    Careers in Baseball [even if you can't swing a bat]

    http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/job-p...iple-openings/

    Entry level type gigs here basically, but its something for those who might want to try to get involved in their passion and turn it into a career.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

    Linux-Apple/Unix/Microsoft .NET....it's like the RBIs/KOs/WAR endless debates.
    99% of all numbers only tell 33% of the story so when looking at the numbers remember that numbers is plural...

    Without reading the article, I must say that if you can't swing a bat, the best job in baseball would be a relief pitcher.

    For some reason I thought a site like that would be a php/mysql shop, not .NET

    I thought the same thing. As a php developer I was a little disappointed.
