We then talk about Tom Brady's personal trainer Alex Guerrero. He featured in Brady's "Man in the Arena" series on ESPN+. We discuss how Guerrero has kept Brady completely healthy through his incredible career. Yet, with that being said, he is still an outcast in the world of sports.
We dive into our "negative results =high praise" theory where trainers et al. get high praise, but their athletes are injured or careers cut short by injury. We discuss football and baseball's reluctance to try different methods to yield better results.
We then go into the use of technology to assess athletes. The lack of a pinching avatar rears its head when Kevin asks, "who is inputting those markers for pitching?" "Who is deciding what is healthy?"

Episode 37 is a Midnight Madness show starting just before the clock strikes midnight.
We get right in it talking about Little League baseball and the controversial left-handed pitcher who was compared to Chris Sale. We're keeping his name out of this because it has nothing to do with him and everything to do with social media glorifying horrific mechanics and then of course not being able to back it up.
A good rule of thumb for baseball is never to emulate a pitcher who has been injured throwing a baseball. Injuries are not good and certainly, we do not want to teach habits that cause catastrophic injury.

Kevin goes into great detail about a very misinformed and alleged hitting instructor about a Twitter war he had. Kevin had responded to a tweet from a division one college baseball coach that essentially promoted hitting the ball on the ground if you do not know how to hit home runs. That statement was successfully attacked by Mike and Ryan with data for major-league baseball. The link is below. Our "why would you do that" Shows an instructor doing a drill that's supposedly focusing on hand coordination but really is teaching the student to go around the baseball.

We begin today's show discussing JJ Watt's signing with the Arizona football Cardinals. We discussed his playing career and his ever-mounting and cumulative injuries that have really hampered his ability to play football. Kevin and Ryan differ, and whether JJ white is a Hall of Famer or is Kevin said: "flash in the pan.
Mike goes into great detail about how the baseball swing is a series of mathematical equations, geometrical formulas, and applied physics in a way that is truly amazing and completely easy to understand by anyone, even if you're not a baseball fan.
The question of the day asked whether an athlete should pick a sport or play multiple sports. Kevin answers in a way that is a little profound. He begins his answer by saying every decision at the end of the day comes down to money. Money for a scholarship. Money for a professional baseball. And basically, you should follow the money. Kevin as soon as he answered by saying that all sports basically have the same fundamental movements and it is good to play all sports. He also says that some sports are very hard on the body, like football and basketball may need a rest from playing basketball and football all year. He concludes the answer by saying you play sports to have fun. So have fun. If you're good at a sport and want to continue to play all year round because that's what you want to do, then do it and have fun doing it.
We can include the show with our favorite segment, "WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT ?". Our producer Ryan digs up the controversial high-level hearing pattern worldwide, allegedly created by a person whose Twitter handle is a "teacherman1986". Mike and Ryan absolutely destroy this level of Instruction because it absolutely goes against everything about the math of hitting covered in the second segment. We show visuals, and you really need to see him. Kevin adds the two cents that he blocked this guy. Every time he tries to engage with him about actual science and kinesiology, "teacherman" berates him with insults and never sticks to the issues or defends teaching. He can't "PROVE IT LIVE."

Season 2 begins a whole new change in the podcast. I had turned "heel" like Hulk Hogan did when he joined the NWO. That is a joke, of course. But I am calling out the fakers on social media and promoting the doers who are helping people. I have a new cohost, Mike Frerie, a baseball facility owner and AAU Baseball guru. We have been friends for 17 years. We have the same philosophy of hating fakers.
In this episode, we outline the new format, give some history about each of our backgrounds and begin to talk about some of the things that will be doing in the upcoming podcasts. Don't miss this one, and don't miss the rest of the season.
