I wasn't aware grammar was part of the criteria. The fact is that the article I found is NOT universal praise for Joe Maddon.


It literally doesn't say anything bad about Maddon as a manager. Just that he thinks the Cubs need consistency with the young players (and thats after saying he is awesome with young players). So the statement "he is universally praised as a great manager" is not really challenged by that article.

I didn't make the claim that he isn't universally claimed, just pointed out that the article he linked did not.

I'm also going to guess that the people involved in and around Major League Baseball know more about what makes a manager good or bad than MattInTheCrown.



Does that include Ned Yost, Ricky Renteria, and Hawk Harrelson or are they the only morons "around Major League Baseball"?

Good vs more gooder.

Similar to how a girl can be an 8 or a 9. Both are hot. One is hotter.

My original scan of that sentence didn't register the "an".

I was concerned.
