Sergio,

> Your posts contains utter nonsense and deserves no recognition on this board, but we will not allow your baseless assertions to begin a belief that we delete posts that disagree with the content presented on this website. Since you apparently don't read this board, including the positive and negative opinions and including posts related to rotational and linear mechanics, let us inform you of something, posts are not deleted because they express views different from Jack's views and they never have been. Obviously, you won't recall, but when this board originally opened, very few players and coaches had heard of rotational mechanics and nearly everyone disagreed with the mechanics presented here. Jack maintained a positive and instructive outlook and slowly began changing the opinions of others, abet with the teaching of many, many other individuals posting on this and other boards.

You simply used your unsubstantiated post as a general gripe session and as an opportunity to distract the boards attention away from discussing the mechanics of the baseball and softball swing.

I love to observe or even participate in a discussion of the mechanics that Jack is teaching, and how they differ from conventional wisdom. All of us have a right to our opinions. This discussion educates all of us who participate, and enhances our own knowledge base. When someone determines that their disagreement with Jack is a reason to ridicule or sarcastically deride the other participants on the site, then the value deteriorates for all of us. At this point it is Jack's right and obligation to eliminate their post. Sergio, where does your opinion differ from Jack's? How do you describe the ideal swing?
