NFL TTM Thread

Also, I met Chris Houston at the mall the other day. It was stupid everyone running up to him asking for pictures and autographs SMH. I just left him alone, it looked like he was shopping with his mom.

You know it's funny, timing really is everything. I hate it when you see someone get bombarded like that with people running up like idiots. If you walk up to a person calmly and and like a regular human being, you chances are much better. If someone looks like they're just out having a nice day with their family, people need to back up and just let the dude have his day. Gives collectors like us, who have restraint, a bad name.

And good luck with your Kyle Orton letter, he's probably one of my next guys!

Ty. I also am getting some 4 x 6's in the mail soon. Going to send to some college players like Isaiah Crowell, Marcus Lattimore, Alshon Jeffery, Matt Barkley, Andrew Luck, Trent Richardon, & Lamichael James. Going to send to some current guys: Mario Williams, DeAngelo Williams, Von Miller, Louis Delmas, Steven Jackson, & Dirk Nowitzki (NBA). And some former players: Eric Dickerson, Harry Carson, Marshall Faulk, Isaac Bruce (one of him only, one of him & holt I'm hoping to get him & Torry Holt to sign), Gary Payton (NBA), & a picture of Rich Eisen running a 40.

Bruce is apparently signing but I've only seen 1 success recently of him, which really surprised me.

Faulk recently stated that he carries around a 40 gallon tub of letters and signs day and night. If you 'donate' 28.00 (his jersey number) he is more likely to sign through his foundation. I've heard it's a 6 month wait.

Don't quote me but I think Mar or somebody had a recent Jackson success, and it was like a month or something through the Rams.

Awesome! I emailed Isaac Bruce & Torry Holt's foundation. Bruce wants 50 dollars for a flat item, and 100 dollars for bigger items Holt's foundation hasn't answered yet. Although somebody on SCF sent to Bruce's home & got a free autograph, but was told to send to his foundation and nobody has heard back from his home address yet.

I had a Steven Jackson success through Rams training camp, so I'm assuming you were thinking of me. I don't recall the exact amount of time, but it was around a month wait, I believe.

In the last 2 weeks, I've sent requests out to:

D.J. Williams
James Laurinaitis
Greg Jennings
Eddie Royal
Ryan Fitzpatrick
Jabar Gaffney
Michael Oher

After getting Lorenzo Alexander and Reed Doughty recently, I haven't had any other successes. Now I play the waiting game.

Sent to FitzPatrick c/o Bills TC in July, still haven't heard back. I also sent to Gaffney c/o Redskins TC in August, still nothing. I think leebo sent to Gaffney too, but I can't be 100% sure. I'll let you know if I have any luck. Let me know on Jennings, he's on my list of requests I'd like to send out.

Hey guys, long time reader, first post. I was wondering about Warren Sapp. I have a Buccaneers mini helmet and was wondering if he is reliable enough to send the mini helmet to be signed. Will I get it back?

[Nato64]

Also, I have another quick question. I like the idea about writing to college players, but I have no idea how to go about it. An example is Tyler Bray at Tennessee. I know from when I went to college there was a certain way to address mail so it goes to the students. How do I address an autograph request to Someone like Tyler Bray?

I've never sent to him myself, but I believe I've read a few different times that he is hard to get. I personally wouldn't try to send anything to him, but then again, I never was a huge fan of his.

As for getting addresses to colleges, it's not very hard most of the time, from my experiences...but, again, I've only tried this a couple of times. Dig around on the school's website first and if that doesn't work...get to Googling.

Hopefully some of the other guys here can help you more. They have been doing this longer than me and know more about it than I do. Good luck!
