Hard to believe this pick was based on a 6am workout were Wade was topping out at 86.

I am glad my Topps Rookie Cup Dual Auto of his has Tom Seaver on it to balance off Townsend lack of success

I went to highschool with him. He thought he was God's gift to EVERYTHING even though he was our #3 pitcher. We were all shocked when he got a scholorship to Rice and even more surprised when he did so well. He wasn't that good in highschool.
