Pat Neshek is a heck of a guy. Not only is he a collector, he helps other collectors as well. Pat runs the Phillies clubhouse autograph scene and helps us fellow collectors procure autographs of certain teammates. Today I received a Trevor Plouffe 2010 eTopps card and a 2012 Carl Pavano card signed by Drew Butera (who is featured on it) that Pat helped me obtain. This is the fourth or so time I have sent in and have been extremely pleased each time. THANK YOU PAT! You are a first year hall of famer in the Autograph Hall of Fame!

Feeling Chipper
Today we returned from our vacation and in the pile of mail was a couple Hall of Fame postcards signed by Chipper Jones. Isaias F (franco on SCN) had a private signing with Chipper and I wanted a postcard signed. I told my pal Jim W about it and he wanted one too so I sent in a pair. They look great. Thanks for your efforts Franco!
Klesko
Today I received my Sports Illustrated magazine I sent to Jim D (jdduck on SCN) for a signing he was having with Ryan Klesko. Ryan is featured on the cover of the 11.06.1995 Sports Illustrated magazine where the Braves players are mobbing each other after winning the World Series. It was signed in a the perfect location with a perfect marker! Thanks Jim!
Old McDonald Signed My SI, E-I-E-I-O
Today I received my 07.18.1994 Sports Illustrated magazine signed by Ben McDonald. I had previously gotten Mike Mussina to sign it and needed Ben to complete it. I recently saw that Tim V (Sigs4Soldiers on SCN) had a contact with Ben and I messaged asking if I could send my SI to get signed along with a sizable donation. Today I received it signed beautifully! It is awesome! To date, Tim has raised over $40,000 for Military Missions In Action through his Sigs4Soldiers program!
