Who's the Yeti-bait at lower right?

That's some kind of Steve Jobs' turtleneck tan line he's got going on there.

Just happened upon this odd blog in my internet travels (which led me to finding Will Carroll's Flickr page and this pic of the man in a Mighty Power T—not pictured here: Jenn Sterger).

Curiosity piqued, I clicked over to the about page...

We shouldn't have to explain sabermetrics to you. The fact that you're reading Praiseball Bospectus (and reading our about page, no less) suggests that you're the type of person already familiar with sabermetrics, you nerd. But this blog isn't about sabermetrics; there's an endless supply of other sites about that. This blog is instead about SABR. Not SABR, the organization, but SABR, the people.

Practitioners of sabermetrics are most commonly called sabermetricians. The writers and zombie-slave commenter army from The Book Blog are starting to use saberist as of this writing [shudder]. But at PB, we prefer the style of "Cubbie-Tim" from Bleed Cubbie Blue as seen in his mostly-incoherent questions in a wonderful back-and-forth with that man of mystery, Tom Tango.

The petty feuds, terrible analysis, back-biting, and overall super dorkiness of everyone involved makes the world of SABR hilarious and sad at the same time. As long as you like baseball stats, of course. And you're still a giant nerd.

Mostly-incoherent:

6. As the SABR stat evolves almost annual (URZ for example), why do some SABR continue to use the old manner while some use the newer one, which results in SABRs having different results to the same question (so to speak, could not think of a better way to phrase this)

(N.B.: Cubbie-Tim, is also the man behind this.)

His constant need to make sure everyone knows he's super best friends with the Sterg is amusing.  Like the kid in high school who grew up next door to the hot chick.

You know, there I was, minding my own business when somebody directed me over to Al's happy playground again, to read his tales of obnoxious Korean Churchgoers invading the bleachers.

Well, for some reason I check BCB again tonight and found this lovely thought in his preview for tonight's game:

This is the last game of the second-longest homestand of the year; the Cubs will play 16 of their final 22 games on the road (and that would be a tough schedule for a good team; perhaps we should be grateful that these games don't mean anything),

For fuck's sake.

[Saul Goodman]

Barney looks REAL good in the field.
Smooth hands and good footwork, natural instincts. Looks like he can hit a little, too. He'll be a fine backup middle infielder next year.

Al's sporting a boner for Theriot 2 already.  I've been to two games (98 more to go before you can take the following seriously) and both times Barney looked like the worst defender on the field.  Screw Al and screw the Cubs' endless parade of middle infield midgets.
