No question that Koufax was the GOHT (Greatest of his time).
Just back from the private signing is the line-up card from Game 4 of the 1963 World Series, signed by Sandy. At 88, still a very nice signature. According ot the guy supervising the signing, he spent about 5 minutes looking at this item, as it apparently brought back some memories. I would have loved to have been there to ask him his thoughts. Rick dodgers signed by Koufax reduced by 50 and 50.jpg

Something bothers me about calling the loss leader (315) in major league baseball the best pitcher of all time.
If the truncated career of Koufax was too short, then I guess the elongated career of Cy Young was too long. If Cy Young is the GOAT, then George Blanda is the GOAT, best QB, of all time. One could put Cy Young in the same basket as McGinnity, if you consider the Iron Man's minor league stats, that nearly equal his major league stats, with 470 total wins and 343 total losses. Their records suggest that in the 1890s and early 1900s, the disparity between the bigs and the minors may not have been that much.

As for me, I’d love to get a Koufax auto one day, but on my budget, I can’t warrant spending that much. I’m a full time student, so the PC money I do get I use deal hunting, unfortunately Koufax isn’t the kinda guy I can find for $50 and lower, maybe if it was 2005 😭😭😭LOL.

Saw this article on Yahoo today about an event signing Brady did where people were charged $3,600 for autographs. These people are very angry with the quality of "autographs" they got:
