This thread reminds me of the show roast. If only Don Rickles was still with us. Agreed any kind of positive hobby exposure is good. Look at the show Pickers and storage wars. It’s all about the enticiapation of striking it rich with a “find”.

Exposure isn’t good for collectors if it drives up prices even further. There are a lot of people in this hobby for the joy of collecting, not for monetary gain. There are a lot guys already at the point where they’d have to sell something in order to afford something else and that’s not a fun place to be.

But the great thing about sportscards is that there is such a wide range of prices and cards that it's possible for almost anyone to collect at some point on the spectrum.

I had shifted to buying the stale, rock hard gum that used to be included in the packs. But after breaking a tooth, I had to exit the hobby completely.
