I hope this isn't the wrong place to put this, but I figured people would be entertained to see my good fortune.

It’s a marvelous card--obviously nice, neatly inked name.

George, you’re one unparalleled gamer, unequalled Yankee slugger!!!

Well, there's been so much negativity floating around lately, that I decided to do a little thought experiment. I wanted to see if the comments regarding my 'pick up' would venture into the deliriously negative sniping or if they would tend to be more along the lines of, "Sorry, buddy, you got taken." I'm happy to report that the people who chimed in were the latter and not the former. My faith in (baseball card collecting) humanity has been nicely restored!!!

Oh, and I had a hidden message in my original post. Just string the red letters together...
