Posted By: <b>DJ</b><p>When I awoke today, I knew for a fact that some time, during the day, I would come across the words 'craphouse rat'. Thanks Adam!<br /><br /><img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />DJ

Posted By: <b>Wesley</b><p>I like "can of ham" better. In any event, that is the first time I have heard either of those sayings. Kudos Adam.

Posted By: <b>Adam J. Baxter</b><p>the "nuttier then a canned ham" phrase is a nonsensical one that I use around the house all the time. I deleted it because I didn't want to confuse poor Tom any worse then he is already. He seems to have a hard enough time understanding things like: "Don't post any threads on the board about the Ruth!"

Posted By: <b>Adam J. Baxter</b><p>Actually Julie, rats will eat just about anything. They've even been known to eat fake Sporting News Ruth's from time to time.

He decided that Joe Orlando himself had swapped his real card for a fake one.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/V_B_C/Thorpe_psa.jpg"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/V_B_C/thorpe_reject.jpg"> <br /><br /><br />Bonus nuttiness: the top secret "Ruth rookie" that Tom found & no one will acknowledge. It's a video capture from "Pride Of The Yankees", as it turns out.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/V_B_C/tommy_ruth.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Tom</b><p>I believe that PSA had a buyer for my Jim Thorpe card and the reason why is because when they contacted me in the very beginning they said NAME your PRICE. I never told any of you that I received an email which I still have today concerning my card not the one PSA sent back to me. Bill my card is just as real as you are, but if you say it's a fake well that your choice. Let me ask just one more question? I have not been active on this topic for sometime, but everytime The Sporting News set comes up my names and my pictures comes up on this forum. I find this extremely strange and even more interesting to say the least. Good evening!

When someone didn't get it or did something stupid, he would say, "That boy is dumber than a box a rocks. Then again, that would be an insult to the box of rocks."<br /><br />Jay<br><br>My place is full of valuable, worthless junk.
