1) using profanity or any euphemisms for profanity
2) personally attacking other commenters
3) baiting other commenters
4) arguing for the sake of arguing
5) discussing politics
6) using hyperbole when something less will suffice
7) using sarcasm in a way that can be misinterpreted negatively
8) making the same point over and over again
9) typing "no-hitter" or "perfect game" to describe either in progress
10) being annoyed by the existence of this list
11) commenting under the obvious influence
12) claiming your opinion isn't allowed when it's just being disagreed with
I was only halfway through Aaron Gleeman's doctoral disseration on Rickey Henderson when I realized I would have to link to it. Then, at the end, came the twist - Aaron had chosen Dodger Thoughts as his Link of the Day. So double thanks, Aaron - for the recognition and for the great article.
Since I'm passing out the thankuze on this anniversary celebration, I'd also like to send some to my friends in the baseball blogging world - particularly John Wiebe at John's Dodger Blog, Christian Ruzich at The Cub Reporter, Michael at View From the 700 Level, Alex Belth at Bronx Banter and Gregg Rosenthal at Gregg's Baseball, Etc. Their links, along with links to other great blogs, are in the right-hand column - check them out and say hi to them for me.
And to Robert at Priorities and Frivolities: Goodness gracious! Get well soon.
