Look JLB, we're more on the same page than we think here.
I never once disputed Jacks theories.And, obviously, I don't dispute Epsteins quote.My point though and, obviously, I can only speak for myself, is that it becomes over kill.I just feel that Jack, as much as I respect the man as a person, more than anything,is preoccupied with telling the forum his latest physics discovery and, how it can be applied to baseball. Sure, Epstein can get technical, but to a point. Jack sounds like a physicist, that points out connections to baseball, Epstein sounds like a baseball guy, that points out connections to physics.
I know I probably sound like an old fart sometimes and a baseball romanticist.
I was watching clips on you tube last night of field of dreams, old Mantle footage, Dimaggio, Berra, etc..
And what came to mind immediately and, maybe to better understand where I'm coming from, is that as much as technology has become such a large part of everyones life, it's still baseball.
A game in my opinion, as I've said before, excluding the core elements of fundementals, is not a game that is played in the laboratory.
Take care.
John.
