If he didn't want to sign, why didn't he just say no?

[Anthony]

I'm kidding--sort of. I asked Gorzelanny for his autograph after the Cubs/Padres game on Tuesday. He gave me this:

I make it a point not to pester the players. If he didn't want to sign that would have been fine with me, but instead I got this.

well, its a 1/1 scribble card at least. :lol: :lol:

That's nothing compared to this one I got TTM:

It appears you are a Padres fan, so be happy he stopped and signed (or scribbled) for you.
No offense, but if I were player, I would not sign on the road unless the person was wearing my teams apparel.

Wow! That is a dick move on a guy who is really nice! I have met him twice and he gave me a nice sig once and the other time was after a game. He is a very religious dude to. I can't believe he did that!

 

[RL24]

I dunno, I think it's pretty close to his usual scribble...

Since it was a TTM auto I highly doubt he signed that. Just my $.02

I hear ya. It sounds unlike him to do something like that.

 

[JEA2880]

Exactly, my thinking is it never got to Masterson and someone decided to mess with me.

 

[dadofandrew]

lol it looks like my certified auto

Dude...if you go to an astros game you'd better be trying to get the visiting team because the astros(home team) hardly sign at all.That is why I have so many autos.If I go to a game I never get the astros to sign because a lot of times they won't.The visiting team always will and does.I have never walked away from a game where we didn't get at least 3 autos from the visiting team(but in most cases more).

If I can remember it was a TTM, so I doubt Justin did that..

Perhaps I'm a bit nostalgic, but you asked for him to sign your card, he then proceded to sign your card, yes? What more do you want? The player held your card, penned his mark and handed it back to you. Is this not the reason for asking? Is not the reason so you can have a keepsake that has been touched, held by said player, inscribed and then returned, giving you something to hold and remember him by? Are you somehow going to forget that moment because the auto was not to your liking(for whatever reason)?

If your intention was to get a keepsake, something to remember him and the moment buy, then mission complete!

 

[tramers]

i get about 20 autos a night at minor games and night to night one players auto will look different . They don't have to sign but most are willing when asked nicely even if i'm wearing home team cap

Thanks for your response. Do you need a ladder to get down?

That was solid sir. Good job with that.

Wait...

Your the one bitching because you asked for an auto, actually got one, then complain you do not like the way he signed it, and I'm on the high horse? The point of my thread was to knock you off of yours.. Strike 2 against your failed logic.

That was solid sir. Good job with that.

What exactly was solid? A good job??

I would say the dude has a good sense of humor and printed his name because it already had a facsimile auto on it. Just a thought.

 

[Adamsince1981]

Mantafold is 100% correct and wasn't on his "high horse" at all...
