Rob- something tells me that if we were choosing sides for the Net54 softball team, you would be the first one picked.

Default Me, in a nutshell

I can occasionally be counted on for non-T206 input, somewhat akin to Rhett, but a minor-league version of him. And I pretty much limit myself to being helpful and informative, and let the masses duke it out amongst themselves. And I offer a lower condition collector perspective...and feel I let the mediocre have their voice (because they are a rather meek bunch prone to be eaten by the sharks). And sometimes my version of humor.

Actually, he does. Just not very often.

I bring a desire to learn as much as I can and help when I can. Maybe if I'm lucky one day I'll "reinvent the wheel."

I am the official NET54 thread killer.

Seriously, I occasionally help with some obscure sports fact or identification.

Hmmm...interesting. Looking at the few times he posted it was all during a time when my wife started having difficulties in her pregnancy...I was posting a bit during that time, but not reading hardly anything.

I contribute almost nothing to this board but at least I don't make it worse with this kind of trash. The good information on this site is often negated by having to read this sort of thing. Very unpleasant.

Celoknob,

David was referring to himself and being self-deprecating.

As for me, I have absolutely no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Just ask my wife.

I think once Wonka provides that Titus card with a pair of eyeglasses, it'll be a helluva avatar.

Default What do you bring to the board?

I feel because I am a dealer and a collector that keeping an eye on things in the hobby is always a positive so I can contribute more when others have questions. The site is a great resource and I like being apart of it when have the time.

Hey, how do you like my new avatar?
Where's Wonka? I want my own T206.

I won't say what I bring, but I will say what separates this Board from others is cleanliness and maturity. I like to think that I contribute every so often, but for the most, I enjoy the education I get from many of the good posters. Leon does a great job in weeding away the nonsense that other boards seem to thrive on (I get like an ice cream headache when I visit the CU Board with flashing avatars, huge banners and some of the idiots o'er there). The idiot quotient here is limited, which is good, and most didn't make the transition for some reason to the new board. Where's that pro golfer guy anyways? You know the one I speak of?

Maybe. If we play with a DH.
