oilcheck my rear end posted:Here's a stupid effort post because I feel like it. I only quoted a bit of your post that seemed to indicate that having the book signed in itself lowered its value. That still doesn't really sound right, but now I'm not sure that's what you were saying.

Chris de Sperg posted:You're taking something that there's relatively few of (unsigned first edition), and make it into something there's relatively many of (signed first edition), so, excluding any complications of demand, you've turned a more valuable commodity into a less valuable one. I don't accept that there is any more demand for used, unsigned books than there is for used, signed books.

Byolante posted:Why would someone, other than blue footed boobie, want a book saying 'thanks for showing up to this book signing blue footed boobie, all the best [poo poo footballer]' I don't think the buyer of lovely used sports biographies is that discerning, and in any event a lot of signed copies are just signatures, too.

The Clit Avoider posted:Most people who collect 1st ed. books are collecting antiquated volumes, and want something as close to mint condition as possible. When a signature is not a rarity, it is considered near enough vandalism. What's hard about this to understand? This all sounds like a wildly unrealistic scenario and I suspect you're all just making this up.

Jose posted:Ozil is out injured for 3 months lol Amazing. My favorite part is that the Arsenal physios didn't pick it up at all. The Germans team had to do it. Pretty sure Arsenal just hired a vet.

Apparently the Arsenal medics told the national team it wasn't a serious injury lol. This is the club's all time record signing.

African AIDS cum posted:Explain how doctors could prevent this, without giving them banned substances Obv the doctors probably couldn't have prevented this, but over the years, Rosicky, Vermalean, and Wilshere have all picked up long term injuries which have either been bizarre mysteries for long periods, or have been mis-diagnosed repeatedly. That doesn't really seem to happen with other teams. And the fact that Arsenal released Ozil to Germany without giving him an MRI themselves and just assuming that a knee ligament tear "wasn't serious" is a bit shocking. Meanwhile, our players are consistently out longer than they're originally projected to be. Not exactly reassuring stuff. blue footed boobie fucked around with this message at 19:22 on Oct 8, 2014 |

Shoren posted:He's had that injury all season. I'm betting it's "flared up" at the moment so he can rest during the international break. Doubt it. Arsenal released him to the French team, and yet again, it was the national team who had to tell the Arsenal medical staff that their player was actually injured.

Bogan Krkic posted:He's saying it's more about 'brand power' and 'selling potential' than actually being a successful football club. I don't agree, but United do seem to care a lot more about those things than other clubs, at least at face value Modern football is about "brand power" and "selling potential" and lol if anyone cares about any table other than the Deloitte Money League Table.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...s_campaign=1490 Ozil heard a crack in his knee right before half time in the Chelsea game, and was told to play on. Arsenal physios apparently never followed up. Pretty shocking stuff, in this boobie's opinion.

euroboy posted:William Gallas has retired from football. Post your favorite Gallas moment itt. That awful on the pitch pep talk he did with the camera circling him to show all the disinterested Arsenal players listening to him. That time Adebayor told Bendtner he was poo poo and then Gallas spat on Bendtner. That time Arsenal were getting destroyed by United and Nani did a seal dribble and then Gallas put in a ridiculous reducer tackle on him.

'Arry posted:He [Taarabt] is not injured. He’s not fit. He’s not fit to play football unfortunately. He played in a reserve game the other day and I could have run about more than he did. I can’t pick him. I pick people who want to try, who deserve to be at a good football club like QPR, who come in every day and want to work, train and show a good attitude. When he starts doing that, if he ever can do it, maybe he’ll get a game. I love Taraabt

Koscielny is now out indefinitely. I assume we'll see him in a couple years like what happened with Vermalean, Wilshere, and Rosicky.

I actually just remembered that Vermalean and Rosicky actually disappeared for over a year with this exact same injury (Achilles tendinitis). So uh yeah, Wenger out.
