Some have been critical of Meyer, joking that his health issues must have already healed if he’s ready to take on a new job.

Dear Twitter, if you think you're being clever saying something like "oh I guess Urban is magically healed" as a commentary to him taking a one day a week analyst job...you're not. You're either trolling or just being stupid. Consider this free life advice.
