If you can make it, but that's the point. I've worked my whole life at baseball, and although I am playing in college, I'm at a division III school and not really expecting to go much further. No matter how hard you work, you have to be one of a few body builds to make it even to a decent college program. Look at ALL of the small guys, and they all had connections somewhere to get them in the door. Brian Roberts had his dad, and then he got cut from his college team when his dad left. Steroid accusations aside, I don't think anyone argues he's good enough to be there. While baseball's definitely more forgiving than other sports (try making it as a 150 pound football player or a 5'5" basketball player), it's really hard to make it as a pro sports player. Yet despite playing baseball for 13 years and poker for 3, I'm showing a profit at poker. If you work on your game it is definitely possible to make money in poker. It is much harder to make money playing baseball, the only difference is if you do make it, you're a lot better off than most poker players who make money. The other major thing is schedule. If you can profit from online poker, you can basically set your own schedule to play. Name another job where you can do that? But if it were easy, everyone would do it, and that applies to poker and baseball. Anyway, I'm kinda rambling now, so I'll stop.
