I like sports memorabilia and used to collect it, but If I had money to burn on stuff like it sure wouldn't be a bat from ty cobb

Right after I hit the $2B powerball last week, I've been trying to find useless things to spend my money on.... Next week, I plan on buying Tom Brady's Sketchers.... the ones he wore when he was headed to the stadium for his last super bowl win.

You CANNOT find authentic Cobb bats w COA

He's my favorite player and investor and sportsman of all time.

In NOLA a shop had a Cobb bat for $140,000 I had an offer contingent upon COA. it couldn't be verified....

This guy got a piece of history if truly authentic.

Cobb the 1st great superstar of sports here, great American and gambler!

Bad reputation given by lazy 1 page report by AL Stump in 60s

Great book titled Cobb, a beautiful tragedy (a line taken from the poet Yeates I assume) . The author actually dug deep w his own research and very fairly dismissed the radical hatred claims

Maybe someone will write a book about you one day saying you were given a bad rap as a big time racist

Some of Minny's shit comes from being the victim of fvcking scumbags and than just blaming the race in general. Everyone can claim to be perfect human beings and never saying an ill word of another person or of any race but that is all bullshit. I have been fortunate to work with multiple races and have not come across one yet that didn't talk shit and joke about another race. Joke or not it is still talking shit. All of a sudden these days, it is taboo to discuss and everyone gets their panties in a bunch. Now this is usually in a healthcare setting and it is usually females.

I would love to act it out one day because the shit is hilarious but someone would take it the wrong way get their feelings hurt. The fact is every race talks shit on others. People are creatures of habit and use to their own culture. They think there way is always the right way and I don't know if they are fearful of the unknown or just confused by it so talk shit to make themselves more comfortable. I don't know but it is funny as fvck and I should right the material for a legit comic to do. Female co-workers are the best.

Not a racist

Fukk hot black chicks all the time.

Until you've had to invest in, employ or rely upon a certain group of people, concentrated on their residential areas,to merely be good citizens who protect their own self interests by respecting the law and holding others accountable, only to have the entire social contract break down due to generation after generation failing their youth & themselves in family life, economic life, political choice, education & occupational opportunities, then you do not have a point of view worthy of consideration.

For 83 years my family was a beer distributor in MPLS, I spent many summers as a kid on the truck watching the change, many years white collar discussing the change w bar and store owners.

There is a congruity between liberal politics, black voting, black culture and white flight.

There is a 100% correlation between white flight and depressed housing & communities.

It's that simple. Deny it all you want, but on May 22 2020 I literally watched my customers, the people who beg me to aid them in their time of need, ransacked my shop and torch the building.

How do you respect people who bite the hand that feeds them or worse, burn down their own community in defense of a strung out drug addict felon?

What am I supposed to respect about that culture or mindset?

Bubbles, if I had really hit the $2B, you'd all be at a party for several days in Vegas with me right now.
Maybe someday. We can always dream.
