You crucified me for simply bringing up the notion that he could have a better chance at a baseball career than football.
Not true. I said it was stupid that you thought he would just make it to the show. You said he would make it to the show based on the arm he displayed in 6.2 innings of college baseball.
I understand what you are thinking. However, he has shown significantly more with his football talent that would lead one to believe he could make it in the NFL.

That's where it got lost in translation.
Maybe you read it as me saying he would just pick up a baseball and miraculously sign a long term contract with a MLB team.
I think it's pretty implied that he would have to put a lot of work in to make his way through the minors, but the talent he had as a pitcher...you get that into a minor league system where they work with you year-round, yeah, I think he would eventually make it to the majors.
Going back to the crux of my argument, I certainly think there is a lesser risk for a similar reward in the MLB as opposed to the NFL.
