What he said.
Iddeally, we need guys in SF in their mid-20s to stick around on teams till their early to mid-40s, or as long as they are physically able. To early generally lacks maturity and tend to wash out. Too late, and the physical toll is already taken and the damage is done.
And LJ19, you need to self-motivate and do your own research. It isn't that hard to find.
