That's another flat out awesome day...Howard ball looks great. I really like the Big Baby card, and the JRich Fleer looks nice as well.

Detroit Tigers' great Willie Horton made an appearance at the Meijer store out in Allen Park, MI as part of the "Play Ball" event taking place there. Got Willie to sign my ROMLB along with "68 W. S. C." inscription on it. Also got him on a promo photo he was handing out as well.

After work today, headed to the hotel to catch the Milwaukee Bucks upon arrival. Of course, they have already checked in an hour before I got there, so decided to wait around to see if I could get anybody going out or coming back to the hotel. Only got 2 players coming back into the hotel: guard Beno Udrih and guard Brandon Jennings (was a little hesitant about signing, but I told him I only had 1 item to sign, so he did it). Missed out on head coach Scott Skiles, as he took walked the other way from the exit. Didn't need Larry Sanders, Jon Brockman, assistant coach Joe Wolf, Carlos Delfino, Jon Leuer, and Tobias Harris. Everybody else, I didn't see come out.

Event host Braylon Edwards - 1/1 mini-helmet with the inscription of "Go Blue" on it
Didn't need the rest of the participants like former NBA player Derrick Coleman, boxer Cornelius Bundrage, U of M women's basketball guard Courtney Boylan, former NFL player Pierre Brown, NFL free agent Marlin Jackson, and former WNBA player Stacey Lovelace-Tolbert. Only got a "high-five" from U of M's quarterback Denard Robinson, who stiffed everybody on signing. Ndamukong Suh's sister was in attendance, but no sign of the big man himself.

Went to graph the Chicago Bulls upon arrival to the hotel today. Of course, I made it there 45 minutes after they checked in already. Got the following to sign for me as they came out:

shooting guard/small forward Kyle Korver - 1/1 trading card
center Joakim Noah - 2/2 trading cards
radio color commentator Bill Wennington - 1/1 trading card

Only missed out on assistant coach Rick Brunson, who went the other way upon exiting the hotel, and C.J. Watson, who ignored as he hopped into a cab. Didn't need Omer Asik, Brian Scalabrine, Mike James, and John Lucas III. Boozer (who I heard signed upon arrival), Deng, Rose, Brewer, Butler, and Gibson didn't go out.

Thanks. Joakim, Rip, and "The White Mamba" Brian Scalabrine did photos with. I should have gotten photos with Joakim and Rip, but didn't. I heard D-Rose didn't sign at all upon arrival.

Went back to the hotel to graph the Chicago Bulls today as they boarded the bus to the game against the Pistons. Surprisingly, only 13 other graphers there with none of the regular dealers in sight, maybe because it rained, but the skies did clear up once the first bus pulled around. Got the following to sign for me as the boarded the bus:
assistant coach Rick Brunson - 1/1 trading card
point guard Mike James - 1/1 trading card
shooting guard/small forward Kyle Korver - 1/1 trading card
center Joakim Noah - 1/1 trading card
point guard Derrick Rose - 1/1 8 x 10 photo (he ran with one of the graphing kid's black Sharpie; would have been better signed with my silver Elementz, but can't complain too much getting Rose to sign)
assistant coach Adrian Griffin - 1/1 trading card
director of player development Randy Brown - 2/2 trading cards
tv color analyst Stacey King - 1/1 trading card
radio color commentator Bill Wennington - 1/1 trading card
power forward Taj Gibson - 1/1 trading card
shooting guard/small forward Richard Hamilton - 1/1 Pistons giveaway hat from last season (already signed by Terrico White, Jonas Jerebko, and Jason Maxiell)
shooting guard/small forward Ronnie Brewer - 1/1 trading card
Missed out on the following:
assistant coach Ed Pinckney - 0/1 (ignored)
power forward Carlos Boozer - 0/2 (ignored; surprised, since he's usually cool about signing)
guard C.J. Watson - 0/1 (ignored)
small forward Luol Deng - 0/1 (was the last player to board the first bus, so the Bulls' security personnel rushed him on the bus)
Omer Asik also signed, but I didn't need him. Jimmy Butler, head coach Tom Thibodeau, and John Lucas III ignored.
