Really Cool TTM mailday!
Hello all,
I was a huge Ryan Broyles collector when the 2012 draft class first came out. Unfortunately things came up with school and I had to sell off the collection I built. However, when I was buying his cards left and right I decided to right him a letter to show my support. Well a couple weeks ago I went on twitter and saw he followed me as well as gave me a shoutout! Now today I go out and get the mail and see this waiting for me. Honestly the coolest thing to happen to me since starting the hobby. Im bummed I no longer have his collection, but at least I can frame this and hang it in my man cave of my apartment
Thanks for looking!
Scott

wow. That is honestly one of the coolest things Ive seen in this hobby. Kinda sucks you dont have your PC anymore but to have a hand written letter has to be better than cards by a mile. Congrats!!!

That is amazing!!! I wrote to Ryan Tannehill when he was still in college and he sent me my stuff back autographed.... Kinda sucks when I think about it though; I sent to a handful of rookies last november and only got Tannehill back... definitely not complaining though!
Very cool of Mr. Broyles! Class act.
