2040 Media Guide - Open Call!
You guys know the drill. We're looking anything the drips with BBA goodness.
o Silly fiction -- yep.
o Fun analysis -- uh-huh
o Odes to favorite players or coaches or ... -- yes sir
o Fan perspectives, a talking baseball, retrospectives on the leagues, biting commentary from the significant other, rivalry fodder, simply misbegotten ideas, comics, poems, little bits of fluffy nothing...don't worry about it all. Yes, there are bigger points for articles, but we'll manage any contribution...no idea too small if it as anything fun around it.
o You get the idea...at the end of the day, this is whatever we wind up making it.
A couple notes:
1) I would appreciate letting me know you're thinking about something simply so I can get prepared for it.
2) I'm happy to note that Joe is helping to do a bit of the formatting and management of it. So we'll figure out how that works as we go.
3) The "deadline" for these things is essentially the day before Opening Day, but earlier is appreciated if it's possible.

Re: 2040 Media Guide - Open Call!
I have a couple of fun research projects in the fire, probably going to turn at least one into a media guide piece, others into league features and some will be pushed into later years or sent to the recycle bin. I will let you know.

I have the HOF stuff still lying around here. I might be able to get Level 2 up for the Media Guide but the expansion stuff may be time consuming on my end. I'll try though.

Re: 2040 Media Guide - Open Call!
I'm thinking of putting together something ridiculous. Hmm..

Life is a bit more beautiful when time is measured by the half inning rather than the half hour.

Ron I sent you an email with my piece. As a teaser for everyone the topic is active leaderboards with a heavy amount of Bill James Favorite Toy usage and also some historical rate analysis.

Just a reminder...if you're working on a Media Guide piece, I need it NLT sometime tomorrow.
