Philadelphia Eagles / Flyers

Last year the Eagles held a military appreciation day at their mini-camp. After their practice, the whole team stayed out on the field while a couple hundred military members came out and mingled with the team, getting autographs and having pictures taken with the players. There I met Donovan McNabb and got his autograph on an 8x10 photo and a mini-helmet, Brian Westbrook on a 8x10, and Brian Dawkins on an 8x10. I had my picture taken with Takeo Spikes and Jerremiah Trotter, neither of whom are still on the Eagles a mere 1 year later. In fact, Trotter got cut a week after the mini-camp. I asked McNabb if we were gonna beat the Patriots this time, and he assured me we would
We didn't, but we were the first to come close last year!
Also, and this was a while ago, but back in '98 I attended a Flyers' Wives Fight for Lives carnival, held annually in memory of Barry Ashbee. There I met and got sigs from many of the Flyers' players, the biggest name being Paul Coffey. I also got Dainus Zubrus, Trent Klatt, Eric Desjardins, Joel Otto, Luke Richardson, Petr Svoboda, and Janne Niinamaa.
And those are my in person autographs.
