The fact that you WANT this guy to become a trivia question doesn't speak very well of your ability to connect with fellow human beings going through rough times while trying to live their dreams.

He may get more out that then you would think.

and you know this how?

seriously, rooting for a guy to fail is just bad form, tank. even from you.

unless, of course, you found out that he's an immigrant jew democrat homosexual that wants to marry his partner, then i'd understand how you would root for his failure to achieve his dream.

They only guy who has any notoriety from never getting an AB in the Bigs is the other guy mentioned in the Tribune story - Moonlight Graham. And he had to wait until after he was dead to be famous. All Greenberg can hope to be if he never makes the Bigs is a footnote in a Cubs trivia book. I.E. - "Who remembers that guy that got hit in the head by the first pitch he ever saw?" "Yeah, I do, what was his name again?" Boy, I want to be that guy... :rolleyes:

Yes he can write books and parlay it until some fun post career thing.

Seriously, how many books could you write about one plate appearance?

You'd be surprised.

Travis Roy played only 6 seconds (maybe 8) of NCAA hockey before he fell into the boards and was paralyzed, and there are a few books and a movie in the works.
