Tristan Shaun Gregson Fired

[KangaRod]

Guys!

How are we not discussing this already? I personally am flabbergasted. I cannot believe it....

If LSV is to be believed (and to be honest, I don't know if I want to), TSG was stealing cards from the company and selling them on eBay. I am unbelievably upset, he was someone I looked up to and had immense respect for.

He got to rub shoulders with people that I would love to have met for but a fleeting moment, on a daily basis. He got paid money to get video taped talking about magic cards, with his friends - who just happened to be some of the best magic players in the world.

Unlimited access to all the cards you could ever need, and that's all gone now; because of his greed.

I want to believe that there has to be another reason, because I can't believe that is the only reason.

Just about to post on this myself.  This is very surprising.

Wow that really sucks. I am sure we will never know the exact reason why he did this. Greed seems logical but it could also be stress. Whatever the actual reasons, he made a mistake, one that will haunt him forever.

Looks like {bonfire of the damned} will burn you even in real life

People do this all the time. They don't realize how good they have it.

But think about have you ever taken a pen home from work or something small? It's the same thing just to an extreme level.

Is that why all the Magic TV episodes vanished?

{Bonfire of the Damned} is ruining lives!!! The card is haunted.

If only I could get $40+ for my pens...

I'm sure there is other stuff you can "borrow" and sell for $40.

[Rass]

Could be all they have records of.

Someone mentioned something in another thread, but they took all the videos with TSG down?

Yup.

[#noided]

Wow, that's kind of hardcore. That's years of magic tv gone

Yep, unfortunately. But at least we get more Martell and Conley. I always felt like TSG kind of had a really casual view on the game. He never had the overall knowledge that TM or LSV brought to the table.

Ok, WTF. They magically reappeared
