✘ All of his siblings were involved in some sort of sport when they were growing up and James was no exception. While his brothers were obsessed with football and his twin sister loved playing lacrosse, James turned his attention to baseball. He started playing baseball when he was seven and never looked back. In high school, James also turned her attention to football just so he'd have something to do to during baseball's off-season and to help keep him in shape. When he got to college, he tried juggling soccer and basketball on top of his academics but couldn't manage and ended up leaving football behind in favor of football in his sophomore year.

✘ Shortly before he left for the start of his freshman year, James and his high school girlfriend broke up. Shortly before that, he told her that he wanted to stay together, go through a long-distance relationship, but a week later he changed his mind and ended it.

✘ He received a partial scholarship to Tulane University for baseball and jumped at the chance to attend and to get away from his brothers and sisters, who all attended University of Georgia and expected him to enroll there as well.

✘ Despite coming from a large family and his oldest siblings each starting a family, James doesn't really want to have any kids. And only likes babies before they reach that dirty toddler phase where they get sticky.
