Best pen for autographs on a football?

So as I've stated in the Panthers forum, I'm going to the AZ game on 9/11. I have a ball in a case right now that has John Fox, Jake, Peppers, Buckner, Jenkins, Rucker, and Minters sigs on it from when they played in SF years ago. The sigs were all done in black sharpie and some look just a little faded now on the ball. So my question to you guys is two part I guess, First off, should I buy a new football to get signed instead of bringing the old one, and what kind of pen should I use? I was looking at a Uni medium point silver paint pen, thought that might stand the test of time a little better than the sharpie did.

Jasonluckydog I'm looking at you, I know you got a boat load of autographs.

The silver paint pen would probably be your best bet. Is it a white panel football? If that's the case, a black paint pen would be the best.

Also, the fading from the other football my have to do with the case itself. If it's not a case that protects from UV lighting, that may have caused the signatures to fade...

I got the other one in a regular display case, so maybe that is what's wrong. You can still see them, but I fear that in a few years they'll be gone. And the football is a regular NFL authentic football. I think i'm gonna go the paint pen route, it'll be tough for that silver to fade. Hopefully it doesn't chip off.

      Where do you fall on the Bryce Young spectrum?

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      I personally think Bryce is going to be an extremely good Quarterback for a long time. If you look at modern QB development, it just takes a while. The extreme athletes can get by early, but if you look at the trajectories of guys the last 10 years, were seeing a lot of slow-cooking. Jared Goff, Geno Smith, Baker, Sam Darnold, Trevor Lawrence. The list is long.  The guys that were truly special from Day 1 is an extremely short list. The list of things that college quarterbacks are responsible for gets shorter by the day with the transfer portal, and the college offenses. The list of things that NFL Quarterbacks are responsible for seems to get longer and longer each season.  I saw an interview the other day in which a rookie quarterback and center were calling plays for the offense.  I can't remember the team or the Quarterback, but I definitely remember the clip. It takes time, even for the smartest and most gifted, and the reality is, we have no idea how good or bad the coaching may be until we hear things we aren't supposed to hear anyway.  Bryce isn't perfect, but I saw in another thread, his biggest struggle is risk/reward. That is something I only expect him to improve upon. His adjustments, ability to read a defense, and execution have been extremely good considering our rosters in his tenure here. Our offensive personnel and coaching were both so poor his rookie year that I'm not sure it's fair to properly evaluate that at all. Since that time, all we've seen from him is growth and progress.

      Defense ranked 10th

      Not really.  The run defense has been solid except for the opening game and New England.  We shut Arizona's run game down, but early turnovers hurt.  And of course, we shut out Atlanta.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By CRA · Posted

      True, Bryce having a weaker arm wouldn’t be a big deal if it was paired with… Great accuracy, ball placement, etc. But it’s not.  Bryce has consistently done 2 things all 3 seasons.  One of the lowest completion % in the NFL each year,  one of the highest bad throws % in the NFL.    Then you can get into his unwillingness to stress a D and how that has allowed safeties and DBs  cheat coverage making the small ball so many QBs enjoy a tougher task.
