MLB legend trashes Cam Newton

I'm a huge Yankees fan, and Goose's comments have been ridiculed over here in NYC.  CAshman and Girard already sat him down and told him this negative press won't be tolerated in Spring Training.  He's basically calling out Jose Bautista and Bryce Harper calling them showboats and that they are breaking the "unwritten rules" of baseball.  That they should act more professional.  Again he was asked about it and this time brought up Cam.  I have a feeling the Yankees are going to ask him to leave after they just warned him, and nobody, and i mean nobody supports the comments he's making.  The guy played with Reggie Jackson and never said anything, but now its a problem?  Trust me nobody on the Yankees or Yankee fans i know even take what he's saying seriously, he's looking for attention.  Even the local papers are trashing him.

Yep, apparently his first rant wasn't enough to show he's wanting all of these newfangled kids, their highfalootin' ideas about stats, and the pussification of baseball to go away and would have never happened in the late 70s and early 80s when men where men and Luis Tiant, Reggie Jackson, and Fernando Valenzuela were all figments of our imaginations.

    • yeah, I can get a little of that.  But that's not what he is posting in his argument just now though.   He said people wouldn't even concede to the literal ability to do it when pressed on the literal ability.  I have never seen that.  He maintains it exists somewhere.  I mean, using anomaly games to make arguments about players just isn't the way.   There wasn't a defender within 10 yards of our guys on 2 of those 3 throws Sunday.  No one within 5 on the 3rd.   That's not Bryce Young answering questions about his play downfield..  That's Bryce Young taking advantage of coverage busts by a bad D.  Which hey, that's part of the game too.  Recognition and seeing the field.   It can't totally be dismissed.   That's still good play.  You want your QBs to make those plays.  But it's not getting into the long standing critique of BY IMO.   
    • Deserved, I wouldn’t use that word. Asked for? For sure. Am I upset over it? No.  People forget that AT was throwing his helmet in frustration last season over his QB’s ineptitude. The same QB was pretty inept to start this year, no guarantee AT would have helped him in those games any more than he did last year.  Just sayin.  And Dan doing him a solid probably did not go unnoticed by players around the league. I think it increases his rep with potential FAs. It sure can’t hurt it. 
    • You think that was the fault of the guy that was lighting it up or maybe the bums around him? Funnily enough, those bums are still being bums in his absence. Who would have thought!
