Long time Cincinnati Red Joey Votto is retiring from baseball. Votto played with the Reds for 17 years. He attempted to play with the Toronto Blue Jays this year but never made it out of the minor leagues.
My through the mail baseball autograph success. Former and current sports stars will sign autographs through the mail. A great hobby for any sports fan. As time has ticked on, I have added life events, fantasy sports commentary and I'm sharing my sports card hits pulled along with my card grading journey. I'm just a lifelong sports fan who has more time to dedicate to the many hobbies that the love of sports can kick you into.

Sending Fan Pack Requests for the first time in years
For the first time in a couple years I decided to dabble in my TTM and team fan pack hobby.
Using information from fans on Sportscard forum, I sent postcards to the Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs, New York Yankees and St. Louis Cardinals.
The hope funpacks will arrive. Some fans report receiving bobbleheads from the Yankees.
I also sent an email to the Chicago White Sox.

Texas filmmaker's Tony Romo documentary now on Amazon
The person I interviewed was Chris Hanna, the filmmaker who created “Now or Never: A Tony Romo Story,” a documentary now streaming on Amazon Prime.
I have been a journalist for over 20 years and interviewed many, but the last five years I have been in a slumber. Don't know if this is what it took to wake me up, but we will see. The following is the story and a couple photos that Chris supplied for the story.

The Lonesome Locust
Have you heard the Lonesome Locust?
He is the last locust of the season still singing.
Stop. Look up at the tree
Do you hear that tune?
The last sounds of the season.
Lucky to still be alive, least that’s what one might think.
He has lost his peers and still plays his tymbal.
Still searching for another but none is there.
Slowly the tune ends and the sounds of silence returns.
The lonesome locust has played possibly his last tune
and at least one lonesome human was there to hear it.
