Corned Beef Hash is by far the best.

I needed a good laugh, and this thread has provided it! Corn beef hash jokes! ROFL

I am not going to the National; however, would be glad to show him around Southeastern PA. Valley Forge, Independnce Hall, etc. Please let me know.

Gorgeous Research
 

Another great example of unfolding research was this thread:

http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=184835

Based on a challenge/question by the original poster whether the players in the ultra-cool White Sox at Royal Gorge postcard had been identified, net54 members, two in particular, proceeded to slowly identify, with photographic comparisions, one player after another (and I think even some of the wives, unless they were kidding!) until all the players were positively pegged. It was really fun watching the mystery unfurl over the weeks.

Hey Eric
Lets see if he can chaperone someone to the National first and if not he can go right out to you. If he does make the National you can be his next stop, if that is ok? Thanks for the offer too. He appreciates it and is looking forward to it (he's been kind of chatty lately).

Herzog
 

Leon, he can tag along at Fan Fest if available.

the archive/bruce thing could be the funniest thing ive read this year! :D

Who is this Begsu1013 fellow?

In his post with regard to the archive/bruce attributes a post to us
that we never made.

We take our posts very seriously, and we believe that attributing a post to
Someone else is a crime.

Begsu1013 please issue am immediate apology.

We are prepared to take further action, if necessary.

no.

Dude you're suing yourself

Which would make no sense for an individual person...

But with The Bruces, you could have Bruce The Plaintiff vs. Bruce The Defendant.

There was one thread which went viral in one day and during the middle of the thread -- Leon and I set up meeting for lunch. That was the most hilarious thread I've ever been real active in.

That works for me. Thanks, Leon. I look forward to showing him my neck of the woods. :)

You forgot about Bruce the Judge, Bruce the Baliff, as well as all the other Brucii in the jury and the gallery.

"Let's see some postcards."

"I'm almost positive this card features Shoeless Joe"

Still one of the best, if not the best threads I've ever seen on Net 54. Also, one of the very best "first posts" in the forum's history, or at least, since I've been here.

It's the perfect example of just how much collective knowledge the members of our forum have. The photographic analysis, and research done to all but confirm the original poster's assertion makes for a great read. I bookmarked it for a reason.

A casual skim of this topic didn't show me that it had been mentioned, which would surprise me.

I agree, Glenn, that's one of the very best. It's the first thread I ever bookmarked.

yes. that was the joke.

Subject Front/Back Combo Completions is still my favorite.

No drama, just various back-runs from different board members. But maybe you have to be a T206 guy to really like this one. :)

Just read all 70 pages. Drama aside it was an amazing read. Was a conclusion ever drawn on the second possibility? I see talk of another newspaper photo, but I didn't see it anywhere.
