The lack of this attribute in modern people creates a separate athlete class in our society and that kinda sucks.

Shout out to the scouts who discovered these talents in the remote corners of the country. It wasn't like now when kids with talent are actively marketed to big league teams, scouts had to go out and find them. Could be a good video subject.

The history of scouting is so understudied and it's a fascinating topic. Did you ever read about how Kenny Gonzalez signed Bo Jackson? Scouts can matter a big difference. thelab.bleacherreport.com/why-bo-chose-baseball/

The only thing I don't like about this short is the length of its shortness. I would like it's shortness to be longer. You understand what I'm saying?

Is this a tease for a longer video about rural Americans contributions to baseball? If so, I'm all aboard that train.

[@thebaseballprofessor]

Expect that video at some point in the not-too-distant future!
