Best movie for this subject matter

Hobby Hustle covers many aspects of the hobby. Very well shot and the stories kept me intrigued the whole time. I wonder if the director will make a sequel?? There are so many angles one could take with this hobby. Michael Dault decided to cover three stories with smaller side stories woven throughout. Cliff Panezich and Operation Stolen Base shoes the dark side of the hobby. Karl Kissner and the Black Swamp Find will tug at your heart strings and Luke Kooy and his goal to start his own sports hobby store make this film worthwhile!With how long the film is, I wonder if Dault was thinking about it as a series originally. The part about PSA & JSA and grading in general could be an episode in itself. The power these companies have over the hobby is insane!Well worth your time. And an important documentary that covers things other types of docs like this don't.
