I wish, oh HOW I WISH, I could learn to throw a knuckleball better than anyone. Of course, I guess that’s the desire of a lot of 30-something men out there.

The Neikro brothers were good knuckleballers. Watch some old video of them. I loved watching Phil warm up or just mess around in the bullpen at Atlanta-Fulton county Stadium. Good times! Bad team though.

I can still throw a devastating knuckleball. Trouble is, it only travels 59 feet.

I can throw a doozy knuckler with a 12 inch softball, but I have tried several grips and can’t do very well with a baseball.
