We (everyone) are what makes these boards the greatest place to discuss sports cards on earth!

Appreciate you, hermano. Good insight on the hobby and when we disagree, it's in a respectful way. Can't always say that these days.

Also ninjacookies. Guy is hilarious. 90s basketball references are terrific.

In general, thankful for most everyone here. The insight on various aspects of the hobby has been terrific and taught me a lot.

Merry Christmas!

You are the man!

As for ninja, it’s good to know that at least half the fine folks here are able to understand what he’s posting. On that rare occasion, you actually don’t need google translate to figure out what he’s saying, lol.

Taking down one LeBron homer after another, brother.

Happy holidays!

Messier for his National recaps every night of the show and his wrap up when they end! very well written and concise with no bias. Thank you very much!

Two guys in particular have really influenced me on this board -

1) chris_ac inspired me in terms of having an awesome, focused PC. Sometimes I've strayed in the last five years, but his example has always encouraged me to focus on the unique and the high quality.

2) Silent George - who hasn't been around much this year, he's been busy with some project it seems - and the HOF Tracker. I love incessant baseball HOF debates, and he gave an example I've attempted (and failed) to emulate.

This forum has been slowly dying -- Silent George hasn't posted for a long time. There is a lot less discussion going on. Gambling and group breaking has taken over the hobby -- there used to be plenty of personal show-off posts, if only to pump for resale.

This place is becoming depressing.

I think you misunderstood the assignment for this thread…

And yet, here you are.

I wasn't one of the suckers that fell for having children.

Great thread...

Kudos to Jon AKA jlzinck

He's a class act with quite the story to tell while spreading joy across the boards

Thanks for all you do, Jon

Same here. I remember him being a high volume poster here, just looked at his profile and see next month will be 10 years since his last activity before being banned.

Two users who haven’t been named but should be on this thread:

Eastbayak is a positive, informative voice.

Premium1981 has a wealth of knowledge and shoots everyone straight.

TBP for his eternal optimism and humor.
rwperu for his Bowman tracker and transparent yearly strategies/check-ins/wrapups
hermano for scaring me away from those Gilded Storm inserts in perpetuity
BlowoutBuzz for the reasons already articulated. I imagine that account's owner as Max Headroom, more or less. Yep, I'm an old...
Seanrs - for the unintentional humor on the invest/collect angle, particularly with Ohtani.
