Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Collins Collins ? Terry Collins â imminent firing didnât have to get ugly  if not downright reprehensible. Really  it shouldnât have been difficult at all.
The difference was the Phillies informed Mackanin of their decision â imagine that â and asked  him  to remain in the organization as an assistant to GM Matt Klentak  an offer the ex-manager said he was happy to accept.
And Mackanin failed to so much as manage the Phillies to a winning record  never mind a World Series. He was on the job for less than three full seasons  or not even half the time  Collins  managed in New York.

So why couldnât the Mets have handled their business in a similarly classy manner  instead of keeping  Collins  in the dark about a decision that was a foregone conclusion for months  and then trashing him with anonymous front-office quotes in his final few days in the big chair.
What  they got mad when  Collins   in response to names of potential successors being leaked to the media  said he had no intention of retiring at the end of the season?
If they had given him the Mackanin treatment before the Metsâ final homestand  and offered him some type of organizational job for a couple of years  Iâm certain  Collins  would have then agreed to say it was time to step down.
After all  heâs 68 and well aware the front office has been critical of his decision-making for years  particularly his handling of pitchers. While the 2017 season was hardly  Collins â fault   his  team crippled by injuries  the Metsâ brass had every right if it felt the time had come for change.

All management had to do was communicate that to  him  at some point and then allow  him  to finish the season. The team was playing out the string anyway  and though Metsâ fans have had their issues over the years with  his  in-game strategy  surely they would have given  Collins  an ovation or two last week at Citi Field.
Even if  Collins  deserves some of the blame for what turned into a cold war of sorts this summer with the front office and ownership  perhaps in part because  he  didnât like being told  he  couldnât talk about injuries  in the end Alderson should have been bigger than that.
And  yes  Iâm aware that Fred and Jeff Wilpon have the final say  but thatâs no excuse for the GM leaving  Collins  hanging.
When I spoke with  Collins  last week   he  said  he  hadnât been told a thing about  his  future. When I asked  him  if  he  had considered going to Alderson to ask about it   he  shook  his  head.
âI shouldnât have to â  he  said.
 He âs right about that.

Answer: Neutral


Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Paula Marantz Cohen ? In a case of literary serendipity  right after I read Beck's piece  I stumbled onto an essay called "The Simplest Course I Ever Taught" in The Chronicle of Higher Education by Paula Marantz Cohen  dean of the Pennoni Honors College and professor of English at Drexel University.
 Cohen  describes  her  embrace of "slow teaching " an approach that designs a college course to "look closely â and by extension  slowly â at one major idea or text over the course of ten weeks."
Though the focus of  Cohen 's essay is a one-credit course  she  developed that "took the slow teaching approach to a new level" â  she  read aloud Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice to her students  and they discussed the plot and characters together â  she  explains that the honors program  she  heads offers a whole set of slow-taught courses. One of them focused on Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species  an indication that science as well as the humanities is involved.
A deliberate change on professors' part from trying "to cram in as much material as possible over the course of a term " Cohen suggests  brings benefits to the students. "I am convinced that key concepts and texts will adhere better to memory and understanding if their presentation is slowed down "  she  says in  her  essay.
Given what I wrote here last year about celebrating intellectual engagement on college campuses  it's no surprise that I'm convinced by  Cohen 's points. I'm not a skeptic about the slow-teaching approach.
Did  Cohen  have any thoughts on whether slow teaching would be as effective in the science as in the humanities?  She  replied  in part:

Answer: Positive


Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Russell Wilson ? Russell Wilson  walks off with a victory. (Christian Petersen / Getty Images)
The Seattle Seahawks’ lightning-fast treatment of quarterback  Russell Wilson  on Thursday night violated the NFL’s concussion protocol  ESPN reports.
 Wilson   who spent a few moments in the sideline tent  did not leave the field and was not cleared by a team doctor and an independent physician  as the rules require. After a third-quarter hit to the chin by Arizona linebacker Karlos Dansby  referee Walt Anderson sent  Wilson  off to be tested. The telecast showed  Wilson  running off the field and sitting down to have the tent erected over  him . However   he  jumped up before medical personnel arrived and was on the field after being replaced by Austin Davis for one play.
 He  was on the field for two plays before the Seahawks punted and  with Arizona’s offense on the field   he  entered the tent for a longer time.  He  returned to the field when the Seahawks got the ball back. The league’s policy requires players to be cleared by a team physician and an independent neurological consultant before returning to practice or play.
