Gentlemen!

I would like to start by thanking Frost for starting this post. When I originally read this about 1 1/2 months ago I decided, what the heck, I will put together a letter for my favorite player, CHRIS COOOOOLey, and thank him for being a great Redskin and having an amazing season for us.

To my surprise I brought the mail in last night and handed it to my wife like always, she pays the bills, and she spits off: "Chris Cooley, yea right"! So, it took a few brief seconds for it to sink in with me and I yelled OMG give it to me. She thought this was some sort of joke as I never told her that I had written to him. I kind of starred at the outside of the letter, as it was clearly a mans hand writing as he seemed to put this together himself as you will notice on the picture. I slowly and gently opened it up and to my surprise received a signed pro bowl picture of Cooley, with a hand written note on the back that said " Andrew, thanks for being such an amazing fan, hope to have a great season" then his name signed again on the back of the pic.

I know my explanation may sound a little over the top but it is just truly amazing that an NFL player of his stature is willing to take time on his off-season to get pictures, sign them and personally address envelopes and mail them out to fans. This was bigger then just getting the picture, it was another part and reason why I love my skins so dearly. Anyways, I will stop there before I make anyone barf on there monitors..haha! Top to bottom classy guy.

The print seems ok, but you can tell he cut it out himself because the line where he cut my picture is all kinds of crooked. Like I was trying to say earlier, I enjoyed the fact that he personally took time to do this himself even more so then the autograph because it shows what kind of guy he is. I have a jersey signed by him as well that I have posted below. One of these days I will tell the story as to how I got this........(very funny)!

PS: I personally built the case and am going to be selling them soon! You will also notice in the background that I have custom painted my whole basement with this design.
