So How Wonderful and Terrific is Mr. Monds?
Well, we thing the world of him. A stand up character from the start, looking adversity in the eye and moving forward even when things are not going his way and always smiling. These are the ways that his friends describe him. Wonderful comes from a family of athletes and he did follow in the footsteps of his father for some time and then took on his own career. Wonderful Monds the Second was a professional football player and his son the Wonderful most of us know did play with the pigskin, but his real love was baseball.
Everybody wants to hear the stories of his baseball days, but those who are close to him want to know how the family is. After all, being the first boy after eleven sisters were born, there is a lot of family to keep up with. Wonderful Terrific Monds III has a family of his own, his son plays in the local football team and his bother remains active in the local athletics community as well. Many people become skeptical of Wonderful’s demeanor as he got shot down from the big leagues, but his friends and those who played with him, have never had a cross word to say about this stand-up family man.
Living back in Fort Pierce Florida, he is still very active. However, now he is active with his own cleaning business, wife and son. There is something to be said about a person who has been through so many struggles in their life and still keeps his head held high and love to care for the ones closest to him, his family. It seems that god had a plan for Wonderful Terrific Monds, but that plan included the simple life and very large loving family, not the bright lights of the sports stadiums.
Wonderful Terrific Monds has been given one of the most unique names of all time. If he were not also a great athlete you would most likely have never heard of him. You will read more on the Internet about his name than anything else.
Do You Remember Wonderful Terrific Monds?
It will only be the biggest of baseball fans, the ones who even kept their eyes on the minor leagues, to remember the Monds. This was a baseball story only for those who really loved the game and it’s players. The Monds never got his debut in the major leagues and to this day it is still a mystery why not. He was able to carry a .281 batting average over his minor league career and ended his days in the minors with more hits that he had games played. These are both amazing records for any player and especially one that never got his shot in the major leagues!
Wonderful Terrific Monds, as his mother named him, was born in the Fort Pierce Florida area on January 11th 1973. Wonderful’s father played professional football, so it seems that athletics simply ran in the genes of his family. His father played professional football for the 49ers and his brother Mario, played pro ball for the Bengals and the Dolphins. His grandfather is said to be the main reason for his truly unique name. The grandfather was so glad to see a boy after so many granddaughters, he said “wonderful, just terrific” and apparently the name stuck.
When Wonderful was first drafted in 1993, the Atlanta Braves had big plans for him and he was sent over to the Idaho Falls minor league team to prove himself. This young athlete had charisma to spare and strong bat and by any bystanders judgment would soon be following the family tradition of playing professional sports. However, due to some reoccurring fielding errors in the outfield he never did get sent up to the big leagues. He would continue playing in the minors until 1999, he had then played for may different minor league teams and never gained the interest of the scouts to move on.
He still to this day remains as a fan favorite and his face has made it to more than one baseball card including a special set of “Golden Prospects” released by Fleer in 1995. Retiring at the tender age of 26 it looks like he will never see the big leagues, but will still be remembered in the minds of many of his biggest fans!
