Hey guys! Long time no see, huh? Well I have learned one thing about autograph collecting since the last update, you have to send out to get stuff back. Well I finally sent out one request c/o email last week. I will go ahead and tell you the whole story.

Last week I was looking in Central Missouri State University's Student Directory for the personal email address for their star basketball player Corey Brown. I found it and dropped him an email. On Thursday night I get an email from him thanking me for my support, and that he had sent me something and that he hoped I would like it. Well I get home from school on Fri. to find a baglike envelope in the mailbox. I open it up to see an autographed worn scrimmage jersey that read " To Blake, Corey Brown #12 MIAA Champion! ". He even sent me a Hallmark thank you card and signed that as well! This is definently my favorite success ever!

Received 1 success today, a football one:

• Justin Gage 1/1 c/o Bears

Today I sent to Donovan McNabb and Julius Peppers both to their home addresses.

Another basketball success today:

• Erick Dampier 1/1 22 Days c/o Mavericks
