Default Burdick the Amazing

Posted By: jay behrens

Unless the Met donates the cards to the Baseball HOF, they won't get involved. They rarely, if ever pay for anything. It would be nice to see the card comapnies get together on this, but I doubt they would be willing to work together on something like this. They would want exclusive rights and most likely want to hack up a few cards so they use them as inserts in their packs.

The only way this would get done is for some big time collectors, maybe Olberman and some others, to get together and create a plan to rescue the Burdick collection from the Met. Hell, the Met could just have Mastro or REA acution of the collection and they would get ride of something they don't want and could go buy something they really do want.

I like to sit outside drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home I would be arrested, so I go to baseball games and fit right in.
