I did write that thread. It was in response to members over there constantly questioning my veracity. I had been fed up with the constant BS and decided it was FAR easier to just claim I was a poor man than to defend against accusation after accusation that I was lying. At this point, I really dont give a shit what anyone believes about me anymore....I had been totally honest up till that thread, and it still wasnt enough to fend off the rats.

Kinda looks like it - but not the same thread number.... |
I'm always amused when the problems of the CU board spill over onto Net54. It always seems like the guys who can't get along over there find their way over here.

Notice in that thread how I wanted to share the backs collection I was so proud of, and then the haters, who cant stand it when someone gets something nice, decide to come in and derail the thread? If you cannot see the unprovoked attacks on me in that thread, and the attempt I made in defending myself, then I dont know what to tell ya! |
unreal...this is such grade school nonsense...unbelievable!!! Grow up people!

I have no idea which is the true story and which isn't. Does it even matter?

Not anymore. Like Phil Collins...."I dont care anymore". |
the old phrase comes back
"were you lieing now or then?" ......tough situation. In life, as I have gotten older, I have learned it's just so much easier to tell the truth. If I make a mistake the sooner I fix it, and admit it, the better. This stuff is ludicrous.......I can't imaging concocting a big ole story like that for any reason. But hey, that's just me.

I am getting all these guys mixed up. Who is Phil? The guy who started this thread? |
Life is too short for this stuff.
|
Agreed, life is too short. Who cares what other people think anyway?
You post some of your collection; some people appreciate it, others don't...move on. Drumming up stories and making a big deal of these things makes you no better then the very people who got you upset in the first place. |

JERRY: There's Sidra.
KRAMER: There's Salman. JERRY: Where? KRAMER: Talkin' to that woman. JERRY: Talkin' to Sidra? KRAMER: If that's Sidra, she's talkin' to Salman. JERRY: I don't think that's Salman. KRAMER: Well, I don't think they're real. JERRY: If that's Rushdie, they're real. KRAMER: If they're real, that's Rushdie. JERRY: Well, I gotta know - I'm talkin' to Sidra. KRAMER: I gotta know, I'm talkin' to Salman. |
He took it out.

Some people just look for too much attention on this board...Net 54 is like the Alex theatre.
KRAMER: Look, honey, I know you're trying to get Lloyd to notice you, but this is too much. Parading around in a wet T-shirt. ELAINE: Uhh, I got sprayed with a hose. KRAMER: Yeah, well, I'm sorry, but the Alex is a family theatre, not one of your swing joints. |
GEORGE: What do you do for a living Newman?
NEWMAN: I'm a United States postal worker. GEORGE: Aren't those the guys that lose their jobs and then come back and shoot everybody? NEWMAN: Sometimes... JERRY: Why is that? NEWMAN: Because the mail never stops...it keeps coming and coming, and then the bar code reader breaks, and then it's Publisher's Clearinghouse Week... Okay, enough Seinfeld for today. back to business. |
Yes....please....enough Seinfeld :)
|
From the tone of that post I sure do get the impression he was being
completely sarcastic. I hope you guys aren't just doing this for your own amusement because I can't see how anyone can read that and think it's anything other than a goof. |

Its refreshing to see that my sarcasm was not lost on everyone. |
Is there ? .....
Is there a Seinfeld Sports Forum ... somewhere? :)
|
When Chicago206 came up with these bizarre and contradictory stories, I had no trouble derailing this thread. If we were discussing something even remotely important, I would not have done so.
|
Quote:
I didnt "come up with" anything here in this thread. That was a post that was made in a completely seperate forum...correct? I simply "responded" to the allegations. |
Fair point. But somewhere between this forum and the CU one you told two different stories that contradicted each other. And I found that weird...so I behaved weirdly in turn.
|
You have a short memory .....
Quote:
You once derailed a thread about black baseball players during the 1880's (Fleetwood etc) with an SNL episode. ... I can give you the archive if you like. |
Quote:
We all have a tendency to act "weirdly" when we receive info thats out of context. The little tidbit of info you got (that opening post I made in another forum) was a result of, and tied in with alot of public bashing I had received over on that forum. Below is a taste of what im talking about. You will notice that I wanted to discuss cards, but a few idiots wanted to discuss my personal finances instead. http://forums.collectors.com/message...23&STARTPAGE=1 |

Remember Jerry, it's not a lie if YOU believe it. |
Thanks Joe, but I have a good memory. I know that thread well. You've already archived it.

