Iconic shot. Apparently Gehrig was absolutely bullsh*t at Ruth for coming forward with an unexpected big dramatic hug. By that point Gehrig was done with Ruth and they had barely spoken for years. Reportedly Gehrig looked at it like one more self-engrandizing move by Ruth to hog the spot light and try to come off as a great guy. Of course none of this comes through in the picture.

I think it comes through. I saw it and said Lou doesn't look happy. A very polite smile.

Congrats. I have always loved this pic...got mine in 1989 or 1990 when I was 15 years old. Paid $200. Guy who sold it to me immediately regretted it.

Agreed David.

Also, Joey is "at it again" Lance.

He came to me with a trade. Texting me constantly.. After I said I would think about it. I then accepted and "crickets". I had one of the photos in the works with another trade. Here I found out he sold one of the items after I accepted HIS trade.
He came to me with another story..
Remember his "my house got broken into" story?

This one:
http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=187925

It appears he is over extending himself again and not following through with his deals which negatively affects others.
He really needs to Just stop. Also, those that bail him out and then sell to him then bail him(buy back for less 1 day later-example)and sell to him need to stop anabling him. I know it's no ones responsibility to do so but man.. It's not good.
He clearly uses this place as a bst(not suppose to).. To show his stuff and then sells. I don't feel bad for him anymore. There needs to be a limit to the amount of strikes one gets.
