many of the guys sell the shite, because they would rather it go to some one who would cherish it, than to their kids who could give a rats arse.
Bob Gibson sold a bunch of shite, he said, he's getting up there, and he would rather some one who will want his goods to get them, rather than family going through it like a dead carcass on a side road. Let them fight over the cash it brings in later down the road, while some one enjoys those items.
Lou Brock has been doing the same, selling off shite, putting the money away for family. Lou doesn't need the cash, and cash is easier to split up and his items go to people who want them and cherish them.
There is a company that does this for aging athletes, so their items go to good homes and each get cash. More athletes are selling stuff, they kept a ton of shite back in the days. Even with all the stuff Lou sold, he still had a room with 5-7K things still in it. Baskets full of stuff.
