Recent Trends in TTM<\/p>\n
I’ve looked across the web to see what players have been signing and what players have been sending stuff back unsigned. The numbers following the info (1\/2 for instance) show how many were signed and how many were sent. I tried to list how long they took if a date was recorded.
\n
\nBaseball<\/b>
\nThese are non-spring training successes – not very many yet.<\/p>\n
Glenn Hoffman C\/O Padres – Coach who played in the ’80s. Took 11 days.
\nChase Wright C\/O Nashville Sound – Former Yankee farmhand that was traded to the Brewers. Took 5 days.<\/p>\n
Basketball<\/b>
\nBasketball is probably to late to send this year. With the playoffs almost ready to start, most players won’t return mail.<\/p>\n
Mike Bibby C\/O Hawks (2\/2) – No date given.
\nPau Gasol C\/O Lakers (2\/2) – This took 6 months to receive.
\nYao Ming C\/O Rockets (1\/1) – Took 7 days.
\nDirk Nowitzki C\/O Mavericks (1\/1) – Took 48 days.
\nJohn Pelphrey C\/O U of Arkansas (1\/1) – No date given.<\/p>\n
Football<\/b>
\nSince it’s the off-season, success will most likely be from long returns. I’d recommend sending as soon as training camps start (or the season is camp is away from their home city).<\/p>\n
Drew Brees C\/O Saints (1\/1) – Took 50 days.
\nMack Brown C\/O U of Texas (1\/1) – One that can also be found on e-mail. You can get his e-mail and he’ll send a signed photo.
\nWarrick Dunn C\/O Bucs (1\/1) – Took 126 days.
\nBo Pelini C\/O U of Nebraska (1\/1) – No date given.
\nReggie Smith II C\/O 49ers (2\/2) – Took 101 and 138 days in 2 returns.
\nDeAngelo Williams C\/O Panthers (1\/2) – This took 176 days.<\/p>\n
Golf<\/b>

\nZach Johnson C\/O PGA Tour (1\/1) – No date given.
\nCasey Martin C\/O PGA Tour (1\/1) – Took a week.
