It's possible that he'll be the only person EVER to be drafted Twice(each) in two major professional sports.. Although, to be honest, I'm not 100% sure that no one else has done that too. Mostly because I'm not that familiar with NBA and NHL draft histories..

I did not know the story of Bo being drafted by NYY! Learn something new everyday. My brother was drafted by the Yanks in 2000, but it was much farther down - and he never signed (it was during the days of the Draft and Follow). Thanks for sharing that about Bo.....

Thank you, sir. The Brett is currently the only piece I have ever had to destroy because it didn't hold up. I spent a couple of years planning it, hoping I could find a way in science to help preserve the pine tar. Unfortunately, it was too viscous, and within 2 weeks.....the thicker sections of tar had merged with the other areas. I used sample sections to try an acrylic seal, but the tar moved under it; I tried heat, but the tar thinned out faster instead of drying; after consulting with several "experts" on tar online - I gave up and decided to just stick with the photos I had taken.
