We already went over this about a month ago...some joker pulled this and said it was the pre steroid barry bonds card.
Pull the image...it's repulsive that people find humor in children starving.

Here's a question: Would you think this was hilarious if it was your kid on the card?
It was an interesting take on the theory of comedy, which is probably why it's stayed with me for so long.
The card would have been funny if a frail, skinny old man was pictured instead...perhaps with Bond's face photoshopped on to the body.
<< <i>So, for instance, a joke about the Duke Lacross team may be funny (though tasteless), but a joke about their accuser wouldn't be. >>
yes it would be funny.. let's hear 'em..
i can't think of any jokes about the stripper, but some people might say the Duke team was TawannaBrawleypwned..
<< <i>I don't like seeing children or vulnerable people, such as young people, getting exploited by any means...such as with online gambling websites and poker forums sucking in underage gamblers who lose all their money. Many high school and college online poker players are losing their tuition money among other things getting enticed and lured into playing online poker when they get hooked on it. Any comments on this Boopotts? >>
We've already covered this-- and my offer still stands. In fact, I can sweeten it for you: I'll turn 1K into 3K in 60 days, and I'll document the entire procedure. If I'm successful, you pay me $1000. If I'm not I'll pay you $1000. How will I do it? By bonus hustling; something my website discusses in considerable detail. In fact, anyone who takes the time to carefully read through my website and put the strategies I introduce into play will make at least 5K profit on a 2K bankroll with essentially no risk.
To clarify: My website isn't designed to glorify gambling; instead, it's purpose is to show people how to extract money through online gaming. I've done it, thousands of others have, and I'm willing to share this with anyone who wants to read though the site.
You don't believe me? That's fine. I'm happy to prove it to you. Just put up the $1000.
It's time to walk the walk, Steve, or just shut up. Either way is fine wth me.
Edited to add: If you're interested in this you should PM me. There's no reason to derail a thread, or otherwise make this a public spectacle. You embarrassed yourself publicly once before when your loud mouth sounded off on this same subject and you went on to turn down this offer, so I don't reasonably expect you to shame yourself by having to skulk away a second time. Just drop me a line in private, and like two grown men we can set up the details of the bet.

Most famous Tawanna Brawley quote -
"No one "manipsmapes" me."

PA, I don't remember much about that whole Tawana Brawley story (I know it's all over the news here in NY)but everytime I see Rev Al Sharpton reminds of Tawana Brawley. She made Rev Al Sharpton famous. He knew Tawana's story's a hoax but he jumped on the wagon to get famous. I think Tawana changed her name, converted to Islam and left NY.
the IDEA is funny (of a desperately skinny "barry bonds rookie" to what he has become)
but the use of a starving child from a CARE segment is tasteless.
could you not just use a skinny black guy? There are plenty to chose from................................................

Boo - overall you're not a bad guy but there are times you act like a little punk...and your post copied here is one of those times. Anyone can use the CU forum search and check these posts for themselves to see how fraudulent your comments here truly are. But whenever you act like a little punk, I'm done responding to you about those points, and you're right...those points had already been covered, so why the f*** did you want to bring it up?
<<< Here's a question: Would you think this was hilarious if it was your kid on the card? >>>
Your comment here is being hypocritical beyond belief.
You of course intentionally didn't seem to want to respond to the real meaning of my comments, even though you should have known what I was refering to. But just so it's crystal clear...Would you think it was hilarious if your kid logged on to a gambling website and gambled away all their money including their college tuition and other things. How about that Boo? What if it was your kid? Would that be hilarious? So it's okay for you to exploit children and young people by enticing and luring them into gambling so that you receive your affiliate program commissions, but not okay to exploit some starving child from Africa? How do you explain that one Boo? Of course there is a difference, but it's still exploitation no matter how you try to spin it.

Just let me know, Steverino. We can work out an escrow arrangement and figure out a way for you to audit my results to your satisfaction. Whenever you feel ready to back up your big talk I'll be right here.
Until then, however, I'll consider this matter effectively close. My next correspondence with you will be via PM, or not at all, since I'm done hijacking threads and generally wasting time by responding to your nonsense.

You're not going to worry about this because it's not your kid that's being harmed, right Boo? But sooner or later you'll get what's coming to you. Somebody, somewhere, at some time is going to be mighty angry at you for enticing and luring their underage child into gambling, and you're going to get sued beyond your wildest belief and possibly arrested and convicted. I believe what you're doing should be grounds for incarceration - you are receiving commissions from illegal businesses engaged in illegal activities. You may want to contact your District Attorney about this before they one day knock on your door.
Before you go bashing someone on the internet, on a message board showing a picture he deemed funny, why not call the networks and have all this other crap stopped? People are so easily offended by miniscule things nowadays, but the way it goes, is not to upset the herd, and everything that is said or read, must be looked over with a magnifying glass, because everyone has to show sympathy for something.
I saw every network show the election of Pope Benedict, I do not care about him, anyone who was, can, or will be in papal authority, but I have to have that shoved down my throat on an almost, daily basis. I am not a religious person, but on occasion, I have to go to a church for a wedding, christening, or something, and I find it highly offensive that it seems, there always has to be a line or two about how it is a sin to be Jewish. Who says, God, the pope, or the priest! I have a couple friends who are Jewish, and they seem like good people to me. Also wonder about the racism in the catholic church, my buddy has a kid, I am that kid's godfather, I do not practice any religion, but it was OK for me to be his godfather, but how can a church tell my buddy, that he can pick anyone to be the godfather, AS LONG AS HE IS NOT A JEW!
I own guns, I have a CCW permit, I enjoy the shooting sports, and I find it offensive that some bureaucrats, reporters, or whatever, try to put me in the same category as someone who screws up. If my life is in danger, I will take another's life to make sure mine still exists, but just because I have that outlook, does not mean I am a killer. I tell some that I own guns, and they look at me as if I am deranged, why is that, because the media has an anti-gun agenda.
What I am saying is, just because you have a view on something, does not mean another has the same view, the original poster found it funny perhaps, some do not, some do, but it is the same thing one sees on network television!
But I did feel sorry fo rthe kid in the picture. Why these people in starving countries keep bringing kids into the world is the sad part.
I guess I am a bad person.
I am a mom and I thought it was funny, not the kid, but the way they set it up.
Come on now!
Sorry, if I offended anyone, but when I first saw it I got a big smile.
I just wish I had Bond's email address.
Thanks for posting it.
Mary

Think that can't happen heh? That distinct possibility has already been brought up by a number of those similar to yourself who own poker forums in the United States.
Now you go make yourself proud and con some more high school and college students out of their money, including their college tuition funds, and also con some more addicted gamblers and others out of their money. Some day you'll get what's coming to you...as do most con artists.
<< <i>SteveK..........this poster has to be given some type of award by you, maybe most iggnorant of the year???? >>
Hey...you know we were just busting chops in that one thread. I don't even remember what the thread was about now. I never let one thread carry over into others. For instance me and Boo have busted each other up a number of times about online poker, but we usually agree on most other things relating to baseball cards. I enjoy Sports Talk and always will, but I still primarily come to the CU forum first for the cards. Can't get enough of them dam cards - LOL
Steve
I hear ya about cards too.
