I don't know why, but the spent potential of those guys reminds me of a friend of mine in HS.
I'm not sure if he actually graduated, because he was a stoner. He came to class at times. Once with a straw hat and a box of Nilla wafers at 12:30. But he loved baseball. He had a Rickey Henderson rookie card. Topps or whichever, I forget, but he had it. Mint. Straight up mint. This was back when baseball cards mattered, probably during their last Indian Summer, sometime around late-80s early-90s.
One night he was messing around with darts and accidentally dropped a dart straight through the middle of his Rickey Henderson rookie card.
