At Training Camp - Joke or Not Funny At All [THREAD CLOSED]
I don't know quite what to make of the autograph thing anymore. My 8 year old son got Drews the other day as we just happened to be standing where Drew walked up. But we weren't there to even try and get it. We were literally attacked by a swarm of kids pushing my son up into the barrier until I said something to them and they back off abit. Just before that another kid pushed a helmet up to a player and the player (not going to name him as no need) said hey I got that yesterday. My point is these players sign all of this stuff each day and I would say 90% of the people they sign for don't have a clue who they are unless they see their name on their jersey. So, due to that I think it has become a joke to the players. And I don't blame them. Sure they are getting paid a ton of money to play a game but the autograph thing has to be one of the worst things they are expected to do. Sucks for your friend but I also see why the players may do some of the things they do.
