Bill Mastro and his crew are even worse than I thought

[I Only Smoke 4 the Cards]

This all sounds like part of the mafia's on going sports memorabilia conspiracy

[slidekellyslide]

I know a guy who used to live here in Lincoln (name given on request in PM) who sold his entire Nebraska football collection dating back in the 1890s with Mastro...Mastro buried the most valuable programs in lots. He tried to get Mastro to pull the lots, but they would not do it. I know the guy sells on ebay, I should send him a message that he may want to send his own letter to the judge.

And now for something completely different....

Did they ever catch the "Gypsies" that stole Lionel Carter's collection?

The real crime here is the Ruth card in question ending up graded a 6. I mean, I wouldn't kick it out of bed for eatin' Funyuns, but that card is a homely lookin' EX-MT 6.

Dan--and the reason for that was? Are you suggesting that Bill won the lot and resold all the "valuable" Cornhusker programs himself? BTW, what is a valuable Cornhusker program? One from a game that Bo Pelini isn't ranting and raving on the sidelines, or one from a game where they have beaten the Badgers? LOL

You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten. Where can you go from there? Where?

I don't know.

Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?

Put it up to eleven.

Eleven. Exactly.



UH.......These go to eleven.

I listened to the entire thing and realized you meant the 3:50 mark.

I have no idea what went on there, I just know what the guy told me. And there are several Nebraska programs that bring over $1,000 each...the first game vs Oklahoma will bring more than $5,000...any of the programs vs Notre Dame from the 1920s....just last year on ebay two 1908 programs vs Carlisle each sold for more than $1,500.

Not sure why you felt it necessary to take a dig at the current program, but eh, whatever. Carry on.

Nothing wrong with being 8-2 from the perspective of this disgusted Michigan alum.

I feel your pain...the Callahan years were not pretty. The Big Ten needs Michigan to make a strong comeback.
