You Aren't a FanGraphs Member
It looks like you aren't yet a FanGraphs Member (or aren't logged in). We aren't mad, just disappointed.

2. Unlimited articles! Non-Members only get to read 10 free articles a month. Members never get cut off.

4. Custom player page dashboards! Choose the player cards you want, in the order you want them.
5. One-click data exports! Export our projections and leaderboards for your personal projects.
6. Remove the photos on the home page! (Honestly, this doesn't sound so great to us, but some people wanted it, and we like to give our Members what they want.)
7. Even more Steamer projections! We have handedness, percentile, and context neutral projections available for Members only.
8. Get FanGraphs Walk-Off, a customized year end review! Find out exactly how you used FanGraphs this year, and how that compares to other Members. Don't be a victim of FOMO.

Carson Cistulli has published a book of aphorisms called Spirited Ejaculations of a New Enthusiast.
Damn.
I for one am very glad to have contributed to this journey to the unexplored frontiers of taste, even if I have been barred from so contributing again.
P.S. How dare I not?
WBE, as an objective observer and concerned reader, I would feel hard-done-by if I were you. Your question (I believe it was “how dare you, sir?”) was well thought out and, in my opinion, well within the prescribed rules (which there were none, if I’m not mistaken). So for you to be sent off for that is unjust. I for one would support your future submission of questions to Mr Perry.
Dayn’s hair metal and other various rock renditions are to be commended. WHY ISN’T ANYONE TALKING ABOUT THIS? Any plans for, say, a Notgraphs Idol episode featuring the entire back catalog of Mr. Perry?
I still don’t know how to tell dad that mom has cancer.
What a tease.
They didn’t even ban you.
Cistulli kind of answered it with the follow on discussion. — Just wait until one of them dies. The situation solves itself.
question time.
There could pretty easily be an entire podcast of stories from Dayn that begin with “And this is Mississippi…”
Cistulli and Perry have truly surpassed themselves with this one. Is there any hope of an uncensored version, for posterity? Or a CD release?
We could definitely do with an uncensored version of these podcasts.
On another note: I wonder if David Dimbleby knows that a number of non-British baseball fans on the internet are now well acquainted with his voice.
Carson said “CBSsports.com’s ‘Eye on Baseball’ and Dayn did not immediately follow up with ‘the home for all baseball fans.'” Surprising.
The “Question Time” soundbite somehow never gets old.
