LOL!!! I've never been into the autograph thing. I just don't understand it. As long as Landry plays like he did against Seattle I really don't care if he blows off autograph signings.

Here's what I don't get. The attitude that "I don't collect autographs, ergo everyone that collects autographs is incomprehensible to me." The point that everyone has made here, is just that if you don't want to sign then don't say you will. If you make a commitment then follow through. That is not really a difficult concept, I think its just being a decent person. Clearly no one is saying, Landry didn't show to the signing he should get cut, the point is just that if you make a commitment in life you should follow through.

I also don't think that getting an autograph on a piece of paper or photograph makes a whole lot of sense, but getting some equipment signed (i.e. authentic jersey or Proline helmet) makes a great display and conversation piece. I wouldn't think that would be such an odd thing for a sports fan to understand. For instance, I love my Chris Cooley Proline Revolution helmet and I bet if I were to offer it to you you wouldn't mind having it either ... come on. http://www.redskinswarpath.com/redsk...ley+revolution

I with you 100%. Landry SHOULD NOT blow off the fans. But as I said he's just a kid himself and I'm sure it's something he'll regret when he's older. I'm not making excuses for him but how old is the guy 23 or 24? He's probably enjoying his 1st off season as a pro, he's got $ in his pocket and the last thing he probably wants to do is sign autographs.

That's a nice helmet and it you'd offer it to me I'd take it in a hearbeat. Would I pay $100 for it? No. I have a ton of Skins stuff that isn't signed. My favorite is an old Sonny Jurgenson picture of him in the pocket throwing a pass. It just a great photo but I've never felt the need to go and try to get him to sign it. I understand why people like signitures on jersey's, pics and so on but it's just not my thing.
