Will read this. Here is a really strange thread from the college football subreddit. An autograph dealer's anonymous AMA. Unsettling. -- Neat so far. But: It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if Delahanty couldn't spell his own name. He was insane, drunk and eventually jumped into Niagara Falls. -- Well, that was strange. Didn't realize the whole industry was full of shit.Both companies endorsed a letter signed by turn-of-the-century baseball player Ed Delahanty. Neither appeared to notice that he misspelled his own name as "Delehanty."
