Does anyone here have any relatives that played in professional sports?
My great uncle was a baseball player who played in the 70's.

I have a few of his baseball cards, including one from 78 (his last year.)
Inb4 Jeffy tells everybody how Tom Henke is his cousin.
Danny Gallivan (HNIC announcer) was either my dad's or my uncle's godfather.
As for actually playing at a high level, my cousin plays Junior B hockey. That's about it I think.

That's...it.
As far as relatives, Henke is all I got.
People that I know?
Blake DeWitt
Scott Cooper (retired)
Tyler Hansbourough
People I have met before they became professionals, or have been around not at the ballpark?
Roland Williams
Ryan Howard
Jamal Mayers
Jim Edmonds
Stan Musial
Al Hrabosky
Scott Rolen
Jose Oquendo (made friends with his twins)
Ozzie
etc etc etc the list is long.
Roland Williams was earlier this summer, got to know him pretty well, he is a fantastic person, not what I expected at all.
Most of those are from working at Bank of America in Ladue in St. Louis...and I got to know them all pretty well, it was a great time!
UFC is not pro sports
Although, it is better than WW whatever
My dads uncle played for the Reds minor league system. I know Jeff Francoeur.
I also know a handful of OHL players, but so does every other 18 year old in Canada.
Uh, you do it.Quote:

I didn't say it was easy, just that it shouldn't be called a sport. ;)Quote:
