what teams seem to be the best that sign

[gladdyontherise]

Here's what I got from doing the Royals yesterday:

At the game:
Jeremy Jeffress


(for my set)


At the hotel:
Luke Hochevar


Ned Yost (he REALLY didn't want to sign)


Jeff Francoeur




Bruce Chen



Then for my set
Billy Butler


Assuming the Tigers make the postseason, either New York or Texas will probably be headed to Detroit next.

Did the A's the past two days, here's what I got

Yesterday:

Bob Melvin


Jonny Gomes


Tommy Milone


Here is who I got today:
Seth Smith


Brandon Inge
Although I strongly dislike him as a player, I can't deny he's a really nice guy to the fans.







Then a surprise that I was unaware was in town

Joe Torre


A fun story was that Delmon Young is staying at the hotel the A's were at, and Young is well...a tool. He says whenever he's at the hotel that he'll sign at the stadium (which he of course never does), so today there are only 4 of us left and when we ask him, he of course says at the stadium, so when we mention he said that yesterday, he says "I say a lot of things", and then just ignores at that point. Can't wait till he's gone from Detroit after the season.

If the Tigers advance to the ALCS, I'll be doing either the Orioles or Yankees next.

Did the Bobcats yesterday, here's what I got:

DeSagana Diop


DaJuan Summers





Tyrus Thomas


Bismack Biyombo


Michael Kidd-Gilchrist


Next team I'll be doing is the Hawks for Basketball (I believe), and either the Giants or Cardinals for Baseball.

Nice job on the Bobcats! Just curious, but are you rubbing down your Topps cards and some of the more glossy ones?

Nope, I use the staedtler's on the glossy stuff, they aren't working as well lately though, so I'm starting to think they might be no good anymore.

[Deadshot]

I didn't know if it was that or that you prefer more of a fine point (nothing wrong with that). I used to rub down my cards so hard that it left marks but now I'm just giving them a quick, light treatment with a white eraser and getting good results.

[gladdyontherise]

Yea, I probably just need to change and use a new sharpie, or buy the thicker point ones. Generally, it doesn't bother me though on the size of the tip.
