Good luck. It would be awesome to see someone in this thread pull off the W for the card. It is still sitting at a very reasonable price with a few days left.

Haha!

You got a good deal for sure. I subbed four of the first six PSA 10's for this card, from what I remember. I sold one waaaay too early and then the second I sold to you way too early. Then, I sold one at pretty much near peak. The one ending this weekend will certainly fall somewhere between your purchase and my last sale. The closer to my last sale for me the better, but I know the market has been hard since those times, so I am realistic.

Thank you! That is a sweet card too. If you want a sure upgrade, there is going to be Fast Break Blue /50 PSA 10 Luka coming to the Goldin auction starting Jan 17. Don't ask how I know.

I went to the thread that Khal mentioned. Read the last 3 pages of it and I'm pretty sure post #175 is what did it. I obviously could be wrong but it did got testy in that thread for sure.

I always liked the banter with OP.

Ooo I'll have to watch that. Not buying anything right now but nice to see how much it'll go for.

Seemed like an okay post to me.

I mean, Blowout banned someone for making a racist Native American comment, and brought him back a few days later. So Roger should get to come back.

good riddance... dude was on my ignore and it was annoying considering he posts so much .

and for the record, being annoying or making dumb posts here and there doesn't get you on my ignore - - but combine that with being a racist, homophobe, etc and that does get you there.

It was pretty objectively not an OK post. The pedo comment put it over the top. I haven't been following the thread though to know the whole story.

Wow. Strong accusations buddy. Might want to back these up with some proof.

One of the morons chasing Rittenhouse was a pedophile. Yeah, it was a jab. But ban worthy? Jeez. Seems harsh.

I think his banning is proof of concept [ie - he has said likely worse stuff before] - I didn't even see the more recent post in the Lebron thread until now - and for the record Khal, you've been teetering on the edge - but you generally bring more worthwhile than bad posts.

I also don't see what politics have to do with a basketball hobby forum - there are an infinite number of spaces to discuss that elsewhere online.

LeBron’s politics and social agenda are perfectly relevant for discussion when debating his hobby future. If BO doesn’t want those posts, the threads should just get locked from the start.

It was also edited. So it was probably worse before.

Khal you've been teetering on the edge big time.

Thank you daeve for having so much mercy and restraint on Khal.

again, there's so much space out there for all y'all to freely engage in as much bigotry as you want - clearly it's not as welcome here as you think - when people are questioning why/how OP got banned and can't figure it out - probably means you should take a good hard look in the mirror.

It's actually shocking more of you haven't been banned. And often it's the users with the largest post counts. Still have receipts of pedophilia jokes directed at me during the "Ben Simmons is a HOFer" days that went unpunished. Probably because I don't report comments on here, I just ignore the guilty and move on.

Don't worry though, this is my last nba season as a regular poster here, as I've stated previously.

Why were they making pedophile jokes towards you daeve?

how should I know - it seemed like a normal/fine thing to say when losing an argument? [in their minds]

Does it seem like I care?

I’ll keep posting as I do. If the mods want to suspend or ban me, so be it. Report away if you think I’m such a problem.

LeBron's inability to read beyond the first couple pages of a book speak highly of his opinions on things. He can hoop though.

Note to self: avoid insinuating out of the blue some connection between another poster and kiddie-diddling

There are plenty of stupid people with a big net worth.

Do you go turn on Keeping up with the Kardashians to see what they have to say about stuff?

Obviously if you can scheme a plot to make a billion dollars

They are a bit smarter than you care to give them credit for

My point was that just having money doesn't mean you are right about everything and people should just listen to you...

You can be successful and be dumb at the same time.

Nobody is right on everything ..not a single person on earth

Even though they like the to believe they are , nobody on this thread is always right

The difference is they are filthy rich … I’d rather be that

I agree with Moneychrome for once lol.

And in LeBron's case - it wasn't inherited. It was earned through talent, hard work, and yes - savvy business decisions.

But this a thread about Luka. Hopefully he gets to a point of popularity where any sort of political expression sends a group into a frenzy lol. Of course with Luka it may be about Slovenia so most of us in the US will have to buy some Slovenian history books to really choose a side.
