As we've mentioned in these parts before, adult autograph seekers are the worst. So when an aggressive Herbie Hancock collector gets shut down, it reestablishes my hope that justice does exist. And this explains why Rickie Fowler is my new favorite golfer.

In short, if you plan on lobbing a false autograph accusation his way, Rickie Fowler will put you in your place.
