Will the Streak Continue?

The Rather Quite Angry Cloud!
While today's game related post/sarcastic commentary will go on as scheduled, tomorrow's may actually miss being on time. Actual important appointment whatitswhoits and intermittent tomfoolery are on the agenda for Thursday.

The Minnesota Kave Kubel.

So I leave you with our friend, the Rather Quite Angry Cloud and an even older MS PAINT picture of Jason Kubel in his natural habitat.

Do not cry for me, Argentina, I am not a war criminal hiding out inside your glorious borders, enjoying hot Argentinian lay-deez. Really, I am not so stop asking. Don't make me move to Latvia because I am too hot a celebrity there and would rather stay out of their scandal rags.

A Secondary Introduction

Hello, my name is David.

This is where I will, very rarely, write about my favorite baseball club: the Detroit Tigers. I became a fan of the Tigers thanks to seeing Alan Trammell and Lou Whitaker on television. The year was 1983. In 1984 the Tigers went on to win a World Series and my fanaticism was rewarded.

Of course, the Tigers went on to have the worst record in the 1990s and in 2003 had one of the worst seasons in Major League Baseball history. So, yeah, good choice!

I tend to be sarcastic, smarmy and dead set in my ways. I tend to go with opinion when writing because I am too lazy to look up all the numbers. While I understand the concepts, logic and usage of sabermetrics, I am a sideline advanced metrics user - meaning I have trouble using them to explain just why they are important.

Instead, I will fill this page with some humor; bad MSPain abominations; and occasional long lists using semi-colons in a way that I find infuriating but found out is somewhat permissible.

Welcome... and if you are here for rich insight, you need help.
