Re: How efficient are pro sports at producing superstars?
I don't know how many Jordan's, Kobe's, Ruth's miss the mark because of bad luck/timing. I bet a lot of good/ maybe even HOF QB's are givin a year or less and forgotten. Baseball top prospects are often garbage. For every Ryan Howard/ Verlander there are dozens of Beltre's, Travis Lee's, Juan Encarnacion's, Brian Taylor's, and Ben Sheets's. And many that never get that far.
