Default "Roast Me" Thread
Here are the rules:

You display one card from your collection. Only one card in the beginning please as to allow adequate time for proper roasting of posted cards.

All comments should be in good taste and not insulting to the poster. If you don't get along with someone and what you might say could be taken wrong then please DO NOT post it.

Pretty much that is all I have for rules. Happy Roasting Net54!

That card is dirtier than Babe's uniform. And who would buy a card that isn't in color?

Probably before color photos, much like color TV was unheard of until the early 1960's.

Who is this "Babe" who is "King of them all?" And anyhow, babies rarely make effective rulers.

+1 I wonder if he could follow a runner stealing with one eye while the other eye is focused on something else?

Buckner- card looks trimmed= 2 sharp corners, but rounded on bottom corners
Also may get the MK designation..appears someone took and put a mustache on him.

King- Damn! I am surprised he was able to write his name.

Just think if he had picked up this routine grounder, the Mookie Ball would be worthless.

Fist pic is of the card when I won it at auction here on Net54. Second picture is what it looks like now. Not professionally done but it looks way better to me with the borders of another 39 Play Ball added.

Wee Willie Keeler was known for saying "hit'em where they ain't".

Buckner was the exception to the rule.
