You both have it right. They (the alphabets) are only offering an opinion. And too many take that opinion as fact (because it sells), so they have taken undue license with the issuing of those opinions. Shady business, to be sure, but what is new in sports memorabilia?

If the alphabets don't clean up, they will go away. We will still be here.
