Default MAYS - I love the ball player - not the person he has become

Quick story on Mays ... got him to signed a few dozen baseballs for me 2 years back ... he (and his bitch of a assistant Renee) told me the baseballs were $250.00 and $25 for HOF 1979) ... I decided to get him to signed "Willie Howard Mays" and he then refused to sign any baseball for under $300 ... I ended up buying (30) baseballs at $300 with only (10) Willie Howard Mays and (5) HOF ... the rest were regular Willie Mays and yet I still was charged $300 plus S&H and the baseballs so it was a tough pill to swallow ... but when I got the baseballs back, he signed them all in black sharpie ... totally screwed up his signatures and wrote on the side panels

Such a shame that the greatest living player is also the toughest person to deal with
