You may not agree with that first statement and I can see why but his reasoning behind that statement did have some merit.

I don't know if he is right but not reading it is a cop out and wreaks of not being willing to listen to anyone else's ideas simply because you know everything.

My eyesight was not good enough to pick up pitches and I was left out in the cold once pitchers figured out that I couldn't see. FB? I was a champ... curve, slider or change up? I stunk it up and never learned how to pick them up.
