I once got called for a gig

to play with the Madison Jazz Orchestra, backing Frank Stallone…I think the show was in Rockford.

Sadly, oh so sadly, I didn’t end up doing it.

Also, cheese.

Crazy

“Brew Crew Ball” (really battlekow, I’d assume) got a mention in Adam McCalvy’s article on this topic for breaking the Blake Billings’ deal.

so...

MSM is sometimes nice an’ stuff?

McCalvy's always been cool, as far as I can tell

I’ve noted a lot of SBN sites seem to refer to “their” mlb.com writer the way we do Haudricourt. I’m glad Adam keeps his opinions out of things.

yup

McCalvy likes us.

Also, cheese.

So

this must mean he must at least glance in our direction occasionally, or at least someone who has his ear does. Pretty cool to know that some of the stuff on here (dixie’s pitchf/x analyses hopefully) might actually find it’s way into the organization in some form or another.

McCalvy, if you are indeed out there, nice to have you around and I hope you enjoy the site.
