I don't see any outside reason, steroids; drugs; gambling; infidelity; etc. ever causing damage to Pujols' legacy. Hence, I don't see any cards nose diving in the future. I think they will peak at the end of this season - stay flat for about 4 years - then rise slightly when he goes to the Hall as a first ballot member. I've struggled with selling or keeping my rookie autograph and I've decided to hold onto it. He is the only member of the 700 club that one could obtain a certified rookie issued autograph. Also, you don't see stickers on his rookie cards as they are all hard signed that I'm aware of. I have autographed cards of Aaron. I don't have any of Ruth. I don't care about Bonds. So, I may just make this one part of my permanent collection.
What is everyone else going to do - keep or sale?
Thanks for keeping this thread alive and please keep it going until the end of the play offs!
