A Troubling Hobby Developement

Daniel,

Are you still sore because I called you out regarding your true motivations for criticizing Barry, Leon, and other board members?
Would you like me to provide a CV documenting my collecting experience? That would be silly now wouldn't it? At the end of the day I am thankful for my family, collecting baseball cards is just a nice little diversion that has been a hobby of mine for the past thirty years. Does thirty years make me more knowledgeable than someone who has been doing it for five or ten years? Not necessarily, but I share my experiences and knowledge not to be boastful (again Daniel, they are only baseball cards) but to be helpful and add to the discussion. Whether you want to believe what I or others say is your decision. Do we need to foot-note every documentation?

You are simply an antagonist, and I am embarrased that I am even responsding but want to clarify a few things regarding your personal attacks.

Many of us on this board disagree about grading, collecting styles, what topics should be permitted to be discusessed, etc. However, most of us are open-minded enough to share the knowledge that we have and accept differences in opinion without getting too personal. If you believe that you are too lofty for the board, find a bigger pond.
