Brian Kenny is one of those analysts that I respect but often disagree with, though his piece on HOF anti-recency bias is one of my faves. <br /><br />Thanks for posting this review!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10268829182522679026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3084101267740946056.post-40707299319896486652017-01-28T08:16:19.984-06:002017-01-28T08:16:19.984-06:00Good advice.

I finally realized that given my broad taste in reading and my lack of speed I would never get to even a portion of the books I'd like to read. Given that, I changed my ways. Now I check reviews before even starting most books. I've gotten good at choosing but if I make a mistake I have no trouble dropping a book. Don't waste your time. Too many good ones out there.Hackenbushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15507810776309048794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3084101267740946056.post-87211740266253153852017-01-27T15:53:32.112-06:002017-01-27T15:53:32.112-06:00i just finished reading 'lords of the realm...i just finished reading 'lords of the realm' which is about the history of baseball from the owner perspective. highly recommend, and came away as even less of a fan of owners than before!gcrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09882449679093991427noreply@blogger.com
