Too bad that "damn close" doesn't count.

IF you allow the definition of "damn close" to include "not close at all" then I could have joined Aaron in his group which currently numbers one member.

And I would argue that Stan Musial is "damn closer" than Albert.

Yep... IF

I would have joined Mr. Aaron on that list of one, making us a great duo... IF
