I do not work there.. I'm not advertising. I just wanted to pass it along if anyone is interested. Cotchery Brad Smith Brett Ratliff 3/28 1-3pm at Pro image in Freehold Mall. $35 bucks for cotch $15 Smith $15 Ratliff
I'd meet Cotch, and die hards will want to go see Ratliff in person. I don't have the time to go to Freehold... wait for TC, get it for free.
just out of curiosity since ive never been to one of these types of things: who does this money go to? i assume/hope cotchery, smith and ratliff arent trying to make an extra few bucks signing autographs so who is profiting from this and why should i pay them? unless of course this is some charity thing in which case i am all for it...
The players are under some kind of contract with marketing or autograph companies. The store Pro-Image im sure is making something off this signing also. Triumph Sports usually runs a big football spectaculiar signing in Edison. its cancelled this year,im assuming because of the economy
Hey dad, I spent $30 at the mall today. Oh thats nice son, what did you get? Brad Smith and Brett Ratlif's autographs. Thats nice son. I did the same thing today when I flushed $30 down the toilet.
I would love to go there just to meet the guys. I think it's ridiculous to pay $35 to a guy for him to write his signature on a picture/card, even though I would probably fork over the money just because of my passion for the Jets. I would much rather get a picture taken with a Jets player than have their signature, but that's just me.
I was in that store last Saturday and took home the advertisement. Under the Ratliff photo it says "Future QB." Under the Cotchery photo- "Superstar Playmaker". "Utility Man" is below the Smith photo. for more info call 732-577-0290
nice, im going back to NC to finish the semester but im going to have to tell my brother about that. last year me and him went to long island and i got cotch and baker on the same helmet. id go and get ratty just incase he is our guy
35 bucks for a fuckin autograph, of a guy who has had how many 1000 yard seasons? 1 in his 5 years here. im sorry, i mean i like this guy and think he is a very good #2 wr but seriously 35 bucks for an autograph. this is the type of shit that is wrong with the nfl these days. i feel bad for all of you guys who do go spend 65 bucks for 3 autographs. jesus could you imagine what it would cost for a big name players autograph. scary.
From what I understand, the players get a set appearance fee and the store gets the per autograph fee. If nobody shows up to buy autographs the store takes a hit. I agree, paying for an autograph is silly especially since the players are usually accessible in and around training camp.
I would never pay for an autograph I dont give a shit who it is. Its bad enough a fucking jersey cost a $100..and those arent even for the authentics.
