So, I've been member of online trading/collector communities in the past that have held a 'Honor System' Bracket Challenge...where every member puts up something of similar value as an entry fee to participate, and then at the conclusion they mail the prize they put up to the winner of the bracket challenge.
It's lots of fun, and you can win some really cool random stuff, which is (in my opinion) better than winning $ lots of times :)
So, is there any interest among this community to do a bracket challenge? I'm thinking an 'entry fee' could be something along the lines of a $20 or so vintage whatever sport card/artifact/auto/whatever you got that is fun that you're willing to risk?
Since I'm fairly certain there will be interest in this, I've gone ahead and set up a group on ESPN.com
Go Here and Search for "Net54Baseball.com" (http://games.espn.go.com/tournament-challenge-bracket/2016/en/groupfind)
The Group Password is "Mantle" (without the quotes)
Since I'm getting this started, I guess it is on me to post what I'm putting up as my Entry Fee...Well here it is, single signed ONL Gaylord Perry Baseball
