The Amazin' Avenue Annual Is In The Apple iBookstore

At long last, the Amazin' Avenue Annual is available in the Apple iBookstore, so those of you with iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches can finally have the book about which Paul DePodesta said, "Entertaining, insightful, and always passionate, the Amazin' Avenue Annual is a must-read for Mets fans."

You can use this direct link or just search for "amazin' avenue annual" from the iBookstore on your iOS device.

Kindle and Nook versions should be available later this week.

As I mentioned the other day, anyone who buys an electronic version of the AAA is eligible for a 50% off coupon to purchase the print book from ACTA Sports. Just send proof of your iPad/Kindle/Nook AAA purchase to amazinavenue@gmail.com and we'll give you the coupon code to get the print book for around $10.

And again, if you've read and enjoyed the book, please consider writing an Amazon.com review.

Click past the jump for iPad and iPhone screenshots.

I hate to be the guy who asks this

but if I’ve got a Kindle, there’s no option, correct?

I hate to be the guy who asks this

but am I expected to READ ALL the paragraphs before I start complaining on the thread? Next you’re gonna tell me I’m supposed to READ the damn book once I buy it. Jeez.

I was waiting for the Kindle release too

but became a bit impatient as the season was starting. So I ordered it from Amazon.

Finished it last night. Great read, guys. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Just want to mention that I could tell most of the authors are far younger than I. You can always tell by the tone. Not many around that experienced both the ’69 and ’86 season as I was lucky enough to. Boy has the game changed since back in my day.

LGM!

I have the hard copy.

Because you can’t make sweet, sweet love to an e-book.

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:

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

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!
