6 charged with fraud

[Mattfedo01]

I have noticed on JO's website that Michael Vick is no longer on the homepage when you first enter the website....and also mikevick.com used to have a link that takes you right to josports website to purchase his items, and that link has been pulled...do you think vick is no longer with them??? They still do have his items but you have to search for them.

Let's be very clear Jamie. I am not calling most of the people on the forum trolls. I am calling YOU a troll.


Sincerely,

ChrisCavalier, has someone cyber-hacked your password and hijacked your handle because this is startling to read if you actually wrote this.

Doesn't this violate some of your own Forum rules?

- This entire thread has gotten really sad...

That sums it up in so many ways.

For the first time, I am at a loss for words. A thread about 6 people the FBI investigated for fraud contains more damaging information about unaffiliated collectors than the accused! How can it be that JO will come out of this with less need for damage control than half a dozen of the members of this site?

I have plenty of opinions about this case, those who defend and those who accuse and the blatant disregard and double standards illustrated in this thread but I'm not screaming at the ocean. I refuse to indulge in the deflective tactics and crass commentary. I will say however that Jamie isn't wrong about some of the inflammatory things he wrote and this thread can only continue to negatively affect this hobby.

In my humble opinion, isn't it time to shut this down? Has anyone grown as a collector, learned something positive or enhanced the hobby for the last 50 pages? Leaving it open in the hopes JO will comment in posts we all know are never coming has only allowed further scars to develop, feelings to be hurt and collectors to lose trust and faith in each other and this site.

An unfortunate situation is becoming worse with the in-fighting. Lets all try to keep our cool.

I posted this about 15 pages ago and still say there's about 40/46 pages of useless arguments/personal attacks/garbage that isn't doing a thing for this thread.
I respectively agree, this forum is for the open opinions/comments of anyone, but I think it's WELL known the subject of this thread and the continuing bantering back/forth is literally just taking up space.

Until there is more actual more news/facts presented to the public, I personally just to see the continuation of this thread??? There's been NO new updates since the OP post day? LOL...

Well said! It's honest timely to close this thread!
