Wow,who died and made them the be all to end all on evaluating talent?What a great job to never quit being a kid being a sports fanatic groupie and continuing to do so all of your life.These guys can't coach and they probably don't handicap well or bet at all.Same goes for all the horse racing authorities like Charlsea Cantey?or whatever her name is.She knows every bloodline and is a true expert on thoroughbreds but she couldn't pick a winner if she tried.I don't think I ever heard the woman pick a winner but she knows the horse she picks to win better than her own kids.Then you have these golf coaches that never even came close to being on the PGA tour and the Tiger Woods's of the world go on every direction they give them.If the guy knows so much about golf,you think he would have eeked out some measely 50th place winning check at a PGA tournament 30 years ago.Another one is that Sklansky guy that writes the well respected Poker bibles.The guy never does squat in the way of going anywhere in major tournaments.
I can just picture when you are 12 years old going to your guidance councilor in school and telling those nut case councilors who can't find a productive job your choice of possible vocations in adult life that you want to become an authority on football draft picks,race horses,giving poker advice,baseball predictions and giving golfers tips to make a huge income.At the school I came from it was either you were going to barely finish high school and work in a mine or construction trades or else you were going to college to get a degree to work in some useless job for the government.
