Around SBN: Roy Nelson Willing to Pay for His Next Opponent's Drug Test

Listen to me ramble my way through a discussion with FanGraphs MC Carson Cistulli. Topics include the new Mets front office, the Moneyball Book Club and a self-indulgent recap of my baseball fandom. Thank you to Carson for having a podcast n00b like myself on the show, it was fun.

To quote a troll we once knew...
Fangraphs doesn’t know anything
please don’t ever refer to an opinion from Fangraphs as a credible source. They have enough trouble figuring out the handedness of established major league players. Their articles are horrible. The only redeeming quality of the site is their stats, which only proves they have a good data feed and/or they know how to count and/or divide
It would be a breakthrough if they went 2 weeks without getting the handedness wrong of an established major league veteran.

So now that you're doing podcasts

Are you going to talk about the Clippers all the damn time?

At 5:30 PM EDT today Starting today at 5:00 PM EDT, witness one of the greatest renderings of visual sound effects ever!

UPDATE 1: My browser has crashed several times in the process from all the rants (FUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!) - as a result, there will instead be 4 or 5 separate installments of fxcarden's Nightly Rants! from 2011, with a similar pattern for the 2012 rants. Take my word for it, when I say that it's for the best. Here's the revised schedule:

Volume 1: 2011
No. 1: Today at 5:00 PM EDT
No. 2: Tomorrow
No. 3: Thursday
No. 4 and No. 5 (?) TBD

UPDATE 2: Vol. I, No. 1 (July, 2011) is now up!

2013 ALL-STAR GAME(TM) LOGO CONTEST

Major League Baseball has formally announced that Citi Field will be the site of the 2013 All-Star Game. (see video) In light of this, I have decided to launch an All-Star Game logo contest. To help get you started, I provided all of you with a sample All-Star Game logo. (click here to embiggen) If you wish to participate, please enter your submission with an image below, in the comments section. The contest ends on May 31st. I will choose a select number of finalists, and the community will vote on which of those logos is the best one.

Can you create a better logo than the sample logo provided? Then, give it a shot. Good luck to all participants!
Jon Rauch is awesome. Dan Tanna is, obviously, a fan of Greg Pomes.
