Darrell's never been a good signer to begin with, from what I've heard. I don't even think he did the Class of 2008 autograph signing at the football hall of fame. Some of the newer players just feel above doing the signings, even for the hall. It's possible he had previous engagements, I know Deion Sanders didn't do his signing because he was with a group of underprivileged kids. Darrell does charity work, from what I've seen.
Tweeting against a player because he didn't sign, especially considering he does official paid signings, will only further frustrate a typically poor signer. Not trying to get on your case, it was an honest mistake. We all make them but must learn that, for this hobby to survive with good signers, we can't do things that will alienate an athlete or actors or musician from wanting to sign in the future.
