Regarding my Consolidated T206 lists

[tedzan]

First, I have noticed that some of you have jumped to some nasty conclusions, and I'll bet you have not even read my T206 lists. Before you jump to
any more conclusions based on certain people's characterizations of me....check out this link..........

http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=132611

I direct your attention to the bottom paragraph on the 1st post..........

" Many here on Net54, and non-Net54er's elsewhere, have contributed to these surveys over the years. And especially, I would like to give credit to
Scot Reader, Barry Sloate, Barry Arnold, Brian Weisner, Art Martineau, Frank Wakefield, Dan McKee, Bill Brown, Jamie Hull, Lee Behrens, Dan Koochin,
Darren Duet, Drew Apoldite, Tim Cathey, Jim Rivera, Judson Hamlin, Tom Faith, and Irv Lerner .... all of whom have contributed their expertise. "

All of these guys (and many more on Net54) have contributed their inputs to this project since 2005. As of today, from AMERICAN BEAUTY >>>> UZIT,
there are exactly 4074 permutations listed in the above thread.

So, any rational person should consider the following......
If the source of the majority of these 4074 inputs are the above credited group of guys, then are they all "LIARS", too....as I have been accused of ?

Hey guys, I have been collecting T206's since 1981 and my EEngineering mind has kept track of many front / back combos these past 30+ years. Re-
garding these lists, they are not the result of my imagination. They are the sum total of many, many inputs provided to me from many of you and I
simply recorded them. Furthermore, you will note that several of my accusers are in this group. Anyhow, anyone choosing to challenge the accuracy
of any entry is welcome to. I am willing to listen.

Finally, I have to dispel the nasty comments regarding "the mysterious buddy of mine with 6000+ T206's"....that I referred to getting together with at
the National.
Can you say ...... Irv Lerner ? ?

I think certain people here should calm down and get a life

Regards,

Oh my gosh!

First of all you only added the credit section on 4-14-2011 after you were getting hammered for your stunts and stories.

Now on to your new angle a new classic BTW.

Because certain people have helped you add cards to these lists (me too, huh name must have been forgot) these folks added to your lists that you have kept and or typed and trumpeted as the expert then its all guilt by association.

So in a remote way you’re innocent since we didn’t babysit you or helped you once again the victim we have lead to your inaccuracies.

So in your mind we are responsible for you taking lists adding whatever you want to them it’s our entire fault as a whole.

I guess the community also made you claim to have cards you don’t own or post mission accomplished threads for sets that never were. It was a collective that made you take the credit and bask in the ill gotten glory of things that never were.

For those of you who think this is innocent or harmless. Remember it’s these very lists that give us protection.

It’s these very lists that keep us safe and have saved us from bad cards backed by folks with impossible front back combos. Now go around making up combos or claiming things that never were and we have a problem that goes beyond Ted’s ego.

See people get to talking cards that don’t exist get to being talked about how rare and has anyone ever seen one Ted himself has done this on countless occasions.

Next thing you know the scammers have a new project watch how quick that combo comes up and sell for big bucks now’s there’s a market for something to be faked..Nodgrass or Overprints anyone?

Ted you like to use the term rational a rational person would fess up to making a mistake would eat humble pie when caught in a fish story.

Rational people don’t when anyone disagrees with them in a nice way or point out mistake take no ownership say “I was testing you” or worse start a tainted thread with selective and false information to prove they are right.

You are willing to listen…really did this just start because you haven’t been.

As for Irv Learner who knows Ted you're like the boy who cried wolf at this point I can't tell where reality begins and fiction ends.

As for my life and calming down easy that’s a two part answer.

First stop lying and dragging innocent collectors into nowhere land and I won’t be so upset.

Second regarding my life very happy in fact my life plain rocks Ted it’s really sweet guy no joke!

I hate to brag but since you asked....

My life rocks so much so that I have never felt the need to come onto a baseball card chat board and lie about things I don’t own, or post fake scans or tell people I sold cards at shows I never had. It rocks so much so I never even got around to weaving elaborate fairy tales. I have also been so engrossed in my super amazing life I have yet to have the time to rub in folks faces how generally awesome I am as a collector and my achievements over a life of collecting, hence the need I have no value of their opinion yep been busy.

That’s how much my life rocks and yours how you holding up?

See not so funny without the photos now huh?

John

P.S. You still just won’t admit you lied you know and have accepted that many of us even ones you listed know you are caught red handed here, yet the play now is to toss us aside and gather the ones who may not know all the time digging in deeper and deeper unreal.

Ted, you forgot to add the contributors paragraph on Post #26 in the original thread. You copied all of post #1 in Feb 2011 up to and including your sign-off and it's not there.

Ted,

Thanks for the lists and compiling the information gathered. It has been an asset to my current shot at the monster. Look forward to seeing you and all the Net54 crew in Chicago.

Ted,

Thanks for all your hard work. I have met you numerous times at various shows and you are a gentleman and a scholar. I enjoy speaking + hanging with you everytime i see you. Mistake or no mistake, who cares! No one should bash you regardless. Keep doing what you do! I look forward to seeing you at the next show and having an enjoyable time as usual. Just know there are tons of people out there who still look to you as a friend and prominent member of the hobby. I believe that to be the majority..
