KD in CA Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Chuck Knoblauch forgot how to throw the ball to first base. Mackey Sasser forgot how to throw the ball back to the pitcher. Ruined his career, and he was a good catcher.
Bullpen Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Tony Gwynn arguably the best hitter of a generation and never got a world series title and passed away far too soon.
Canadian Bills Fan Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Great topic.   Griffey Jr for sure but would also add Carey Price    CBF
Rico Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Len Bias. !@#$ the Celtics and all, but he would've been tremendous in the NBA.

Captain Murica Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Â I thought when he made his transition from pitching to the OF and had that full year with 25 home runs and batted around .260 he would go on to have a solid career.
BillsPride12 Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Len Bias. !@#$ the Celtics and all, but he would've been tremendous in the NBA. That one's a good call Bias-Michael Jordan might've been the Magic-Bird rivalry of the 90s. Would have been really interesting to see how basketball history would've been rewritten with Len Bias around
Doc Brown Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Why would you feel bad for Tim Duncan? He has 5 rings and will be a first ballot Hall of Famer Good point. I think I confused "feel bad for" for underrated. Todd Heap is the first person that comes to mind as far as "feeling bad for" goes.

Another Fan Posted June 14, 2017 Author Posted June 14, 2017 Craig Ehlo. He didn't have a bad career at all but all people remember him for is getting abused by MJ
Steve O Posted June 15, 2017 Posted June 15, 2017 (edited) Mark Fidrych. Rookie of the year and led the both leagues in ERA in 1976. Got injured high-fiving some outfielder, was never the same. Died working on his truck when a coat or shirt go tangled up. Something like that anyways. Edited June 15, 2017 by Steve O
Buffalo Barbarian Posted June 15, 2017 Posted June 15, 2017 Yeah, Floyd mayweather after get Knocked by Connor McGregor!

Jay_Fixit Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 I don't feel bad for any professional athlete. So no.
Royale with Cheese Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Yeah, Floyd mayweather after get Knocked by Connor McGregor! I feel bad for you thinking this.
