Default OT But Quite Interesting

I was fishing through some random celebrity gossip (dont judge) and ran across this deadspin article from 2011 about Charlie Sheen and Babe Ruth's 1927 Championship ring. Bit of a read but quite interesting

http://deadspin.com/5775565/the-mess...s-winning-ring

What I found was crazy is how much it sold for. 250k... thats it

That was well-written and interesting.

I'm sort of ashamed I own something from the Halper collection, after reading the following:

In 1999, Halper told The New York Times that he swapped six bottles of J&B Scotch with Lou Gehrig's widow in exchange Lou's "Luckiest Man on Earth" uniform from 1939. Halper said Mrs. Gehrig was happy to get some "hooch."

How sad for Halper to have done this if in fact he actually did. If he did...

1. How could someone do such a thing?

2. Why would you tell The New York Times you did such a thing?
