This has to be one of the stupidest comments I've ever read on this site. Seriously.

It was just an observation by the poster. This is why I never spoke up in school.

Manny everything is linear here in each thread. There are several sections for discussions on various subjects, as well as sections for items for sale or trade. If everything were organized into one time line it would be next to impossible to find what you're looking for.

Also, you don't have to quote another members response to reply in a thread. This is done by some so it's clear what their post is in reference to.

I reread that...I was too harsh, my apologies.

This place is a nice respite from endless baby pictures, political commentary, and stupid viral videos that dominate Facebook. The content sometimes delves into the gutter here, but at least it's still generally focused on baseball cards.

Why people want to make a public spectacle of their private lives escapes me.

Put down the iPhone, stop blogging and uploading and playing video games and lol'ing, and actually interact with people.

Says a guy who probably uses that same technology to scroll through hundreds (scratch that...thousands) of eBay and Auction House listings each week to find a baseball card gem! I for one, am on a bus on the way home with my head buried in my cell phone reading Net54! My guess is there are many baseball card collectors who have had fewer than 10 face-to-face interactions w/ a fellow collector. I have had about four such interactions in my 15+ years of "serious/non childhood" collecting. The OPs question is not that far-fetched.

I agree that the poster's question is very reasonable. It also seems reasonable to me for Net54 to have a Facebook page simply as a compliment to the real deal, just like countless other agencies, businesses and organizations. It would certainly increase Net54's exposure, if that's what is desired.

I see people walking down the street, or sitting at tables with their friends, who literally cannot take their eyes off their devices for more than a couple of seconds at a time. This cannot be a good thing for them or society. Even in professional meetings younger people especially have one eye (or even two) on their devices much of the time. And what compels people to put their daily lives online for all the world to see, I truly don't get that.

Besides, I'm blocked from the Facebook site at work, and Net54 is allowed, ha!

And this may be one of the most classless. Seriously.
Nice way to welcome a new member.

Don't let it bug you Manny, I still say you could pick it in the field better than any other second baseman of your era.
