[edit]The Billy Cox link is to the Jimi Hendrix band member and not Billy Cox the Dodger. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.60.203.84 (talk) 03:00, August 30, 2007 (UTC)
small rewrite
[edit]The article as it stood read very much as if it was written by Mr Kahn himself, or possibly an agent of same. Which is a shame, because both Mr Kahn and that hypothetical person write much better than I do. I've edited it to make it read more like a Wikipedia article and less like a publisher's puff piece, and removed a lot of the gushing praise and suchlike. I'd be grateful if someone could edit it again to restore some of the former prettiness (and bulk up the factual content), but we should be keen to ensure it doesn't become a hagiography ... fuddlemark (befuddle me!) 01:53, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
Kahn was obviously a very good writer on baseball, but he the habit of injecting little pro-Democrat political digs into material where it didn't belong. To be fair, though, that is a peril of success: People who make money as actors or athletes tend to believe they have universal wisdom and can wax profound on any topic. Kahn had a few years of undergrad college and was entitled to his opinions, but he could have and should have kept them out of his sports scribbling. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ~2026-76449-8 (talk) 22:54, 3 February 2026 (UTC)
