OK, I'm trying to be impartial and objective. I've read through the entire thread two more times today to try to take it all in. I just do NOT see it. I think when we want something to be a certain thing so badly, our mind starts to connecting dots and we go from being hopeful to thinking we have proof.
I applaud the level of effort on this and it's been an interesting thread to read (at least for me).Some of the commenters being dismissed by our newly registered optimists (welcome to the board in 2021, BTW) are experts in the field, have written books on photography, early baseball, etc., and are not just being 'disingenuous'. They're giving you their honest , learned opinion that these are both examples of grabbing at straws.
If you want to keep thinking you made the amazing discovery of the Knikerbocker team or George Wright (who wouldn't want either of these to be true?) go right ahead. Please just hear the people who politely disagree. We're fans of this era, of baseball, of it's history, We'd love it to be true, but do not feel that it is. I'm going to fall on the side of Rhett, drcy, and many others on this thread. You don't have to agree with us (you think you have PROOF) just like we don't have to agree with you (we don't think this is PROOF).
