Holy BeJesus! I think I am bleeding. Check the corner of my mouth. A feeding frenzy way cool! I am glad I was able to bring so many people closer together at my expense. See, and you didn't think I had an objective. Any publicity is good publicity?

In closing, I would like to say that several years ago, I found an original T206 find down in the Fells Point area of Baltimore. Loaded with South League players and most of the cards were in great shape!

I sent 600+ cards to SGC and Scott graded most I believe. I didn't have a complaint about a single card. Scott even said to me "WOW" all of those cards and not a complaint. I felt they were graded perfectly and I still have about a dozen of them. 5s 6s and 7s I believe.

Anyway, I actually felt a couple were over graded by 1 grade. The green Cobb was holdered a 5 and I thought it was a 4.

So maybe standards have changed, grades are much tougher, who knows.

I am glad most of you enjoyed a healthy chat.

Jay Miller! Thanks for asking about pops. We had a 90th birthday party for him 2 weeks ago though he actually hits 90 on the 22nd of this month. He was very happy to hear that you asked about him.

Hopefully I will start posting the Old Judges next week.

Dan