You're not giving Lloyd Braun the waterpick!

You gotta Luv it .....
One guy is into Fantasies ... but at least he's trying to break out of it.
The other guy is a shutin in one of the most electrifying Cities in the world, and all he does is watch TV re runs 24/7 ... Is there a Seinfeld Sports Forum ... somewhere? :) |
Joe- you know you and I have had a very bad history on this board and I am not going to engage you in any dialogue past this point. I am going to take the high road and exit from this thread. I think it is the best thing, plus nobody wants to see yet one more fight over here.
I was speaking to Leon recently and I actually told him that I thought you have been posting in an exemplary manner, and that since you came back to the board you have avoided fighting with people. And that's a good thing, so I am going to keep it that way. Thank you. Have a good day. |
I wanna know what happened to the D-bag in post #157, who basically came here to say "look mommy...look at what he did....". Must be a very interesting life he leads....he seems to LOVE to start web forum drama. I wonder why he left so soon? Typical D-bag.

Ban
Is a ban being considered for 'Chicago'? (Who knows, maybe he lives in NY). I don't like the idea of fraudsters hanging around this site...
|
I tried to stay quiet, and I hate to enter into these things, but guys, come on. This isn't the CU forum, or at least it didn't used to be. Can we leave CU stuff there. Seriously? That's what makes our forum good and theirs bad. Or that's what used to make it so. Thanks.
IMO, this thread needs to be locked. What can possibly be said that contributes to anything on this thread that hasn't been said? I'm tired of seeing it at the top of our board. I know I'm bumping it by writing, but only in a plea for the moderators to lock it. What's the purpose in letting it continue? |
Bored of Jerry
I don't want to offend any of his fans, but it seems like more and more threads turn into a Jerry Seinfeld love-fest. What gives?:confused:

Quote:
In any event, if total honesty was on the table in the first place, this thread wouldn't even exist. With all the issues going on in life, I see no reason why someone has to be dishonest about baseball cards. |
Quote:
You should be banned for linking MY ebay account in your sigline. Any particular reason you did that Pat? Leon....can I have some help with this please? |
Quote:

Quote:
He's not linked to "your ebay account!" He's linked to ebay, in general. It's not what he wanted to do, but it's NOT a shot at you either! Edit: What Jeff said as I was typing! |
Haha...jokes on me! You can easily see how I made that leap though I hope. Guy calls for my ban and then the link in HIS sigline takes me to my account??? Ooooops!
|
Let's just BAN everyone and start all over. :D
|
Quote:
That leap can only be made if you go through life expecting the worst out of everybody. |
Quote:
Or when people jump into a thread to call for my ban. |
Quote:
Thanks Jim. I could understand what Chicago206 was thinking. If he's like me, I hardly ever log out of my account so I might think something funny was going on too. |
Tell us Barry .....

"I had no trouble derailing this thread. If we were discussing something even remotely important, I would not have done so." Are you saying that the thread about black baseball players during the 1880's was NOT remotely important, and that's why you derailed it? I was the one that pointed out your UNINTENTIONAL highjack, and you considered it an attack. Barry, you can NOT help yourself with your TV re runs. To you, life is a Seinfeld re run. You didn't like that I pointed it out, and you went crying to Leon about what you called an attack. ... Leon listened to you, and that's how it all started. Tell us Barry, is the discussion of black baseball players during the 1880's ... remotely important? ... Or did you, yourself lie, when you made the above statement? Folks, Barry has a track record of running, and hiding. :) |
Ouch!

Ask yourself if it could possibly be, that they are ALL troublemakers. I don't know you. I don't know anything about you. You seem like a nice enough guy. But I know that any thread you're in turns into a tire fire. Is it all a coincidence? |
Quote:
Way out of line, Joe. Barry has a long track record of not wanting to fight on this board. We all, could use a little more of that. |
Thanks Jeff
So MY sigline needs revised b/c it takes users to THEIR account...Obviously a bad link and will get 'er fixed...So to "Chicago" (and others) any and all users previously were accidentally sent to their eBay acct. b/c I did not have the proper tagline inserted. Hey, something useful came out of this thread
|
Out of line ???

Out of Line? Jim ... You just don't know The Goody Two Shoes. :) |

I would like the BS on this board to stop. |
Back to cards fellas.
