I would advise against disputing anything KO says regarding baseball cards lest you be deemed "Worst Person in the World."

Too Late. I've already been honored as Keith's "Worst Person in the World" (see Old Cardboard eNewsletter #72, April 2010).

Lyman......fantastic comeback on your comments on the eNewsletter. Politics do make us divisive too quickly. Unfortunately, between that and religion, many friendships have been lost. A shame we all cant be like Barry & Leon and discuss things in a rational manner. Keith's won items from me on ebay...generally quite a while ago and was always quick with payment and extremely courteous in any correspondence. Hope he does land on his feet although I would always prefer his wit in a Sports, and not political, setting.........

Yes Lyman, I remember that. I thought your reply was great! Gave me a good laugh.

I guess if I can get over being sniped at the last second on an E90-1 Joe Jackson on eBay several years ago by KO, I guess we can all learn to put aside our differences in discussing cards.
I, for one, would love to see Keith be a regular contributor here, he has a wealth of card knowledge to share.

He may lurk here, but he hasn't logged on since December of 2009 so I doubt he'll ever really contribute to the discussion here.

Agreed, and with good reason. He won't bother with boards like this for a simple reason. Threads like this (and the one that got Brucie tossed) are a perfect example. Discussion instantly resorts to a discussion of his opinions and his TV show. There are always a few posters who have to take a back handed slap, even if ever so slight, toward his opinions and chosen occupation.

What he does for a living is entertainment, not news. Some people like it. Some hate it. But it's no different than Rush, Glenn Beck, or Bill O'Reilly (or even John Stewart.) Some people take it way too seriously and that would intefere with anything he said or did here.

He's been collecting a long time and has proven he doesn't "need" an internet message board to be successful at it.

I agree with this statement completely. It's a shame too,but is quite anticipated, given the breadth of the board members.

Brucie got tossed? I guess I missed it.
