I saw that @krohnscaptures recently mailed cards to 50 current/former Vikings players to see how many signatures he can get, and it reminded me of when I spent a summer doing the same as a teenager. Here are the highlights of that effort. One of the players he’s trying for, Gus Frerotte, was someone I had success with more than twenty years ago. My mailing list was a random assortment of players, but it makes sense when you know that NFL Primetime was one of the soundtracks of my childhood.
