Two successes...
A pair of college successes arrived in the mailbox on Saturday...
UCLA star point guard Darren Collison signed and returned both index cards I sent to him back in early January care of the UCLA athletic department. That request took a total of 52 days.
North Carolina baseball star Chad Flack, meanwhile, signed and returned both index cards I sent his way care of the UNC athletic department. That success took 43 days, and it puts me over the 45% success rate, probably the highest I've ever had for any sport.
