If you walk in, and these are your doctors and you leave you're practicing ageism and it makes me sick!

You lost your license because I stated that brains decline as you age? You might want to take that up with other doctors; I'm not the one that came to those conclusions. How many 18 year olds you know with medical licenses? Is that ageism?

By the way, I love that everyone loves Tim now - MY GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, although I hope he doesn't comment to this post and say "I'm not your guy, buddy" - but I won't forget many here wanted him traded or moved off positions. No one cared about Timmy then, but for me and CWS and maybe a few others! I welcome you all onto the "what does tim want, that's what I want" wagon, but just know you're arriving late and youre not calling the shots.

Enough of the damn ageism; jesus christ, it's science. As you age into your 70's and 80's you have cognitive decline. Take it up with neurologists; it's not ageism to cite that age degrades cognition.

Marcus can't really be upset; he invited this on. Marcus' agent likely gave him a little jingle and let him know that Tony might be coaching for the team with the checkbook out and Marcus quickly said... people evolve, people change LOL

I'm just glad I believe/know managers are worthless, and I know hating your manager might get you to spite-produce haha, so the only real negative effect this moron could have on the team is PR related for the most part. I hate Jerry for doing this because it looked like Rick wanted to cry, but in the grade scheme of things it doesn't matter. Tony can sleep in his office all season for all I care, these guys are gonna go out and light the world on fire regardless.

I'm going to break some news for some here; the majority of white MLB players are conservatives. I'd guess many will vote for Trump. Aubrey Huff was not out of place in his locker room. Some viewed him negatively but in general he was not shunned. Take that for what you will. These are athletes entertaining us; many are not role models.

Thanks for clarifying; the only thing I know less about than graphic design procedures, is probably graphic design itself.

This is honestly really weird; didn't they just say they didn't even interview him? How does this happen? How did they get a guys signature who they didn't even interview? Was this Hahn trolling?

I don't get why they'd be screwing it up. Hinch really is overrated here.

I wrote myself in; no big deal. Similarly to Kanye, I know my calling is to be the leader of the free world.

Did baseball even shift in 2010? I'm getting so old I can't even remember when shifting went all out. Maybe the Sox are banking on Manfred bringing the game back to the stone age with all his ignorant rule views and hopes.

Roache, if you read my stuff about Cash I don't even entirely disagree with pairing analytics with game day observations. My problem with Tony is he basically implied that analytics are for before the game.

"No one has done more for black players, besides maybe Abe Lincoln and Jackie Robinson, than me"

Tony La Russa named Manager
Yeah, I don't think so either. Jerry had all the leverage; "We let you rebuild Rick, now it's my turn!"

"Observational Analytics" Someone please blow my head off. Guy pushing back against in-game analytics already.

I don't think Rick would have a hard time getting a job within about 2 minutes of quitting.
-
Tony La Russa named Manager
This has proven to be nothing and not true, so if this was him being innovative that's not a great piece of evidence.

Jimmy, Listening to this interview with Hahn and your reporting feels spot on. Good calls all around. Rick very clearly detailing that Jerry did this over his head.

So why can't a 34 year old be POTUS but an 87 year old can be? Do you think an 87 year old is sharper cognitively than a 34 year old? Again, I'm asking you because it's absurd. Older people rule positions of power, and many 20-35 somethings can't move up in their careers despite doing the job of those "Executives." So again, I didn't see anyone saying to not be disrespectful when they said Jirschele was too young.

Again for everyone yelling that ageism is out of control here. Why can't 22 year olds get interviews? Isn't that ageism? I don't understand. What is the age cut off? Hilarious that people like Larussa continue to get chances as a retread hire while a bunch of younger unknowns never get a shot but people have the nerve to argue that citing TOny's age is disrespectful and discriminatory.
-
Tony La Russa named Manager
Like what?
-
Tony La Russa named Manager
Question, why does ageism only apply to old people? Why say can the Sox not hire a 16 year old manager? You would consider that absurd, right? Why? Because their brains aren't fully developed... As you age, cognitive decline happens. It's simply a fact. I find the ageism thing hilarious; old people run the world - politics and other positions of power. Meanwhile, young people never get opportunities of power. Are you going to tell me that's not ageism either?
