I've got these two Griffey autos in black and white - who else has b&w cards of their players?

So you didn't see the black and white background - the first thing you thought was he's an AA and the ball is white? Sounds extremely far fetched but whatever. Supposedly only a small handful, less than 10, were made and I'm curious who else is featured on the black and white background.

Did you not see the I kid part right after that. I really did not tell the back ground was black and white until someone pointed it out.

Wow, some of you need to take yourselves a little less ******* seriously.

Pine Tar is a highly respected member here, and just because he has a slightly different sense of humor,
does not warrant JoshHamilton's ******* comment. He made a joke, albeit a bad one. ;)

Let's all please keep in mind that you are on a internet message board about ******* baseball cards.

I've heard all kinds of things about these print-run wise. I think they are 1 per case. They almost never show up for sale, but for some reason when they do, they don't really go for a premium. I only have 1 in my collection:

I've only seen 1 Smoltz. It got like 20ish. I didn't bid because it didnt say black and white in the title, but when I looked at it after the bidding had closed I noticed.

HIGHLY RESPECTED? By who? And for what, exactly?

Seriously, read through Pine Tar's posts. I don't think I've ever read one that didn't make me wonder whether he's drunk or high. Not to mention his piss poor spelling and sentence structure makes him sound like a pre-teen, even though he's in his 40's

Well. I can only speak for myself, but - in my opinion - you've got very little room to call out someone for their quality of posting.
Pine Tar was obviously joking.

Come on man. Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed or something? It seems in all your posts you are pessimistic either towards someone or towards the topic. Try being a little nicer and see were it gets you . :)

It's funny.

I've never seen one of your posts where I didn't wonder whether you were a dick or just an *******.
