Another reason to hate Rob Schneider & the Media

Rob Schneider is, along with his pal Adam Sandler, known to be one of the world's least funny comedians.

They emerged from "Saturday Night Live" as "stars" after playing obnoxious child-men. Schneider's "big" character was the office creep running the xerox machine. His catch-phrase? "Makin' copies!" Ho ho.

Schneider went on to irritating movies like "Deuce Bigelow" (playing a shrimpy, ugly gigolo, ha ha) and co-starring roles with Sandler. These films have made MILLIONS for these idiots, despite critics hating 'em.

So, what does Rob Schneider do with his money? What you'd expect from a child-man. He wastes a fortune on baseball cards. His house was burglarized and the headline was about his fucking cards. Or, ONE card in particular

The reason to hate the media?

The breathless report about this asshole isn't "news," and the card isn't RARE or PRICELESS. An article quoting the card as impossible to fence because it's SO rare:

That Willie Mays card that is SO rare it "can't be fenced?"

First off, collectors routinely buy shit that they can't even show off to anyone. They buy it to hoard it, and keep it from anyone else. Even the "Mona Lisa" could be fenced.

Secondly, why is this $175,000 card selling on eBay for a fraction of that inflated price?

You might say, "Oh, Rob's card was in MINT condition." But so are the ones on eBay. Or pretty close.

Card dealers, like comic book idiots and other "collectible" idiots, can get awfully ridiculous about how valuable a card might be, and even declare a misprint valuable, or one that's "off center" etc. All it does is put Rob Schneider into the world of juvenile, money-wasting morons.

You'd think this weasel might, MIGHT have some pride in having a scholarship named after him, a building named after him, or that he could sponsor a Little League team or something. Even a thousand dollars is major money to an inner city neighborhood team that could use uniforms and equipment. A 1951 Bowman? This asshole wasn't even born back then, was he? He sure as hell wasn't watching Willie Mays play, and even if he was, so what? It's a picture on a card. What kind of homo-erotic thrill is worth thousands upon thousands of dollars?

The answer is he owns this garbage "because he can." Because he can't think of anything better to spend his money on. He's one of the creeps that make bootleggers feel better about themselves: "Hey, why not download the latest Rob Schneider comedy? He doesn't need the money!"

When I was a kid, I collected baseball cards. I still have a few. But even if I was a millionaire, I wouldn't buy back all the ones I had at inflated prices. It would be embarrassing. I'm also old enough and mature enough not to need "STUFF." I wouldn't want some pock-marked, smelly "dealer" chuckling over having taken $50 or $500 or more off me for a piece of cardboard in a plastic sleeve.

The funniest thing about Rob Schneider is how he wastes his money. He's a chump. A stooge. A mark.

And so it goes, with the media making ridiculous claims to make a stupid story more "newsworthy." Oh, mediocre B-list actor has a burglary...HA...a baseball card was stolen. Let's say it's PRICELESS. Now we have something!
