Marked "BOB" on the back which is a marking the Hall of Fame put on their items.

Was this card or a similar one reported stolen from the HOF? If not that's a pretty strong accusation to make about a card up for auction.

It's not an accusation, it's a possibility. That marking is unquestionably a hall of fame public domain marking. Also note the white out with a name written over it at the bottom of the card.

Wow. The "BOB" thing looks EXACTLY the same......fortunately, criminals are rarely bright.

I would suggest someone contact Brian. Continuing to run the lot, in my opinion, is a bad idea.

I sent them a message but I suggest others do so as well.

Pete Nash will be pleased you used his work as factual support for your assertion.
Looks like they pulled it.

I'm actually surprised he didn't catch this. Maybe he can't afford internet service any longer?

As long as you keep championing his research I suspect he'll be fine.

Nash isn't always wrong or lying though, that's almost the worst part about him... Almost.

Yeah, I'll bet deadspin is going to cut him a check for the few hundred extra hits that old article will get. He's been virtually silent since his sugar daddy went to prison and I'll bet his actual daddy has cut him off because of that whole embarrassing moment.
Maybe you can send a few bucks his way by purchasing a song or two on itunes.

Maybe you can stop using his research as support for your assertions on Net 54 and then we won't have to talk about him again.

You’re barely above troll level anymore. Try harder.

If I tried as hard as you everyday I'd be unemployed.
