[QUOTE="Buzzbomb, post: 556002, member: 1134"] Had a professional offer from a tryout camp at 16 y.o. for Baseball. Chose staying in H.S., etc.(although played the sport every year from T-Ball and up). My Grandfather played professionally before WWII, and when he came back in those days, he was considered too old. Summers in Binghamton we played baseball and ocassional street hockey. Coach Hyder offered me a seat at the end of the bench for hoops; Eventually his son Tommy got that spot. I did play H.S. Basketball also, more of a shooter and playmaker naturally, forced to play inside on some of my teams that were short-handed. I led in bloody noses, perfect height for the opponents elbow. I graduated from Ga. State, played there until tearing my knee up. Non-participatory is college baseball. Took the busses downtown when we didn’t have practice or a game as a kid, to watch Jim Luck’s Team. We finally got some old bleachers to sit on, after previously having to stand up behind the plate for nine innings. All before Chandler. Basketball is next, although I spend more time writing our AD’s during the last three regimes, because it kills me to hear more cheering from the opponents. It started getting bad when Charlotte brought in louder fans when Hewitt was having problems. Football is exciting, but even with the road games we can only have 13 or 14 games maximum to attend. Really enjoy reading from you gentlemen. I would have never guessed Milwaukee has Baseball last on his list. [/QUOTE]
