Stop Judging Other Collectors! + Free Speech or Bullying? + Our Most Wanted Cards!
Sports Cards LiveShow Notes
When is it appropriate to comment on someone else's collecting decisions? And where do we draw the line between expressing an opinion, constructive criticism, and simply being a jerk?
Chris McGill (HOJ) kicks off the final segment of Sports Cards Live with a question that sparks a lively discussion with Jeremy Lee, David Chase, Joe Poirot, and Joshua Adams about hobby etiquette, unsolicited opinions, trolling, and the motivations behind online criticism.
The conversation also touches on the criticism directed at sponsored hobby content before the guys lighten things up by sharing some of the cards they're hoping to add to their collections.
Plus, Jeremy shares some upcoming travel plans, with appearances at Front Row Card Shows in Pasadena and Phoenix.
A fitting conclusion to another great night of Sports Cards Live!
