Most Anticipated Athletes Debut

[CASPERWAIT$]

With Kris Bryant making his pro debut today, I was thinking about other athletes that's first game was so heralded.

Strasberg's was huge.

Lebrons was a week long ESPN circle jerk.

 

[PuckOff]

Crosby for sure. McDavid is next..... big time.

 

[Matty]

Alexandre Daigle

Liz Masakayan

Michael Jordan's first baseball game after retiring from basketball

Kendall jenner's porn video will top all

 

[CASPERWAIT$]

Kendall jenner's porn video will top all

She has no tits.

Her video will be of an uppity entitled bitch in bed with bad camera lighting.

It will be like Paris Hilton's which sucked.

Johnny Football - another ESPN weeklong circiejerk.

RG III

Mark Prior, Kerry Wood, and Corey Patterson.

The Cubs LOVE to hype their prospects.

 

[Archie]

Bryce Harper?

Puig

I think alot of Cuban defections and Japanese early pitchers like NOMO were pretty highly anticipated...

Bo Jackson and Deion Sanders in baseball?

I don't know how anticipated it was, but Mario Lemiuex had an awesome Debut

griffey jr was big for me, in my baseball prime days 10-14 years old

 

[tullamore]

Joe thornton was a big one for me. Some box at my moms still has the newspaper from his draft day, when he signed his contract, and his first game. Thought these would be worth money someday. Will make for a good bonfire.

For me

Andrew mccutchen
Starling Marte
Gerrit cole
Gregory Polanco

Speaking of the Dodgers, Fernandomania was really big from Day 1.

 

[Badnina]

not an athlete but I can say that Nick Saban's first A Day game in here AL was pretty huge. The Capstone has 90k+ for most spring games since the Saban era began 9 years ago
