My name is Jon (or Baseball Jesus, depending upon who at LSB you ask). I'm from Southern California, which only means I have cause to hate the Angels waaay more than you do.

Things I like: posting dinosaurs in gameday threads, playing around with Fangraphs leaderboards, and watching hitters like Chase Utley.

Things I dislike: Ron Washington, the sad, outmoded way of thinking the baseball media perpetuates, and watching hitters like Marlon Byrd.

The avy, in case you're wondering, is currently of Kristen Bell.
