When I did these Super Bowl MVP cards back in 2022, I sent my friend Rick a copy of the Desmond Howard card since he was such a big fan of the Packers. Then I sent one out to Desmond myself.
Whether it got lost in the mail or Desmond saw it and kept it, I didn’t get mine back- but Rick did. I was pretty sad about it. I mean not like at Rick. No it was this feeling that punched my TTM desire in the gut. I just felt tired after not getting this one back in 2022 as I put a lot of work into these and I thought he’d be excited to sign.
Anyway I decided to give another shot this year after seeing a few successes on SCN and didn’t really expect anything. Lo and behold almost 6 months after I sent it, this one came back!
Unlike just sending TTM to players and what I interpret as letting them know that they are feeling seen- when I do customs- or hacks in this case, it is I who feels seen when they sign them.
In 2012, joined the Buccaneers for a 2 year stint as a defensive line coach.
Following that Bryan coached DL for the Falcons from 2014-’16.
In 2022, Bryan began- coaching with the Giants in 2022 as an assistant line coach.
NOTES:
You know- no risk, no reward. I went ahead and shot this card out as it was a strong set need for me. He had previously sent it back unsigned way back in… 2011. In fact he had sent back any rookie cards unsigned, so the fact I got his Score Supplemental 92 seemed like a win for me since it was that set’s first card of him.
Anyway 200+ days later, here it surprisingly was. A big win for me, and a great card in this set to get autographed.
The previous card that I had gotten from Eddie was gifted to my from my friend Lance, so I thought I’d try him TTM. Long rumored to not sign any Rams cards due to the fallout he had with the franchise, I thought my best bet would be to ask him to sign some Chiefs cards. Well, he signed one of two, opting not to sign the Upper Deck MVP card- but that’s okay, I really like this red parallel that he was kind enough to sign for me.
Celebrating the game, the players, the cards, and the autographs for over 25 years.
