It has been a tradition for players either to walk or ride on kids' bicycles to and from practice, and McCarthy encourages the practice. However, in the last decade, more and more starters and key players have begun jumping into vans driven by St. Norbert personnel after each practice for rides from the field to the facility, making them inaccessible to fans.

If 15 turned into 300, then i'd understand him not coming over. But that was NOT the case.
As it is, the ONLY way to get his sig now is to pay a rediculous amount of money to get it.
If he signed more for FREE, the value of his sig would go down and less people would be forging it. They forge it because they can make money on it.
Fact is, he makes more money signing his name then a person working their ass off 40 or more hours a week.
That sucks for the people like me that want his autograph for themselves, not to make a buck.
The average person can't afford to dish out $300 or more to get an autograph.

Some players I think it's necessary to be driven to and from. Let's not forget to cross over t hey need to cross a street that is VERY busy, Oneida Street. To have a huge mass of fans following them it would slow traffic down big time. This could be handled of course, but it's just easier to have them driven over there instead of hiring more personnel to ensure safety.
