I used some of the greatest people in history to make the point that making blanket assumptions based upon people's age isn't necessarily reliable.
Do you disagree?

My gosh. Really? So you think that because that handful of extra-ordinary people over a several hundred year period..... in which circumstance played a huge role.... are to be compared to a young, inexperienced sports journalist who produces nothing but her opinion? What of any tangible act or service or product has she created? What part of her life makes her an authority on the NFL?
Yes, of course age and experience matter. But it also helps if one has in depth background of something before they start drawing rather broad based conclusions.
Jeez. Remember the ruckus.... polarized..... over hiring Sean McVay because of his age? Of course he played football since he's about 9 years old. Was the Georgia High School player of the year. Started a football coaching career in his early 20's. Was tutored by the highest level coaches. And this girl? Exactly what is her pedigree?
I get it that it is her job. But that doesn't mean that we have to be suckers and believe that she actually knows something.
