Then I thought that that might be disrespectful to Jay, Richard, Joe, so I didn't. Then I realized that you wrote the Corcoran biography, so it was a no-brainer. <br><br><br>Bill

Posted By: <b>john/z28jd</b><p> I never realized how evil this board is. Fred,I was almost 3 months old when Hoffa &quot;disappeared&quot; and living in Kearny,NJ not far from the NY Giants end zone that hes buried in....thats all I'm saying<br><br> Jerry,that's a nice card. As long as Fred doesn't have it,it's okay. If you ever want to sell it you know where to find me<br><br> Bill,you can tear out that page all you want,its programmed to regenerate itself. There is also a hidden message in the biography warning people not to buy his N172 cards. I don't touch any of those other sets he's in,can't people just buy those? Don't you think his N167,N175 and K-Bats cards are nicer!
