john/z28jdDJ,Josh Evans reads this board,occasionally posts, and im sure hes read how many people read this board per day, and its alot higher than you would think.He also knows many are not only bidders in Lelands but also potential bidders and while its not a consensus opinion,it is overwhelming in favor of the auction being in poor taste.I wouldnt doubt the power this board has among auction houses that deal in the vintage card/memorabilia area.
Altho im a huge Pirates fan and therefore a Clemente fan,i didnt start the thread to make a statement towards Lelands choice to auction this item.It has however turned into that thread and when so many people agree,its happened for a good reason.I believe some sort of statement will be released about this topic soon,but probably not here,at least at first.
