Fred Lynn Orioles - Photo Match?

Re: Fred Lynn Orioles - Photo Match?

the photo on the left is a home white jersey and the photo on the right is grey away jersey.

um.... no match.

Okay, this is the third time I've seen this posted in this thread. I must be color blind or something, because the jersey on the right is obviously a home white on my screen. There are some shadows, but it looks white to me.

Re: Fred Lynn Orioles - Photo Match?

I've been trying to photo match my newly accquired Fred Lynn Orioles Gamer from 1985...tough to find good photos of Fred from his Orioles days! I found this one in a Orioles yearbook...is this a photo match???

Also note the arch on the lower part of the nameplate...starts low under the "L" and more material appears under the two "N's"...

the photo on the left is a home white jersey and the photo on the right is grey away jersey.

um.... no match.

Do you know Lou?

Oh, wait, I get it now. You know Lou, and Lou authenticated the jersey for you as a photo match and you are posting it here for validation due to Lou's spotty history.

Now I understand the hostility. Its ok. If you say its a photo match, I believe you, little slugger!

About time you come around gramps....glad I could show you the light...

Re: Fred Lynn Orioles - Photo Match?

Beantown, just thumbing back through all of the posts, I think I counted 13 or 14 different posters that said that they definitely don't see enough definitive characteristics to call it a match. Not one member posted and said that it looked close or it was a match in their opinion. A unanimous opinion would generally lead most people to believe there is no match. I don't believe that leaves any interpretation open to that it still possibly could be a match. Somebody just posted either it is or it isn't. If your opinions were split 50/50, then that would be a different argument.

Many posters have offered detailed opinions as to why they don't think there is a match, but you don't offer any response as to, "I see what you mean". Just not following your logic as to why you think it still could be a match.

I offered my opinion on what characteristics I thought looked good, which some agreed....I addressed most if not all opinions on why individuals didn't think it was a photo match...

um, removed my NY avatar?

<<<<<<<<<<< (pssst, its still there, it never left)


ok, so I want to help you. I want you to feel better. I think I see a photo match...threads, creases, yes, yes, I see it all so clearly now. You have a 100% photo match. No doubt about it.

How's that?

Re: Fred Lynn Orioles - Photo Match?

There is a gray area...the photo doesn't answer the question either way.....

Whatever.....I'm not getting into an argument with you over the semantics of a photomatch. It might be the same jersey, it might not be. Good luck!

If you want' to offer the bait, I'll take it everytime...you don't think I see what you're trying to do? Shouldn't have removed your "NY" avatar...that spoke volumes about you....

Again, another personal attack. Do you enjoy belittling others who offer the help that you asked for? Its not a very nice way to go about things.

Unfortunately, it does. There is no gray area. Either it is, or it isn't.

Re: Fred Lynn Orioles - Photo Match?

Did I say there was a photomatch? NO!!! I said if I can't prove that it is one, than you can't prove that it isn't one....why can't you get that?

You just don't get it....but as an ignorant as you are, I shouldn't be suprised...

Re: Fred Lynn Orioles - Photo Match?

Again, another personal attack. Why can't you just accept the fact that we've offered the opinion you asked for and you are just unwilling to accept that opinion?

Re: Fred Lynn Orioles - Photo Match?

Keep avoiding issue...that seems to be what you do best....you're laughable and should be banned from posting as you offer NOTHING!
