06/21/09-I just can't get over how few returns came in this week. I have sent out SO MANY requests lately. I just know the tide will turn here soon. Here is hoping for next week. I did get Ozzie Timmons for my Mariners collection, also I finally updated my Washington State Sports Hall of Fame section on the "Other" page so it shows all the Autographs I have for that collection.

06/13/09-This weeks returns include Jarrod Washburn (Ms), Bobby Thigpen (Ms), and Mark Rypien (Other). I was also fortunate enough to have a fellow team collector (expo94) from thebenchtrading.com send me a few Paul Spoljaric autographs for my Mariners collection. Turns out that Otis Nixon was supposed to be a Jays alumni signing autographs, Nixon cancelled and they replaced him with Spoljaric. So expo94 found one of my home-made cards, made some tweaks to it and came up with a nice last minute item for Spoljaric to sign. The rumor is that Spoljaric liked the design so I'm going to send a few to him as a thank you. As always to see my autographs just go to the appropriate page and click on the player name.

06/06/09-Wow, what a great week to start out the June. I've been sending out tons of requests lately so the rest of the Summer should be busy. Here are this weeks TTM returns: Shawn Kelley (Ms), Iziane Castro Marquis (Storm), R.A. Dickey (Ms), Tom Davey (Ms), Curt Warner (Seahawks), Mark Lowe (Ms), and Tug Hulett (Ms).
