Default Future of our collections

Posted By: Bob

The real shame is that you have a generation of kids collecting new baseball cards and immediately checking the price guide to see how much they are worth and slipping them in sheets instead of flipping them, not putting them in shoeboxes by team and looking and re-looking at them, not learning math by figuring out batting averages and pitching ERAs, not swapping them for cards they need regardless of who the players are, not slipping them in the spokes of their bicycles (do kids still ride bikes now or are they too busy with video games?), not "bonding' with baseball cards.
Oh for the good old days!
