I probably will only post here in these NC threads from now on, but here was a funny outside post today.
"A major blow to the collecting community.
Without Beckett Grading, how would we know if a card is centered or not?
Without Beckett Magazine, how would we know what a card is worth?
Without Beckett.com, how would we know if our computers can load pages?
Without Beckett staff, how would we know what amount of man boobage is acceptable?" :lol:
I wouldn't be surprised if Beckett has under 5 years left. RIP bye bye.
to the absolute ridiculous **** in this thread, it never disappoints.
Love that episode, a flat out amazing show. The actual ridiculousness that I was thinking about was the best boobs contest. But beyond that the free thought that occurs here is so vastly superior to any other site I've been apart of that to me that's what makes this place great, sometimes it's hobby relevant, sometimes it's favorite childhood/current day cartoons and that's why I check so often because you never know what's happening. Nearly every other site is predictable moment to moment.
That is definitely some funny stuff. Beckett gets a hard knock at times and rightfully so. They served a fairly important spot in this hobby for awhile but like many organizations they feel more important than they are and that's when things get away from them. I like a lot of things Beckett has done and still does but I much prefer a site like this that doesn't take itself too seriously but still serves an important purpose for this hobby and the people who use this site.
No matter what happens with Beckett some of my favorite hobby memories will be me as a kid pouring over that magazine for the collector spotlight or the c-note wish list or to see if my Bonds Fleer rookie went up in value...so many fun memories around that magazine, and even the site in the early days or internet.
I'm very thankful that I found FCB though, without a doubt my most visited website these days, from lonesomes coffee shop MT girls to the absolute ridiculous **** in this thread, it never disappoints.
