Re: How to get TTM autographs on cards
Mike - I hope you don't mind me adding a couple of tips from and old-school TTM guy. 1) Especially with older players, you'll do well to hand write your requests. AND BE POLITE! The words "pleae" and "thank you" can go a long way to insure success. Yeah, it's real easy to mail merge 1000 requests on your computer, but the… -
Re: Does anyone have a picture of Izzy Switt?
I saw a VERY interesting show, on the Smithsonian channel....titled 'Hunt for The Double Eagle'. Anyone else see it? Very interesting piece in the tracking down of the '33 Double Eagles. Seems the 'chief cashier' named George McCann admittited to stealing coins from the Mint in Philly, and did a year in the slammer...,… -
Re: I have a question for those of you who think MOC is evil incarnate.
Walter was in a completely different league. He was not one bit apologetic for his transgressions. But they had nothing to do with coins except for the victims who were YNs or kids of fellow numismatists. MoC's problem wasn't just what he did to the coins and hte buyers. He wasn't man of coins enough to stand up and admit… -

Re: My pickups from the estate sale of a Royals superfan.

While I will certainly speak at some point with those who know the full story, I'm not certain of the… -
Re: bye
This may well be my swan song post. If it is, so be it. I have met scores of really good people here, and I daresay many will be lifelong friends. Many have commented over the past many years a common theme - this board isn't what it used to be. For various reasons a great many people are no longer here. Some decided that… -
Re: Poll*: Is Poker a Sport?
<< <i>Believe what you want. I could care less. Maybe I'm just lucky or maybe I'm lying. Go on believing what you believe because I'm certainly not going to kill myself trying to prove that I'm a profitable poker player online. I do have one question though- it seems like you're trying to bend over backwards to prove to… -
Re: Bad Bank Check-Fraud- What's Next?-Update!
<< <i>Very frustrating indeed. I find it utterly mind-boggling that the police will go bust a 17 yr. old shoplifter, some kid with a joint, or that they seemingly have all day long to write annoying tickets to tax abiding citizens. But, when it comes to actually going after real white collar fraud, they are as inept as… -
Re: Is this a scam?
Not too often do I get unsolicited contacts from people asking questions as to how I do my lay outs , so I must really suck at that..... but, as recently as today I got an offer in my email from someone who says I can buy the Cheerios Sacagawea that I bid on recently but didn't win , yet this person's ebay i.d. doesn't… -
Re: The latest Paypal scam?
I received 2 paypal scam with my full name on it. The email was in html that's why I know it's a scam because I turned off my html to view my email so every html email I get has no graphics only text format.
