I recently had a DAMN GOOD! conversation with a pretty young guy 30 yr. old [relative to my age!!] Close to 2 hrs. Why do I think he is destined for a damn good future?
A few points about that: 1] He knew about Mel Siff and his books. To me, that was very impressive.

Mel Siff is arguably, THE finest sports scientists in the last 100 yrs.
2] I was talking about a book explaining body resistance exercise and he quickly cited it ["Overcoming Gravity"]. DAMN!! He knows Mel and this book!!
3] He ain't on twitter all that much. I tried to contact him via twitter. It took him over 3 wks to respond. Why? Well, because he does not hang on twitter much. To which I say .....GOOD!
4] When I called him [and I called him 2 times and we talked twice], HE ACTUALLY PICKED UP THE PHONE!!
I have called numerous guys about his age ---and they simply do not respond. And my typical first response is: FUCK YOU GUYS. If you do not have the decency to pick up a goddamn phone then you are an idiot.
But, this young guy DID pick up the phone. And it led to him saying along the lines of: This was one of THE best conversations I've had with a hitting instructor.
Bottom line [maybe]: If I call you up, you might want to answer the damn phone. I JUST MIGHT have some interesting/relevant shit to say!!!
