For whatever reason I always thought Dave was much older. I guess that’s a compliment?

True. Like I said, I won’t hold it against him ; ).

Also, Dave Cameron was not involved in the Fantasy Blog application process, so it shouldn’t sway your vote for him, one way or another.

**I didnâ€™t even get a simple â€œno thank youâ€ in response to my application to write for your Fantasy section.**

Neither did I. Do you expect “no thank you” from potential employers you apply to in person? I’ve never been given a “no thank you” in that respect.

When you consider FanGraphs’ audience and how many people they probably got to apply, responding to each and every one would be inefficient and unnecessary.

I didn’t even get a simple “no thank you” in response to my application to write for your Fantasy section. Now you expect me to vote for you? Well, I guess I’ll put myself in the category of the “hundred or so sheep that visit your site” and vote anyway.

Cast my ballot for you, and then had a great laugh at one of the comments on that page:

”

If this contest is based on oneâ€™s ability to self-promote and mobilize a voting population for his selfish needs, then David Cameron is your man. I have never before been able to understand so much about an individualsâ€™ personality on the web. His narcissitic and acerbic style literally drips off of the screen. The funny thing about this is that his field of expertise (sabermetrics) is already populated with his type of guy, so for him to stand out in a field so ripe with arrogance really is an accomplishment.

If his blog post regarding an Open Letter is any indication of his ability as an analyst, letâ€™s hope that he doesâ€™nt quit his day job. That particular masterpiece was more like an open letter to swiss cheese. If what you strive for is a guy that uses a faulty thesis statement and backs it up with sub-standard statistics, Dave is your man. When he then uses his stat-world to advise on the field behavior, he gets so laughably out of his depth, only his 100 or so sheep at his site keep his head out of the water. I am sure that you all will be hearing multiple times from them, but he has scores of critics in the area who find him to be somewhat of a fraud.

I think you have a new fan, Dave.

With this extra dough, will you be able to move out of your mother’s basement?
