Live 2013 National Thread

Saw on WGN Noon News that just opened today, coincidently enough, in Rosemont.

Of course, all the scumbag shysters that run Rosemont and all the corrupt politicians that have their hand in Rosemont's pockets just keep piling it on lately.

I ran into phillyfan in the hotel lobby while I was chasing around my son hoping he burns off a bunch of energy. I'll stop by the booth tomorrow!

My posse from The Collector's Group went to Dave & Busters one night in '09. Got lost in the 'ghetto'. Saw a trailer park, a bike leaning up against a cop car, w/the car's door still open, yet nobody was around and a guy juggling invisible objects.

In Cleveland: crazy homeless person
Anywhere else: street mime

Maybe the one next to Wes & Ken is Alex PNW ? Not sure on who that is or the two next to Tim.

Yes, that's Alex..

What ever came from that? Guy sold for $200 and you were firm at $175?

The guy said he wanted $175 in trade and we agreed to that. After me giving him a couple of options for trades and him turning them down. I brought up the idea of him picking what he wanted on eBay equaling $175 he said OK... Then he came back and said he didn't want to do that and that I should be finding something (this is where he start backing out). I said OK then I can get you $175 PP and then he really backed out of the deal there. What an ******* that dude was. Pisses me off just thinking about it.

God... sounds like a headache. The sh!t us player collectors have to deal with from time to time, sorry man. I can't stay deals that go that way... but do love the deals that go SO smoothly from time to time. You're clearly the buyer of that card, so sounds like he'll never sell it for $225...
