He wanted to be a Baseball player but he was terrible at hitting the ball with the bat. Also he wanted to be popular around girls but he didn't atrracted them since he couldn't dance very well. (I guess dancing was the hottest thing back then) and that's about all I know :)

I hope I help a little.
