Appreciate the love guys. I'm glad my posts motivate anyone. We all need that little extra push now and again from seeing something cool or unique. I'm at the point now where I'm getting more obscure and just having fun with project ideas or just trying to do my own research. It really keeps things interesting.
Anyway, here are my latest returns, including what may be the single most insane return I've ever gotten:
Mark Jankowski 1/1 c/o Stockton Heat (now with the Flames) in 355 days
Ryan Potter 1/1 c/o agency in 231 days
Grant Kirkhope 1/1 c/o home in 222 days
Julian Rebolledo 1/1 c/o Hyperbolic Audio in 123 days
Wade Phillips 1/1 c/o Los Angeles Rams in 24 days
Chris McCain 2/2 c/o Los Angeles Chargers in 31 days
I also sent Chris McCain a Chargers logo 8x10. I've become a big fan of the guy this year with his play on the field and actions off of it and I'm a diehard Bolts fan so I wanted him to be the first to sign a new project featuring as many Chargers as I could get, old and new. Well...he apparently took it upon himself (I'd never ask something like this) to bring it around the locker room and it came back signed by 21 guys including some of the top guys on the team! Needless to say, this one is retired and getting framed and put up on the wall.
Players who signed it:
Jatavis Brown – 57
Brandon Mebane - 92
Trevor Williams – 24
Damion Square – 71
Chris McCain – 40
Casey Heyward – 26
Phillip Rivers – 17
Melvin Ingram - 54
Keenan Allen – 13
Tre Boston – 33
Corey Liuget – 94
Tyrell Williams – 16
Craig Mager – 29
Artavis Scott – 82
Jason Verrett – 22
Geremy Davis – 11
Travis Benjamin – 12
Darius Philon – 93
Andre Patton – 88
Mike Williams – 81
The only one I'm unsure of is the one that looks like #9U. It could be Jeremiah Attaochu (#97) but I don't think so. Also, it could be either Whitney Richardson (#90) or Kaleb Eulls (#96) who are practice squad guys whose signatures I can't even find to cross reference. If anyone has any idea, please let me know haha.

Time for a long overdue update. I took a bit of a break, not sending anything at all out between Thanksgiving and New Year's but the bug to send out started to catch up to me again after some awesome recent returns, including my longest wait since I started collecting! I also got to do my yearly graphing of the NJ Devils recently so I'll post those in here as well.
Brad Bombardir 2/2 c/o Minnesota Wild in 392 days
Patrick Kivlehan 1/1 c/o St. Louis Cardinals in 205 days
Jabari Blash 2/2 c/o El Paso Chihuahuas in 194 days
George Kittle 1/1 c/o San Francisco 49ers in 34 days
Chris Thompson 1/1 c/o Washington Redskins in 28 days
Trey Flowers 1/1 c/o New England Patriots in 23 days
Jacques Caron 2/2 c/o home in 10 days
Eric Chavez 1/1 c/o LA Angels in 518 days
This is one of my most disappointing great returns ever. Chavez is one of my all-time favorite players and one I tried to emulate when I played. He's an extremely tough get TTM so to get this back but have it be wrecked by water damage is just so bittersweet. At least the signature itself still looks great though.
Robin Lord Taylor 1/1 c/o Gotham in 369 days
Cory Michael Smith 1/1 c/o Gotham in 368 days
Andrew Benintendi 1/1 c/o Boston Red Sox in 264 days
Jim Willis 1/1 c/o home in 253 days
Darryl Sittler 1/1 c/o home in 186 days
Success #10 in my NHL Top 100 players 8x10 project.
Landon Lueck 1/1 c/o business in 73 days
This is my newest 8x10 project. I grew up watching (and still do) MTV's Real World/Road Rules Challenge AKA The Challenge. I figured I've been watching this show half my life, might as well try to get some signatures from the former and current competitors and this was my first from one of the GOAT Challenge competitors, Landon from MTV's Real World: Philadelphia!
Micah Hyde 1/1 c/o Buffalo Bills in 67 days
Michael Rasmussen 1/1 c/o Tri-City Americans in 67 days
Uma Thurman 1/1 c/o Broadway show in 20 days
Juan Gonzalez 3/3 c/o home in 173 days
Steve Yzerman 1/1 c/o Tampa Bay Lightning in 2568 DAYS!!!
This is the longest wait I've ever had for a return BY FAR at just over 7 years! I sent this the first year I started sending out TTMs and had long since given up on it. When I got the envelope today I was shocked. My handwriting was different, the stamps were old, I use different envelopes now...hell, not only is it from the era before I started sending glossy photos, but I didn't even know how to format them to fill the entire paper haha. Insane.
And here's my haul from the yearly Devils' team autograph event. They set this up with 2 players per table and 2 hours to get as many as you could, though lines were all cut off by 90 minutes in. I was able to snag 12 autographs in that time which is about the best I could've hoped for. In fact, the only 2 players I was going for that I missed were Jimmy Hayes and Brian Gibbons, who just happened to be paired up with Nico Hischier and Taylor Hall, the two biggest stars on the team. Oh well.
Jesper Bratt
Marcus Johansson
Pavel Zacha
Sami Vatanen
Will Butcher
Drew Stafford
Brian Boyle
I also added 4 new signatures to this piece signed by former and present Devils. These are all guys I've gotten on their own individual photos in past years.
Damon Severson
Ben Lovejoy
Miles Wood
Steve Santini

Thanks. The craziest thing about it to me is that I never would've gotten it had I not moved back into my old place I used to live at when I first started collecting. Now I just need to get him on my NHL 100 photo. If I send it now I should have it back by 2025 haha.

Also wanted to share this, not an autograph but still really cool to me. Not sure if there are any pro wrestling fans reading my thread but on my weekends I wrestle on smaller local independent shows all across the Northeast and recently got to meet and share a locker room with one of my heroes (pun partially intended), Shane Helms AKA The Hurricane and I just had to get a photo of the occasion. Awesome guy too.
