Perspective and reality being a nasty thing and me knowin all along that i might only ever be able to sneak a Dgrade win and maybe 'be in the mix' in C grade i started to wonder how far 'up' B-grade, then A-grade and the pantheon of bein a PRO is?????
My cuzz is a decent A-grader despite age and (lack of) training catching up with him, and i realise how far ahead he is to me (OK. he grew up cycling and speedskating and went to 3 winter olympics and was oz no.1 before retiring and handing the mantle to steve bradbury) so can anyone (firsthand knowledge would be sensational!) let us/me know what is 'THE' difference between the grades AND making the jump to 'the show' as it was called in baseball. my only reference. i made it to double-A grade in US 'farm' minors and the majors just seemed so close yet SO far away. seems like a world away now...
