Wow, in 3 lines of description I count 5 separate times he says "it could be fake or it could be real" or some variation thereof. If that doesn't inspire confidence, I don't know what would!

This has been pulled. But it seems for every fake that gets pulled down another takes its place.

Why are you so sure it is fake? I am not saying some of these aren't, but the Pat Collins looks okay to me.

I'm no expert but the Gehrig and Ruth looked off to me. I didn't even bother looking at Collins and the others. Besides, if one sig on the ball is fake, that in my mind negates any others that might be legit. Who wants a half-real ball?

Plenty of people want team signed Yankees balls that have legit signatures, but clubhouse Ruth's.
