I agree totally Peter. There is a selfish reason for me. I rarely, rarely, prospect on new players. However, I thought with Rooker it was a sure thing so I purchased several of his cards. He didn't work out with the Twins and was traded to the Padres - I kept the faith and purchased more of his cards. He was traded to the Royals - I kept the faith and purchased more of his cards. He was let go from the Royals - I was really second guessing my decision - however, I kept buying his cards. The Athletics picked him up. I thought it was over and ready to dump what I had purchased and maybe recoup 5-10% of what I invested.

I have my fingers crossed that he continues! I would hate to sell all my 1/1 for $1!!!!
