1. This is one way of thinking I hate and roll my eyes every time I hear it. The amount of time someone works in an organization shouldn't ensure a championship. Do the teams with the oldest players make it to the championship or the best team?

2. Why can't someone work, as long as they are capable, until they decide to give it up? Now, I will say that good old Jack was mailing it in the last couple of years.
