Who "Lived" Through 9/11

I "Lived" through 9/11, and the jersey is meaningless to me. (BTW, have you got a problem with your shift key?)

Agreed. It is completely meaningless to me as well. Even if it was a game I had watched, I doubt the jersey would have much meaning to me. The memory of the actual hit? Sure. The ball that was hit? Maybe. But not the jersey, which I don't view as really playing any role in the events of that day. Still happy for the auction house, happy for the consignor, and happy that those who the jersey means something to will have the opportunity to see it.

The memory of the HR has a lot of meaning, I would think to many.
I was in Philadelphia setting up at the Philly card show and my son was at Shea Stadium. I would have been there with him if I had not been doing the card show. I got back to my hotel room with a couple of innings left and did see the HR. It is a very strong memory for me and I was very, very glad that my son was at that game.

Same guys trolling every message about Goldin for past three months. We all get it . You don't like Ken and Chris. Time to move on. Point of this thread was the incredible publicity job he got for the piazza jersey and price he got his consignor. Not to hear your same old boring story over and over. Wish I was the consignor for that jersey :-) $$$$$$$

I agree. Getting tired of the same ole song. We get it. Someone needs to push the needle on the broken record. Not saying new stuff, or even old stuff, shouldn't be talked about. But at some point it has to be time to give it a rest, at least on this board.

Sorry to post but I was just catching up on this thread and noticed that Ron has deleted all of his posts. Hope this is not going to be taken as a "broken record" but it seems like someone is using intimidation techniques to quiet critics. First it was the Ruth mitt thread and now this one.

My first thought was the opposite: that Ron was trolling Goldin. Can you point me to one actual incident of Ken using intimidation on someone here? I asked about the C&D letters in another thread and nobody responded.
