best net 54 threads of alltime?

[Gradedcardman]

My vote for the trainwreck thread award goes to Bruce for his continued arrogance over an extended amount of time...Thanks Leon for finally putting that to rest !!

The best information based thread IMO goes to Ted for the compiling of the checklists for the T-206's. I refer to that thread weekely !!

Yes, Bruce threatened to sue Mr.Archive. That is the funniest I can recall.

There are too many good threads for me to say which I think would be the best. Certainly Ted's T206 threads, even with a few issues surrounding a bit of the data, are some of the best. I think we all need to be very careful when assimilating, and making public, data which is verified. This aspect of data collection goes all the way back to Burdick's days.

The letter to STATS, on authenticity, was the most replied to thread.

And lastly there was one when a famous authenticator got called out pertaining to authenticating bats/gloves he was selling, which changed the hobby a bit, vis a vis transparency and conflict of interest. That was one of the best to me. regards

Bruce Dorskind threatening to sue himself was the funniest thread of all time

Generally, I think of the train wrecks as the worst threads, not the best. The best are the ones that provide useful and informative information about cards.

Well said Jim and I couldn't agree more.

I hate to bring him up again, but I loved reading the threads by Peter C. At least the first hundred, they did get a little old after awhile. My overall vote has to be the night of the Skdash Find. What an exciting night!

The trainwrecks are just sad...

I tried to find it without success, but if someone can dig up the Joe Jackson t206 proof from April Fools Day several years ago it was a fun one. I remember going from "Yeah, good try" to "Holy Crap, Leon says it's legit!" back to "Burned, should have seen that coming."

I like watching police shows/movies on tv and reading about the crooks/scammers here. My favorite was the one a few years ago about the guy selling a raw t206 on ebay (I forget the player). The front picture showed 4 rounded corners. The back picture showed 4 corners sharp enough to cut your enemy's throat.

I will second that. Ted's T-206 list and Phil's Earliest Collectibles list are probably the two most important and informative list's that have been compiled for these threads. Phil's got the HOF Rookie card list started as the "Earliest collectibles counterpart, and that should prove equally as important. There was the "HOF rookie card A-C" thread that got started a while back, that allowed for the "latest acceptable" rookie cards to also make the list. I think with a little work and obvious completion, that might be a great list as well to go along with Phil's lists.

I liked the T202 Joe Jackson and the Lost "Magie error" card at PSA lawsuit.
