welcome to philadelphia, now create a scene and sign an autograph for louie guadwopguido

Adult autograph seekers who wait and stalk athletes are the worst

I still run into people who ask me if I am going to the Pro Bowl to get autographs every year it's here.  I look at them with a deep stare that says I'd like to strangle them and try to kindly remind them that I am about 100 years old and I have moved on thank you. I used to take my son when he was 4, 5, 6 years old when my compnay had on field practice passes (which is how I actually got to meet Spadaro) back in 2001.  That was fun as the joy and excitement it brought to my son being up close and personal to the players he worshiped was priceless.  My son is now 19 and could give a shtein if Cam Newton or Richard Sherman asked him "hey, want my autograph?"  Seeing the 45 year old kooks with their duffle bags full of team helmets and mini footballs foaming at the mouth was sickening.  Even worse when they'd try and get kids to go get them autographs.

as long as hes not doing commercials with his mom im fine with it

[ice grillin you]

if he was 18 or 19 years old like an nba player I get it...or if him and his bro were gonna come together....or if his brother was 32

but hes 23 and his 26 year old brother AND wife are giving up valid careers to come and be his personal assistants??

[QB Eagles]

Zach doesn't plan to seek a teaching or coaching job here, he'll just look out for his brother, who will get a four-year contract worth more than $26 million, under the terms of the collective bargaining agreement. That will allow him to buy a real bed, and maybe one for his dog, Henley, as well.

"We grew up in Bismarck. I like my job, I like what I do there. But anybody in their right mind would pack up and do this for a sibling, no doubt," Zach Wentz said.

"I sure do love working at my job every day in North Dakota. But the least I can do for my little brother is quit working, move to a real metropolitan area, and sponge off him for the next few years."

Moving to the big city is scary, man

hes a yokel from a town where they think jews have horns and all black people are criminals....hes moving to a different planet. cant blame him for having some kind of support system or someone he knows.

its like when the phillies sign a cuban and he brings his brother or a boy or two to just have a semblance of normalcy when hes at home. i dont blame him. if theyre still there in 6 years, thats a different story. of course wentz will be back in north dakota coaching high school then, so...

[ice grillin you]

like I said it might be a totally normal thing....did roflburger bring his peoples from ohio...or jerry rice to san fran...I just don't know

I've heard of players bringing family with them to new places - keeping a tight inner circle

[ice grillin you]

I've heard of players bringing family with them to new places

heard from who?

who are these players....not saying you are wrong...im sure there one example ever

but im genuinely interested in old rookies who arent going to play their first year uprooting a siblings family to move with them

I think I may have heard of a parent or two doing it for a teenager but not a four year 23 year old

[PhillyPhreak54]

Man I'd have to do some searching but it's been mentioned before in articles about how so and so's mother or brother moved with them or a cousin. Their job titles are usually personal assistant or business manager. I'm surprised it's not something you recall since you read a lot

[Diomedes]

he talks a lot...don't confuse that for reading a lot
