3000 HIT BALL & RAFFY

I HAVE A 3000 HIT BALL THAT TOOK OVER 4 YEARS TO COMPLETE UNTIL RAFAEL PALMERO GOT 3000. SHOULD I ADD HIM WITH ALL THE STEROID TALK OR SHOULD I NOT ADD HIM TO MY BALL. IN THE LONG RUN WHAT WOULD BE BEST. I'M LEANING TOWARDS HAVING HIM SIGN IT. THANKS PAUL.

    I DON'T KNOW WHAT DO YOU THINK I THINK RAFFY DOESN'T DESERVE THE HOF AND HIS 3000 IS TAINTED SO I WOULDN'T BOTHER ESPECIALLY SINCE HE WAS SO ARROGANT WITH HE MADE HIS TESTIMONY THEN AGAIN IF YOU'RE A RAFFY FAN THEN IT DOESN'T MATTER I SUPPOSE.

    um, he got 3000 hits, as a MLB player....Pete Rose signed the ball, right? if Raffy doesn't sign it, kinda defeats the purpose....if it necessary to make asterisk distinctions at this point, ask the offenders to sign a separate ball

    I have heard rumors that steroid use impairs your ability to distinguish the difference between the "caps Locks" key being on or of, and/or you creating run on sentences without punctuation.

    3,000 hits. I would have him sign it.

    I would lean on having him sign it. Maybe you'll want to have him put an asterisk on his signature. image

    He should sign. He did get 3000 hits. Have to keep the theme going.

    Now I wouldn't invest in single signed raffy balls.

    Have him sign it! He's a great player that 'accidentally' ingested some unknown substance. image

    Okay, so he took steroids....from some of the reports it seems that it was running rampant around those timeframes. So, if everyone (or a large percentage) was on the juice, he still outperformed many during those years.

    Mind you, this is an opinion from the guy with the #1 Rafael Palmeiro PSA collection image

  • IT REALLY DEPENDS IF THERE IS ROOM ON YOUR BALL SO HOW WHITE IS IT ANYHOW AND WHAT COLOR ARE THE SIGNATURES ALSO 3000 IS A GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENT SO THAT IS A VERY NICE BALL BUT YOU SHOULD ALSO BE CAREFULL ABOUT RAFFY BECAUSE HE MIGHT GET MAD BECAUSE PEOPLE SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT HIM BUT THAT IS JUST MY OPINION.

    Still shocked that he was a user. I never would have guessed it. One of the nicest swings in recent memory. You should put him on the ball. Besides it was the B12 shot.

    Considering that roids don't help with one's ability to hit, they just add more power and head mass, I would have him sign it. However, if space on the ball is an issue, I'd just wait until someone else like Biggio to get 3000, and axe palmeiro.

    Looking for Jonny Gomes cards, especially Triple Threads and printing plates. Will consider all cards, though. Got something? Contact me at c_u_l_1@yahoo.com
