Ryan ChristoffThis thread is the standard by which all future hyperbole will measured. It's really amazing to have such a high concentration of it in one thread. In fact, it is the single most important and influential thread in the history of the hobby. More important and influential than all other threads combined. It is rumored to contain 5% of all hyperbole used on Net54.
I think most board members are failing to see what makes the hobby's elite collectors so much more superior to the know-it-all knowledge traders that have no impact on the market. The Crandalls and Bruces of the hobby not only possess unimaginable wealth, but each relies on an extremely desercning eye.
Incidentally, the classic baseball documentary "When It Was A Game" was on HBO today. While I was watching it, I thought of you, Jim.
