One guy that disappoints me that doesn't seem to sign that many cards is Greg Maddux. I'd love an autographed card of his but I refuse to pay a pretty high price for his crabby signature. I find the whole squiggle thing to be an insult to the fans. It's a pet peeve of mine. Can you tell? Two of my all-time favorites, Ron Santo and Harmon Killebrew always signed great. I'm sure there are many others. Ken Griffey Jr. must have a lot of time constraints but he has a beautiful autograph.
