Like many BO members, I have smaller collections of Tatis and Wander that are now pushed three deep in my closet. Those experiences led me back to Ohtani since "character" has become such a necessary quality. Maybe it's because I understand the culture, but I have near-absolute confidence in his discipline to not take shortcuts. And if he does, that comes down to my miscalculation in judgement and I am fine going down with the ship. I have no clue how many Sho cards I own and it's irrelevant as long as they bring me joy.

I also appreciate the humility and consistency in this player thread. I'm sure we're surrounded by quite a few big guns like TBP and Khal but we generally opt for inclusion over condescension, which is a rarity at BO .
