Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Corrected, there were a couple of words I couldn’t make out so I guessed at them so that might not be the only mistake.

Yes, it's a hobby for the well-heeled millionaires. Who else could afford to play?

But, every now and then, I get thrown a bone or table scrap to allow me to pretend.

2044, I can’t even imagine. I am sure prices will continue to go up desirable cards. More auctions, more vaults? The possibilities are endless.

All new cards will be digital only. Counterfeits of significant vintage cards will be rampant.

If in the future all new cards are digital, what happens to grading companies? At some point most of the “old” cards that need to be graded will have been graded.

New advances in doctoring will keep the break out, work on, and resubmit game going for quite some time. Every card will be an 8 or better. The card cleaning line of products will expand to recoloring, trimming, crease removal (well we are sort of there already) and corner rebuilding, it will all be natural and undetectable and people will zealously defend it to the death.

Perhaps the only “positive” among all the predictions here.
