I was in my early 20s when LeBron got drafted.

I was in my early 20s when LeBron got drafted. I remember when that happened I said, “I guess I’m not going to be an NBA player. I mean people younger than me are getting drafted.”

I was never that good at basketball.

From then until about yesterday I would argue with a straight face that if I practiced for a year straight I could be a knuckleball pitcher in the majors.

Time marches on and all my sports delusions fade away.

Maybe I’ll start dreaming about owning a minor league baseball team.
