Soooooooooooooooo much effort on the part of Chafie Fields to sign. It looks like Anthony just scribbled the same thing twice. Take a good look at Derrick's manly auto! Aye Aye Aye!
This is a blog about the annoyances of life and the little things that make us go, "STOP IT". Sports cards are one of my plentiful hobby addictions and it will also be one of the many items that are discussed on this blog. Feel free to leave your opinion and thoughts.

Chicken Scratch of the Day!
I'm doing a little new feature called, "Chicken Scratch of the Day". It will consist of an authentic autograph of an athlete's and you job is to figure out if that's his name signed on the card as they have so patiently and passionately scribbled on.
Our first candidates: Chris Johnson and Gartrell Johnson. Who copied who's auto style?

Who signed that card?
Nothing like opening a pack of UD SPX or EXQUISITE or Topps Chrome and pulling out an autograph of a player where the signature consists of this; _)(__))__ ??? What the heck is that garbage? It seems that many of the autographs being pulled are absolutely horrible. In my opinion the athletes should not be paid until they sign decently at least on the cards/stickers. Let's take a look at some good autos and some not so good autos.

Donald Fehr - Now that you have my money.....LEAVE!
Donald Fehr worked as the director of the MLB Players Association for 26 years and is finally retiring. He's also well known for this: Players' strikes, performance-enhancing drug use and congressional hearings. He was a greedy man. It took the US government stepping in to knock him off his "no big tests needed" campaign. He looked like a winged duck in front of congress while making his presentations. You screwed us fans out of the 1994 World Series. You made the million dollar cry babies. Hope you rot! NEXT TO GO....BUD SELIG and SCOTT BORAS! Oh yeah, Stephen Strasburg and Bryce Harper are clients of Mr. Borass.... I wonder if these names sound familiar...Ben McDonald, Todd Van Poppel, Brien Taylor, and Mark Prior. Ha ha Good times.

Ebay Feebay Fleabay either way we get your money!
Alrighty .... we have up to bat our first possible Ebay scammer of the day:

Let's see.....hmmm......his rookie year but yet he was in the Pro Bowl??? There have been so many fake patch cards up on Ebay that it's just completely disgusting. Another thing that is getting out of hand is the shipping charges. I only ever charged $1.65 for shipping which gave you a sealed top loader and shipped out in a bubble mailer and sent first class. Never had a problem and I never had a complaint and I had been doing business on Ebay since Feb 10, 1999 (http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=hertz27&ftab=AllFeedback&sspagename=STRK:ME:UFS). It amazes me that when you buy a $1.00 card and they charge you $4.00 for shipping and then when you finally get your card in the mail and you open the envelope and it falls out of a penny sleeve...yeah...automatic negative will be given in my opinion.
Oh by the way, I quit doing business on Ebay at the beginning of February this year because of the ridiculous fee's that have been brought on by Ebay and Paypal. Plus the fact they no longer really support the sellers and the feedback system stinks. So I closed out my account and I have yet to pay my Ebay fee's. I had sold a card to someone who claimed they never received it and then they turn around and tried to sell it on Ebay 3 weeks later. Do you think Ebay cared? Heck no. They did absolutely nothing even after presenting them with the proof from the auction and pics of the card (serially numbered- matched my auction and his). It took me getting the police involved and threatening to have the guy arrested for fraud (he did give me the money for the card finally thanks to the Sheriff's department). Here's a copy of it: Goes from newest to oldest.

First never defraud someone who does investigations. Bad move on your part. You can play coy on the phone all you want. You know very well which card we are discussing Maunel. Secondly I will give you notice that everything has been transpired between us including the emails have been faxed to the Tulare Sheriff's office and at the fax number they gave me 559-591-5875. 15 pages worth. feel free to call and confirm it if you like. I also turned all of the information into paypal as well. I am more than willing to work with you and give you a chance to either send my card back to me in the condition as described and as seen in the auction or you can pay me the money owed as what is was in the auction. Your other choice is facing legal action and I am prepared to do so. If you send me the card or pay what is owed I will not press charges. I give you my word on that Manuel. People make mistakes and can be forgiven for them. I will tell you I do not harbor any anger towards you. I just want to know why you lied. I will call the Sheriff's Dept and tell them to drop it if you work with on this. You already gave me all the proof I needed to go forth with everything. The choice is up to you.

Day one
This will be my first try at this "blogging" thing. Basically my mind will be spoken but without the vulgarity that some people use. The subjects will cover Ebay to Sports Cards companies to just plain foolish thoughts and ideas of everyday life to Religion to various company annoyances. I leave the sports cards digesting to the pro's like Mario at "Wax Heaven" and Gellman at "http://www.sportscardsuncensored.com/". Comments left here by fellow bloggers will be answered and feel free to speak your mind as it's you given right.
