Jon's other site:
Screen Jam
TV and more ...
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
The inspiration for my wistful walk on the James Loney - Rookie of the Year limb arose from the All-Baseball.com predictions, which are running all week on the site's home page. More to come Friday.
I've noticed that I don't have one consensus pick among the individuals. Fun for me.
Let me know in the comments if you are checking out the home page on your own. We stay up late at night hoping to addict you - and plan to add more content there to fulfill those crazy dreams.
I'd also like to take this opportunity to extend my welcome to All-Baseball's newest member, Alex Ciepley, formerly the (dare-we-say-it: groundbreaking) author of Ball Talk. Ciepley will publish his valuable insights via The Cub Reporter. Always great to make a key acquisition just before Opening Day. Welcome, Alex!
