Miscellaneous jibber-jabber:
I’ve now got a beta version of the 2004 Fantasy Draft Simulator available. I’ll take a break from it for awhile to work on presenting my art theory, and then I’ll finish it off in another week or so.
I’ve added more Humbug Soup. The latest one, #4, is entitled What the Dodgers have with DePodesta.
There’s a nice discussion about baseball songs over at Baseball Primer. My two daughters (ages 6 and 3) have a strong opinion on this. They both agree that “Move Over Babe (Here Comes Henry)” is by far the best baseball song ever. “D-O-D-G-E-R-S Song” places a distant second. Hmm…I better go make sure my theory about art can explain this…
[UPDATE:] My wife thinks my six-year-old likes “Did You See Jackie Robinson Hit That Ball?” second best, and that my three-year-old prefers “I Love Mickey”. I guess I was probably projecting my own preference on them. Well, at least I was right about “Move Over Babe”. The music is from a CD called Baseball’s Greatest Hits. My kids love to listen to it. I highly recommended the CD for baseball fans, especially those with kids. But you might have to burn a copy without the Tommy Lasorda bleepfest, unless you want to try to explain it to them.
