What does my being a Mets fan have to do with it? I explained why I felt scooter729 shouldn't get the ball signed. It's a perfectly legitimate reason.
I'm also into original comic book art and when I've bought pieces directly from the artist, I do
not ask them to sign it. I remember one convention where I bought a page from the artist who drew it, and as I was getting my credit card to pay for the piece he signed it without asking first. I cringed but there was nothing I could do at that point. Just as the game-used ball wasn't signed when it was used in a game, the page was not signed when it was used to produce the comic book, so I don't want it signed after the fact.
How does being a Mets fan play a part in forming that opinion?
