Re: Cool game to play to test your baseball knowledge
galaxy27 asks GRP... but are you a Bears fan too? I used to be until about 1979 ish...77 Bears-Cowboys was a heart/hart-breaker...then again in 79 against the Eagles and that was it for me.... Yes the 85 season was Magical and after that just a bunch of Pish-Posh.... Yep I used to be a south-sider right near the Sky-Way… -

Re: 2022 College Football thread
@Tabe, my bad with getting the Mc's confused. Scoring plays of 69 --- 75 --- 45 --- 75 --- 85 yards accounts for 349 yards on five plays!!! That's staggering and nothing I can remember ever seeing. Ryan Day and Jim Knowles should be ashamed of themselves and the players need to really search themselves to find out what's… -

Re: Great Collections Auctions
Yes. both buying and selling runs the whole gamut. I have sold numerous coins. My split would be 20% sold for more than I expected. 20% sold for less than I expected . 60% of the time coins sold for just what I expected. Same ratios apply to profit/loss. Buying coins is a little murkier but again there is a variety of… -
Re: Major League Baseball starts today
I think your passion for the Red Sox is clouding reality. When you don't have the horses, you can't win the big prize. No harm in watching every game, I know your situation and hope you enjoy the season. Until the likes of Cora (the cheater) are gone and management wakes up instead of hiding behind sabermetric nonsense and… -

Re: I'd appreciate some advice
I absolutely love the Bowman Chrome Brady card, but agree it’s last on this list, especially in any grade less than a 9. I’d put Ruth #1, and not restrict myself to the Goudey. There are several investment-worthy Ruth cards out there. I prefer his RC over the Goudey. His Uncle Jacks is extremely rare and really cool, but… -
Re: Any gold nugget collector/buyers/sellers out there?
I used to buy and sell nuggets years ago! I think I paid 85% of spot for them but I bought them directly from a miner. I believe they were somewhere in the gram and a half range. These nuggets were 92 to 98 % pure. I live in idaho so that was fairly easy for me to do. When ebay took all of the profit out I quit. In fact I… -
Re: Will the coming banking rule of $600 transaction reporting, push the price of silver and gold up?
That's my understanding which is why almost all middle class people will hit the threshold. Even if they exempt salary deposits, as has been indicated, you still withdraw that money or use it to pay bills. Again, I don't really care that much. But any suggestion that this will only apply to the rich is inaccurate, not to…
