LeSean McCoy 2nd Annual Charity Softball game

I went Lancaster Clipper Magazine stadium for the LeSean McCoy softball game.  Once again there was a lot of "confirmed" NFL players that were suppose to be there but did not show up. Darrelle Revis, Ray Rice, PlaxicoBurress, Mike Wallace, Marques Colston, DeSean Jackson & Michael Vick all no shows! So with that said the guys that showed signed and were around taking pictures and talking to fans before the game and between innings. As for the game the Eagles side won 23-21 with a bottom of the 7th rally aided by LeSean giving his team an extra out.  The Following is what I got signed:
1) Chris "Handles" Franklin (Harlem Globetrotters)- 3x5.
2) Torrey Smith - 8x10.
3) Brent Celek - 8x10 & a Card.

Brooks Robinson

I went to Springwood Golf Course today the site of the York Revolutions Golf outing and got 9 cards of Brooks Robinson signed. I was there about 30 minutes and only saw 2 Revs players Stephen Penney and James Shanks which I didn't have anything for them to sign. But Brooks was the main reason I figured I'd stop by and see if he was accessible and as usual he was and in a great mood and looking good.
