Saw this thread and thought I'd repost from another:
Hey Rob.
I sort of like that idea at first blush.
These baseball GMs are business people and no doubt pride themselves on competency. That's why your idea appeals to me. With any business proposal, you'd better have done your damn homework. Know the lay of the land. And if there's a learning curve, well, you get your beet-red face slapped. Hard. That's the way real business works. Make a ridiculous proposal to the CEO of any company and see how long before your next visit.
From that perspective, I say, " Hey, good idea." You don't know how the AI (that other GM) thinks? Get your face slapped a few times and I bet you learn!"
Then, you become an
experienced GM.
