You said he would make it to the show based on the arm he displayed in 6.2 innings of college baseball.


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.

If you are talking about bodily harm, I definitely agree with you here.

Let's just all agree that we are pulling for him to succeed. Even if it's not in professional sports. It is a miracle that he is alive and walking and able to run. God has already blessed him. I am sure that he wants to give football his best shot.
