Gotta find a worthy update!
I'm glad to hear it! Many of my cards I've had in my past only exist as memories and pictures. I'm super thankful I have pics to relive them.

The heavily favoured White Sox lost the 1919 World Series to the Cincinnati Reds, the conspiracy was revealed, and the eight White Sox players — thereafter known as the Black Sox — were banished from baseball for life.

Popular culture has been very forgiving of the Black Sox, however.
