Yesterday's mail brought me the autograph of football great, Jackie Burkett. He signed for me his 1989 Auburn University Collegiate Collections card. Jackie was a great center. He was an All-American at Auburn in 1958 and 1959, and went on to play for the Colts, Cowboys, and Saints for 10 years in the NFL. Jackie was also a major part of NFL history; he was the long snapper for the Saints kicker Tom Dempsey's NFL-record 63-yard field goal.

Yesterday was a nice day for in-person autographs. I went to another Atlanta Falcons Tailgate Team event, this time in Canton, GA, just a few miles up the road from the house. There, I met Jason Snelling, who plays running back for us. Jason signed for me my 2010 Falcons mini-football. He has done a really good job for us so far this season; 226 yards rushing, 9 catches for 74 yards, and 3 total touchdowns through 4 games. I also purchased 5 Kraft products and picked up a signed 8x10 of Falcons wide receiver, Harry Douglas. Harry is coming off an injury last year, and looks fantastic so far this season; 9 catches for 130 yards and scored his first touchdown of the year last week against the 49ers. Nice way to top off a long work day.

Very disappointed in this one. Got back a response from Karl Dunbar, current Vikings defensive line coach, and former All-SEC defensive lineman from LSU, and in the NFL with the Saints and Cardinals, sent back my card unsigned wrapped up in official Minnesota Vikings stationary.

Yesterday's mail brought me a signed custom card I made of Hockey Hall of Fame coach, Scotty Bowman. Scotty was an incredible coach, and won 9 Stanley Cup titles with the Candiens (5), Penguins (1), and Red Wings (3).

Today's mail brought me a 1989-1990 Topps hockey card autographed by Hockey Hall of Famer, Al MacInnis. Al was a 15-time NHL All-Star, and the Conn Smythe Trophy winner in 1989 when he helped lead the Flames to the Stanley Cup title. He would go on to be a great player and captain for the Blues, and help lead Canada to a gold medal in hockey in the 2002 Winter Olympics. Al also has the hardest slapshot ever in the history of the NHL, once being clocked at 98.9 mph!

Today's mail brought me a 1976-1977 O Pee Chee Flyers team checklist card signed by Hockey Hall of Famer, Keith Allen. Keith is the general manager for the Philadelphia Flyers, and built that franchise into the winner that we all know it to be today.

Keep'em comin'! I got 2 all-time great autographs today from the world of hockey in the mail today. Both Bobby Clarke and Bill Barber each signed the custom cards I made of them. Bobby was the centre and Bill was the left wing on that famous "LCB" line for the Flyers back in the 1970's, affectionately known as "The Broad Street Bullies." These 2 guys, along with Reggie Leach at right wing, could simply take over a game and physically manhandle opposing players like nobody's business. They are both Hockey Hall of Famers, and I was really excited about getting these 2 today!

Today was a great day for autographs in the mail box! I received autographs from former LSU and Cardinals, Rams, and Chargers linebacker, Eric Hill, as well as Hockey Hall of Famer, Bernie Federko. Eric signed for me his 1990 LSU Collegiate Collections card and Bernie signed for me a custom card that I made of him. Eric was an All-SEC linebacker in 1988, and went on to a fantastic 11-year NFL career. Bernie is one of hockey's all-time greats, and was the first NHL player ever to record 50 assists for 10 staright seasons.

Today, I stopped by one of our local Publix grocery stores on the way home from work that was having a Atlanta Falcons Tailgate Team fan promotion, and while there, got to meet and get autographs of current Falcons defensive end, John Abraham, and former Falcons quarterback, David Archer. John signed a Falcons mini-football fans could get by purchasing 5 Kraft products, and David signed for me his 1987 Topps card. Both were so nice and gracious to all the fans who attended.

Today's mail brought me an autograph of Eddie Palubinskas, former All-SEC basketball guard for LSU and member of the 1972 and 1976 Australian Olympic basketball team. He signed for me his 1990 LSU Collegiate Collections card. Eddie was a fantastic basketball player, and was at one time, the all-time scoring leader in Olympic basketball history. He holds numerous Guinness world records for free throw shooting, and has an extensive coaching career at the high school, college, and pro level.
