Why do you collect T206's as opposed to other cards/sets?

Tim...I meant no offense...ok...T206 is more like the girl in 6th grade who'd let anyone "cop a feel" in the coat closet...we all have fond memories of her...but...you know?!

Thanks on behalf of all of us fathers of sixth-grade girls.

I think it's funny non-T206 collectors are now "elitists!"


....and the cards we collect are now categorized as "oddball"

At times it seems this chatspace should be renamed net206.
It will be interesting to watch the T206 collecting craze evolve (devolve).
I remember when everybody was hot for OJ's, then E cards, and even some of those wierd D cards

There are no boundries. No limits. No rules. Isn't that what we all strive for? In this world of government and rules and regulations "we" have the T206 set. Those of us that collect feel superior in a way .... we don't bow to the priest or worship the wench ..... it is what is is. A set that never ends. It's the you and the me of the world.
It's the colors, the players, the history ...... when my story ends it's going to live in the next guy. It just never stops......... "furthur" comes to mind (for those of you who know the bus).

"Furthur" is a state of mind and not a destination. None of us T206 collectors expect to get anywhere ..... it's a state of mind and not a destination.

Based on that statement...it sounds like t206 collectors are the real elitists!
