Shot at Ken's daughter seems a little unnecessary.

Apparently she graduated from Syracuse with a degree in Economics. I took Intro to Economics freshman year in college and got a C-. And Economics and me parted company forever. I'm thinking she's kind of smart.

The guys, their sales raps sound like they lifted them from the script from Boiler Room. Just nonsensical platitudes mixed with sales-speak and bro-isms. I about fell out of my chair laughing when Ryan said this:

"With a card like this, a true one of one, the first ever that he signed, being second or third to market with a card like this, you're gonna leave tens of thousands of dollars on the table. That's a fact."

Ummm, no, it can't be a fact. The card is a 1 of 1 and the first card Wemby ever signed, as he inscribed it. So explain to me like a ten-year-old how the guy who pulled it from the pack is in danger of being second or third to the market with a card that is literally the only one?

There has to be some sort of drinking game here. Maybe a variation on "Hi Bob" where you take a drink every time the douchebags fist-bump or bro-hug? Of course, if they have a scene where they all meet someone at the same time, you'll be under the table inside of ten minutes.

Hmmmm... maybe not much has changed since the Shop at Home days? But it seems to work.

In retrospect, I decided you were right and I deleted it.
