Trained for This but not for That

I don’t focus all that well in the morning when the hour hand is still close to the six.  So, it took me awhile to process the caption in yesterday’s Tribune.  For a couple of seconds I thought it said the woman shown in the picture was the Blackhawks’ general manager.  No, she’s the general manager of the new practice facility being built near the United Center.  My bad.

Then on the back page was this story about the people in charge of nutrition for the Cubs and White Sox.  I kept reading but couldn’t find anything about why both jobs happened to go to women.  What a coincidence.  I mean, aren’t men trained in nutrition?  I guess that’s like asking if women are trained to coach male athletes.
