    I promise a good pic day is coming soon...but I have more updates and need to post them not only let you guys know, but to keep track of them myself.

    Cavs vs Wizards

    1/1 Jason Collins- Ticket
    2/2 Jan Vesely - Hoops Cards
    1/1 Emeka Okafor- Hoops Card
    1/1 Trevor Booker- Hoops Card
    1/1 Nene -Hoops Card
    1/1 Kevin Seraphin- Hoops Card
    1/1 Martell Webster- Fleer card

    Missed-Chris Singleton: Literally called out for him as I couldnt find my card when he was signing...when he went down the line I went down after to follow him. Only then did I discover, the dude was so awesome to attempt to come back and sign, but I wasnt there and he just ran past the rest. I feel not only let down, but shocked that somebody actually came back!

    Best of the Night

    1/1 and Picture with John Wall- Signed DIME Magazine.

    He only did one per so I couldnt get my hoops card signed, but this was a magazine that I had been dying for him to sign. Worried as it is a slick magazine cover, but the auto stuck and then he said for me to go down to the end of the line if I wanted a picture, and he took one with me. Mr. Wall, you are awesome. Thank you!

    Awesome night when you also factor in that I won 150 bucks at the casino...yeah great night.

    Pics may be coming either later tonight or tomorrow, but two more updates...unfortunately no more STs, but still some old ones coming back.

    Sent 1-15-13: Received 3-14-13

    1/1 Jimmer Ferdette : Two of Two if you count him writing back on my letter and signing my 12-13 Hoops card. Thanks again for everything Jimmer!

    Sent 8-24-12: Received 3-14-13

    David Robertson- Kind of gave up on this one but nice to get back. I seriously believe that the closing job is either his or Joba's once Mariano retires. Anyhow, amazing pitcher and just happy to get this back!

    Got to meet Joe Thomas today at a local card show signing. He was a really nice guy and just a down to earth kind of person as well. Signed my football, paid 35 for the ticket.

    1/1 Joe Thomas: Browns Football

    Also, paid 10 bucks at a local stand to pick up this steal

    1/1 Jose Reyes signed 8x10


    Pics to come soon!

    Went to the Canton Charge vs Maine Red Claws again tonight. Turned out to be a wise choice. Spent about 20 bucks on food, parking, and the ticket, and walked away with a t-shirt and a 35 dollar gift certificate. I actually participated and won an event on the court during a time out. Won a free throw contest! SICK!

    Anyways, I went with two goals in mind. 1. Get my Josh Selby card autoed for my NBA Hoops 12-13 collection. 2. Get my 8x10 of Fab and Sullinger signed by Melo so I could complete that.

    Mission accomplished, plus an addition auto from Gabe Pruitt.

    1/1 each




    Overall an awesome night.


    On another note, now that I have completed my 8x10. I am looking to clear some shelf space and either FS or FT this nice piece:



    Fab Melo Hardwood piece auto from an earlier Maine Red Claws game. PM me with any offers if interested.

    That's all for now, Spring Break is coming up next week and really looking forward to getting some nice autos then!

    So pics will be up tomorrow, but wanted to get successes up tonight. It's been awhile my viewers and I needed to get back onto the charts.

    Went to the Cavs vs Celtics tonight. It's a shame we blew such a good lead at the end, and lost at the buzzer itself. The night, however, was productive.

    Looking over at the Celtics side, the only guys who really signed last time were Chris Wilcox, Jared Sullinger, and Rajon Rondo. Two of those three were injured. Plus since they are the Celtics, that side was bound to be packed. Plus the fact that even if Pierce or Green did stay back and sign, there was going to be a mosh pit to get their signature which usually leaves them to rush off the floor. Therefore I came to a realization. For my NBA Hoops set, my Cavs cards still needed to be finished, and even though I wasn't there at my normal early time, I could still find an amazing spot and grab a few much needed sigs....sure enough that realization was 100% correct and it paid off.

    1/1 Wayne Ellington- Old program from previous game
    1/1 Shaun Livingston- Ticket Stub
    1/1 Daniel Gibson- NBA Hoops card
    1/1 Tristian Thompson- NBA Hoops Card
    1/1 Alanzo Gee- NBA Hoops Card
    1/1 Dion Waiters- NBA Hoops Card (Rookie)
    1/1 C.J. Miles- NBA Panini Card
    1/1 Mo Speights- NBA Panini Card
    1/1 Chris Quinn (D-League addition)- NBA Panini Card

    Nine! In all honesty I didn't even expect that to happen. Plus I had Omri Casspi blow me off...which is odd because he's not that big of a superstar and he had a bigger ego than Dion Waiters.

    Speaking of Waiters, I wanna give a shout out to this guy. Now a lot of guys sign often but not for everybody, or just sign a half (you know what) signature and rush off. While Waiters does not always sign for the fans, when he does the man is an absolute professional and role model. The aisle ways were filled with packed fans all rushing the court to get Waiters. I was on the other side of this line thinking to myself "Ok most of these are kids, He'll sign for about 2-5 and then rush away to the back" and I am ok with this as I've gotten Waiters before at the Canton Pre-season game. Waiters did something that surprised me tonight though. He signed for everybody, and I mean everybody. He took on this line (of mostly kids) one by one, posing for pictures in the process, and was super nice to the crowd. To top that off he continued to go down the line, after close to like 20-30 graphs mind you, and finished signing for EVERYBODY. That is somewhat unheard of nowadays. Waiters is a good player and could become a great player in the NBA one day. After tonight however, he has earned all my respect and then some.

    That's it for now guys. Off to bed, hope everybody has a great night!

    Omri probably blew you off because someone called him assfingers around you. I don't know where that started but man when I first heard that I literally rolled laughing. You must be thrilled for opening day.

    That is hilarious about Casspi. He's a pretty awful player, but still would like him for my complete roster. And yeah I am sooooo stoked for Opening day vs the Yankees...I will be going the next day, but will definitely be watching the game on t.v. the same day.

    Anyhow, I had two successes/quasi successes today.

    1 was my card back from Adrian Beltre unsigned along with a pre-print...which i guess is a success...

    Then the next one came from Spring Training. Sent 2-14-13, Received 3-30-13.

    2/2 Garrett Jones, OF Pittsburgh Pirates: Kind of cool as I just drafted him on my bench for fantasy baseball. Solid player and pretty nice autographs.

    Two more additions today! Very stoked as a lot of old letters are FINALLY coming back in.

    Sent out 1-15-13, received 4-1-13
    Myers Leonard- PF/C Portland Trail Blazers: Awesome to get this auto back from an awesome rookie. Things do look bright for his future.

    However, while ST may be over, the cards still come in strong.

    Sent 3-2-13, received 4-1-13
    Tony Cingrani- P for the Cincinnati Reds. Currently in the top 100 prospects to watch for 2013. He's in AAA right now, but a very promising talent nonetheless. Cannot wait to see what he's got in store for the world of baseball, but for now we must wait and see!

    Once the week is up, pictures will come. There is a possibility of the Nets vs. Cavs game, but I fear that the Nets will be a madhouse and I already have almost the entire Cavs roster (or at least the ones that matter). That being said, it should be a fun few weeks as tickets have already been purchased for Tribe vs. Philly and Tribe vs NYY later next week. Stoked for baseball to finally be back!

    Another ST success comes in! This one is bittersweet however as he won the game for the Diamondbacks last night, in extras, over my team...

    1/1 Cliff Pennington

    Sent on 2-14-13, received on 4-4-13. It was on a Topps 12', and may have I ever been mixed on an auto return before.

    Thank you Cliff for the autograph, but did you have to beat my Cardinals?
