Babe Ruth's 1927 WS Ring

We should cut him slack because he collects baseball memorabilia? What does that mean?

Yes. It means exactly what it says.

I think I am too ignorant to discuss the scam that Sheen was victimized by.
Let us just say it was for a lot of bucks and they saw him coming from a mile away.
And as far as his kids,,, on The Today Show this am, he openly talked about them being taken away by the police.
And I don't believe his wife has a say in the matter of him having shared custody of them. And The Today Show did report that his wife is now filing for sole custody.

You win some, you lose some. I have no clue what was or is in his collection, but if that Ruth ring is any indication, there must be some primo stuff. It's tough to believe the great Sheen was taken in by a scam but shit happens.

The great Sheen ??
The guys who took him are still laughing about it and enjoying his money, although the main perpetrator could be in China by now. His whereabouts are unknown, though he was very "popular" for a while.
And if Halper can get taken then why can't Sheen?

Charlie keeps saying that he's WINNING... but I'm not sure about it.

I think he's in for a doozy!

Anyone that has any experience with bipolar manic depression can see through Charlie in less than a minute. I feel sorry for him. He is delusional. My brother passed away last year, the month of his 50th birthday. He had similar traits as Charlie and was diagnosed as a bipolar manic depressive person. Charlie needs in house therapy in a bad way. (that means in a hospital, every day...for quite some time). It is very sad to watch. Anyone that doesn't think so is either delusional or doesn't understand the illness, imho.

I would never aspire to be like him, but I try not to judge. He is what he is.

He looks like a heart attack or cardiac arrest waiting to happen.

Even when he's not on "drugs", I wouldn 't be surprised if he has enough legal substances in his system (caffeine, nicotine, alcohol, energy supplements, etc.) to drop an elephant.

The body can't withstand that forever.........even with Tiger blood coursing through ones veins.

I will admit this whole circus has been a little bit entertaining to me on some sort of primitive level I'm not exactly proud of.

I do hope it ends soon though. Any media outlet that doesn't think they're just enabling him by covering this, is just as deluded as he is.

Oh, he's winning all right. Winning in every way, every day.

Well I guess Bill is a fan. That's fine with me.
