fellas,

i want to get an auto football of a player and want to know a few things

1) what type of football - never got a football signed but i am thinking of buying the official wilson football. what are your thoughts on this?

2) what type of pen/ink/marker - here lies the issue. i don't know anything about getting a football signed. what do you guys recommend? what color? i've seen black, silver, gold if i recall. samples would be greats with pics!

thanks!

Get the official NFL ball signed, especially if its a PC item. Signed in silver looks the best, imo. Heres a pic of a football i bought, signed in silver. I bought this shortly after Eli won the SB mvp and im very happy with it.

yes, i am def. going for the real wilson football

as for silver, you are right. looks very nice!

now, i wonder if in the signing, they will provide the pen/marker or do i need to get it? it's such a short notice though...

If its a paid signing, you would think they would have every pen imaginable, including a nice silver pen for footballs, i guess it wouldn't hurt to bring your own though. Can i ask who you plan on getting the Football signed by?

Got about 10 Chargers signatures on it that Spring Training.

Yeah, go with an Official On Field ball and silver paint pen. Never ever get one of those white panel balls. The sigs fade and bleed of those.
