The autographs look pretty good to me, but I'm not sure. Of course Maris may have been invited to the meeting, if it was Mantle day or something, o'wise, like previously stated, he wasn't a Yankee after 66
I usually let spelling slide. I type rather poorly myself, and at the moment my keyboard is a bit too far left of center on the desk. Also, when I'm trying to type quickly double letters often don't happen. I could adjust the keyboard to be more sensitive, but that only makes other errors worse. Hopefully getting a computer desk soon will fix some of that. On top of that I rarely use spellcheck. My other hobbies have enough obscure technical terms that spellcheck doesn't know that it's not much help. And set to auto correct makes a total jumble of things. Now the mixing of tenses that some people use like "Needs restored" made me a bit crazy till I found out it's a common thing in some regions. That one is apparently common aroung Pittsburg.

The ball - That's right, it's supposed to be about the ball. It just doesn't look right to me.
