Frank WakefieldI go missunderstood...
And your opinion will remian based on what you thought I meant, instead of what I meant.
I think it is great card, I'm ok with the 8 it got. The guys that whine about it and find its faults would probably be upset with the lottery folks when they win Powerball, mad because the lottery people expect the winner to drive down to the office. These guys would want milage reimbursed.
I'm serious about the $40. And I'm serious about busting Cobb out, he's committed no crime that would deserve perpetual entombment in plastic.
I guess I could have remained silent, but silence is misunderstood, too.
My point for those faultfinders, is that the green Cobb is a great card. It doesn't look like it has perfect corners, but it looks "8" enough for me.
I regret you perceived that I was maligning the condition of the card. My sarcasm went misconstued. However, in another thread I'm quite serious about how neither Pete Rose, Kirby Puckett, nor Gary Carter should be in the Hall. Without equivocation.
With kind regards,
Frank.
