i dont know why crandell didnt post it here.

Jim, didn't like the new format of the forum when we switched over so he decided not to post on Net54 Baseball.

Perhaps because many of us consider his 'achievement' to be a dubious one...

I think this link might be appropriate...not that there is anything wrong with the way anyone collects....

Isn't the non-sports site the same format is the new Net 54?

The non-sports site is similar to the old Network54 vintage baseball card board.

Jim did not like the new site. Too dang high tech and too many bells and whistles for his liking.

No, it's the former format isn't it?

In most ways it's exactly the same. You type up your message and you post it. Never understood why Jim hasn't joined us. Jim, if you are reading this, hope you are well. And congratulations on hitting the collecting century mark.

well jim, i see you are still pounding your chest to alert the masses to your psa flip accumulation. i do think obtaining 100 sets is an outstanding achievement. having to do a "lebron james" type of announcement is beyond me. what amazes me after all these years, are the amount of very wealthy and very astute collectors who have tremendous collections, but are humble, and do it quietly. randy stuckemeyer, don spence, scott ireland, marty quinn, bill b, ect,ect... would never make this kind of announcement. they leave their work on the registry to do all the talking.

so, congratulations, 100 sets in psa 8 or better.

you havnt made a single post here in months (non sports side), but the one that you do is all about you , and now your waiting for people to congratulate you. you even sat by the computer and answered every person one by one on this thread.

have a great party, make sure the cake has at least 8 candles, as you would only have "8 or better"

Am I missing something? Did Jim Crandell make a post here about his 100th set? I don't see it. If he didn't, then why is he being criticized here?

[calvindog]

Because he's not here.

hey rob, just asking, is that an ant as your avatar? is there a special meaning behind it?

Just a suggestion: Maybe you could post your criticism of his post on the board where he made the actual post.

It's a pissant. Draw your own conclusions.

thanks for the avatar answer. it makes sense now.

No problem. At least that's clear for you now.
