Dan- there is an interesting story about why Copeland quit that may not be that well known. The main reason was he just had enough- he was getting calls from dealers on a daily basis and it was becoming too much. But there was also a baseball card store in his hometown of San Luis Obispo, and the owner was murdered during a robbery. It was too close to home and he worried about his family's safety. Now that's how the story was told to me, so I can't vouch for every detail, as I did not know him personally. |
