    You are trying to point out a grammar mistake that doesn't exist. You called his article poorly written. A very IRONIC epic fail to say the least.

    First I'm not writing for a site. My error has nothing to do with the article.

    Secondly I enjoyed the article it was informative.

    Third again I was just asking if anyone can write for the site

    fourth if you don't think that was poorly written you need to go back to your fourth grade teacher and punch her for not teaching you grammar and writing skills.

    Says the person who made a post with poor grammar and writing skills...talking about someone else poor grammar and writing skills... Makes you look foolish..I had no problems with the article and it made perfect sense to me..So maybe the issue was with your reading NOT the article..RITM congrats on the article and your opportunity to show your vast knowledge and experience on the subject

    and BTW- I am a horrible writer who ALWAYS uses poor grammar and punctuation. and I am completely comfortable with that..

    If you are such an expert, what are your qualifications? I don't think being a keyboard warrior counts though. Why don't you scan in one of your crayon written book reports and we can all judge your work? That sounds fair to me.

    Actually I am quite educated and successful..But my point is I really don't take the time, Nor do I take myself THAT seriously that I care enough to ensure my punctuation and grammar are correct on a SPORTS CARD message board!!!!

    But my point still remains the same..don't make a fool of yourself by posting about another members efforts when you yourself did what you were claiming he did..Not just ironic but hypocritical..If you didn't like it simply move on..he wasn't looking for a critic he was simply sharing his work..

    You know, I'm sorry for being a jerk. It had good info. I shouldn't have wrote that.

    Greetings again everyone. The good news is that another website has expressed an interest in a similar article. The current article is being tweaked to make it original for the new host. Obviously the key information (sales data, card bios) will remain the same, but there will be new quotes.

    You know, I'm sorry for being a jerk. It had good info. I shouldn't have wrote that.

    I appreciate comments and feedback. I am a collector and love engaging with other collectors throughout the world. Discussion is a great thing. My only request would be to point out specific areas of an article that might need tweaking rather than painting with such a broad stroke. As mentioned above, I am working on a Ripken article for another site and may have another article in the works for another group. I want to present quality information in a way that is easy to understand.
