It's not that I'm complaining or anything, but one of the risks of getting autographs through the mail is receiving a smudged card. Despite my best efforts to rub down a card and make it more receptive to ink, a player's haste, especially when dropping freshly signed cards back into the stamped, self-addressed envelope, can lead to less-than-perfect signatures.Want proof? Take a look at these four cards received in yesterday's mail from San Jose's Steve Bernier. While we're most appreciative that he took the time to honor our request, three of the four autographs are smudged.
Still, though, no major quibbling. Bernier is the third player overall, and the first of the second round of mailings, to send back signed cards.
