Maybe I should ask Ann Ladd.........

 

By the way little off topic, but has anyone seen a photo of her? I saw it and It sent a cold shiver down my spine.......

 

Anyways back to autographs, I will try and send something to him this week, and wait for a year.

ya, that is where you would send it, unless you can find his home address

 

And when you find it don't send your ball in the mail. Take it to his house and stand in his yard until he comes outside. That way he'll be happy that you didn't inconvenience him by ringing the doorbell.

If you want Ueck, I'd seriously wait until they have Braves Day at Miller Park, that's where I got him...it was a long line though, so get there early...everyone wanted him while there wasn't many people in line for Johnny Logan and other names that stood out...Hank Aaron wasn't there, obviously.

 

My mailman gets autographs pretty frequently, he says hes already gotten the entire team by going to the stadium around 1:00 and waiting for players...Jenkins used to be a tough sign, but I think after last season, he's really opened up and will talk to people a lot...Counsell and Turnbow are the hardest to get

 

I've heard Turnbow hates signing now because of how the fans booed him off the field a few times last year...I don't remember anyone booing Counsell last year, but I spose it's possible, or maybe he's just a jerk?

 

Everyone else is pretty accessible you just gotta go early enough, by about 3, everyone is in the stadium so you can go start tailgating before the game...Suppan, Weeks, Hall, and Capuano I've been told will sign for everybody all the time. This is why I wouldn't spend money on getting any of em at a local shop, but for some it's hard to make it to the keg on time for autograph fridays.

Yeah, some people say he began to struggle after the All-Star break, I think his troubles began after his bobblehead day. Didn't he have a rough outing that night?

 

Yeah I was there with my fiancee sitting in the Friday Front Row tables and he really fell apart that night and never really recovered after that.

 

On a autograph not. I sent out a card today to Geoff Jenkins via the mail with a SASE to get signed. How long you think I will have to wait to get that back?

Through the mail I didn't have good luck with brewer players this spring training. I sent SASE to Cory Hart, Jeff Suppan, Ryan Braun, Coco, Bill Hall, and Zack Jackson, and the only player who returned was Zack Jack. However, I didn't have that great of luck overall, because out of the 25 players I sent to the only players who returned were Zack Jack,Lyle Overbay, Mike Mussina, Michael Young (Postcard).

I wouldn't hold your breath for Jenkins because in my experience he hasn't returned often, but I would try Ben Sheets because I sent a card out last season and he returned it in a week.

Turnbow is an excellent signer. I went to get an autograph of him at the clubhouse store last year and he showed up a half hour early. That really left me with quite the impression.

P.S. Does anybody know if any of the old braves will be signing on braves day?

Hey Guys, I called Jeff's today about the Bill Hall signning I wanted to see what the ticket sales were like. He said that they would hope to sell out by the end of this weekend. Since he told me that, I purchased my ticket over the phone and I was #66. I just thought I would give everyone a heads up!

I had decent seats before the game on Sunday, got into the stadium right when the doors opened and went to my seats in section 110. Once most of the players went in the clubhouse after batting practice Capuano went over by the rail there and just walked up and went up and down the line probably twice without anyone yelling for him to come sign, came over on his own.

 

Seems like a nice guy, as others have said.
