I never thought I’d still be going strong at TTM autograph requests 7 years after I got back into the hobby. It is the sincere kindness of players who responded to me honoring my requests that make this happen, and I acknowledge and thank them for their continuing patience and contribution to the hobby and fans. Probably my greatest regret growing up was not continuing to play football. I listened to my inner voice, and to others telling me that I was no good- when really I was not all that bad. I still have haunting dreams where coach tells me to go into a game, and I still smell the grass when I wake up. I know that it seems trivial, but for some of us fans and former players who love the sport and remember the better moments in time, there’s nothing greater than an autograph that symbolizes it.
