I have been collecting autographs through the mail since the late 1990's. I have recently gone through what I have to identify the signer. Of the about 2000 autographs that I have, I'm down to 2 that I can't identify. These are two separate autographs. The bottom one is from a 3X5 index card. Any help would be appreciated.

Believe the photograph is Doug Mientkiewicz.

I agree with jasongerman9.  a similar looking auto can be found here:

Not surprisingly hard to decipher - there's the possibility that even he doesn't know the order of the letters in his signature....

The Twins photo looks like a Doug Mientkiewicz autograph.

Any clues to the index card autograph? Baseball, football, basketball? A New Orleans team?

For the index card, do you collect a specific team, sport, etc, that might help narrow it down?  Looks like the first name starts with S and the last name R (though B is also a possibility).

I collected various players with a New Orleans connection. Wen to high school in the area, played at Tulane or the University of New Orleans. I really have no idea. I started marking the back of the index cards once I realized I could not identify the first couple of ones. 

Last name on the second one could be something like "Baylor"

Skip Bayless, from ESPN, maybe?
