> > > > Hey dude baseball IS a game for kids. It's the parents who have the fantasy of their kid playing MLB. Nothing wrong with that, I suppose, but what is your point anyway? Are you saying kids should not be allowed to ask questions but it's ok for adults? I see you continually bashing this site, bashing 9 year olds, bashing kids, bashing Readers Digest, bashing Eteamz, bashing Jack's tape and DVD and PRAISING the dude at the other site. Why don't you just get to the point of what your agenda really is???
> > > >
> > > I think you all have been too hard on dbc and I am in full agreement with him. Here's why. In my opinion, I any info (right or wrong) on such an intricate topic given in the written word using scientific responses without proper D&E can be counter productive. D&E= Demonstration and Explanation but you are a teacher so I am sure you knew that? In that respect, I would encourage any one of them to invest in Jack's tapes or any other number of other videos and CD's available today. Then they get the benefit of "visualization" for valuable feedback instead of just some words written on this forum.
> > > I will add one more point: hitting is the hardest thing to do in sports, and for a task so difficult it is best left up to mature individuals (I.E., adults). The kids have Eteamz.com and adults have this site, Epstein and Readers Digest. Don't let them get under your skin, dbc, keep telling it like it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
> > > >
> >
> > I disagree. Jack specializes in the theory of hitting and from what I have heard Readers Digest is a general interest magazine. What could they possibly know about rotational mechanics?

> It is truly amazing that everyone who read my post about the "Readers Digest" comment actually thought I meant "Readers Digest" did somekind of article on hitting? It was an analogy as to the "short" method in which "Matt" not only claimed he learned the rotational swing "overnight" and enough to have his son be immediately successful
> with it AND then a further analogy as to how his son then immediately taught it to other 9 &10 year olds before a game? I also never SAID any where that 9&10 year olds can't learn this rotational swing...what I doubted was that they learned it proficient enough to teach it to other kids and AGAIN- as "Matt Stated" on this site...after he spent ONE night reading post!!!
>
> Uh Jack...have I ever on this site BASHED you, rotational hitting or your tapes? Again- "read my post"- I encourage others to purchase Jack's materials as well as other info about the swing AND I DID IT TO
> make my STILL original point- It HAS to be easier to help any poster if they have any of those videos than the "piece meal" written responses I was responding to.
>
> For those of you who have claimed I don't agree with Jack, rotational hitting, this site or even kids learning this type of swing. YOU ALL NEVER READ ALL MY POST! It is that simple. You also have failed to read most of the post by "Matt" who has been the one boasting, bragging and insulting any one who has spent as much time as Jack and others "trying" to learn the methodologies behind this swing. He claims to have learned it overnight from this site in one visit and then when asked by any other posters to "give us some insight" as to how he did that so easily ...he never- not ever...responded with any answers??
>
> Those of you who have supported some of what I said- or think anyone should take it easy on me...fear not. I have been so misquoted and misjudged by posters who "can't read" and don't comprehend what I wrote that it has never bothered me when they have responded with empty and way off base come backs.

dbc if you interpreted my statements as an intent to brag or boast you are mistaken. I made it clear in all of my posts that I give full & complete credit for my son's sucess to Jack Mankin and this website. I spoke up because you were bashing this site and promoting another, and I think that is WRONG. I have never seen anyone spend so much time as yourself in trying to convince people that kids should not ask questions. All I can say is that Jack is extremely gracious to allow this to have happened, because I am sure that this Epstein guy would not permit someone disrupting his site. If your intent is to get in the last word, you got it as I will have no more to say. But I would be very surprised if the kids stop asking questions just because a surrogate from another site comes along & bashes this site. Again, Jack, me as well as undoubtably many others are very grateful for your work in the field of rotational mechanics.
