Also another Albanian was invited to the Jets rookie minicamp on a tryout basis. Betim Bujari, a center from UConn.

The jerseys clearly say Albania so definitely not Albany and I don't see why Scotland either. These are most likely Korcare in Massachusetts.

And damn, I wish my dad had me play baseball as a child instead of soccer. I always had great hand eye coordination when we would play baseball or stickball in gym class. Imagine if I actually trained in it from childhood. Prob would have been a GOAT 2nd basemen.

*Sigh* :lamtumire: To my potential.

It's better to skip 2nd base and go straight to 3rd.
