I am a whiny dealer/collector and I have never been to a poor show. IT's all about perspective I guess. I actually think the vintage hobby will be strong for the foreseeable future. I realize the new card hobby needs to get better but it doesn't sound like there has been an answer to that yet.
As for the CBS article, it's the same thing O'keefe and I spoke about 4-5 yrs ago when he quoted me in an article. It's easy to look at the bad and overlook the good. For me there is a ton more good in the hobby than there is bad. Anyone that attends the Net54baseball Dinner at the National will probably agree, between cold ones!!
