I’m sorry, you are not allowed to tell another BO member that a player will be a hall of famer in the future, until that player has already had confirmation of being elected into the hall of fame.

You don’t want to potentially harm somebody with allegations of hall of fame credentials.

That’s why you shouldn’t flaunt wealth or power if you don’t want to get into trouble.

Even if the trouble is alleged.

There are people who Wander doesn’t know who are jealous of his $ and wouldn’t mind having it. Did Wander do that?

SupermanBrandon · 08-19-2023, 10:26 AM

Crazy after all of these decades of celebrity athletes worth millions...that this is the first / one of the only times this allegation has happened to a young player?

So people cant project a bad future...but they can project a good one?

Those people who are jealous aren’t in position to take Wander down. However, if you piss off your confidants - you are in trouble.

Just look at Ja and Zion.

So today's topic is about defamation of character as it applies to online forums?

That’s what I’ve been told.

Every player is a hall of famer until proven otherwise, allegedly.

The forum rules have links for the Wikipedia definitions of trolling and flaming, so I guess those are what is used

That’s exactly the way I see it, also

I’ll await my software update to know what to think.

Does the definition mention anything specific regarding comments made about cards of baseball players?

Yesterday was neck tats & their potential connections to convicts...while Thursday was about politics. Each day brings something completely new.

lol. You are trying to make a serious post as if this is regarding World War 3 on a political website.

There are pretty solid evidence to suggest Wander is wrong here and guilty. We don't know everything, but right now it's not looking good for him.

What else is there to discuss about this? Wander and others might have gotten caught being with underage girls. It's being investigated not only by MLB, but by the Dominican Republic.

This message board isn't to be taken serious. Heck we have a thread dedicated to instagram/etc models of the sorts in the off-topic section.

hermanotarjeta · 08-19-2023, 11:07 AM

What exactly is a “good” person supposed to do?

Hold their Wander cards while watching their values plummet thousands of dollars a day, patiently waiting for the facts to come out?

Or, ironically, are the trolls who are advising you to sell actually intending “good” for their fellow BO member investors to help them lose less money?

I’m not a Troll ( as far as I know! ) and can tell you all this is 100% the reason I’m active in this Thread - is to potentially help my fellow Boardies

Obviously not.

What a bizarre turn this thread has taken. The contrarian board lawyer now writes that speculation is not permitted (on a message board) because it isn't fair.

As the vast majority of BB threads are, one way or the other, related to speculation, there wouldn't be much left to cover where his rules to be followed.

How are OJ Simpson cards holding up?

Man, you really knocked that strawman down, good job!

Just knocking down what he put up, but, thank you.

hermanotarjeta · 08-19-2023, 11:35 AM

Man, a psa 9 2019 bowman chrome refractor auto just sold on auction for $210.

Wasn’t this a $2000 card raw during the pandemic pump?

We’re approaching 90% drops folks, don’t know what you are waiting for.

How dare you say that! This is the most serious place on the interwebs! Anything you type can and will be held against you in a court of law!

That wonderful thread that objectively describes a player’s likelihood of being enshrined is just perfect.

Edit: although that thread should be updated to include likelihood of injury, death, PED use and being kicked out of baseball.

Investors and flippers in the hobby are completely disposable to begin with, aren’t they?
