Dan Werr is one of the authors over at primer- and he posted this little gem a while back, perfect for the community over here- its been nominated for a primey, and I thought Id share it with anyone who didnt see it there...

I think we have enough young people here that we can start a sabermetric boy band. This would spread the gospel, as it were, and also be pretty lucrative.

Anyone want to join the boy band? I think we should call it "Prime-8." Here are a few ideas for songs:

Sabermetric Darling
Ur EQA is AOK
Replacement-Level Girlfriend
Out of My League
Positional Adjustment

I'll be the cute one. I'll go by the name "Ace Reliever." We can have a patented dance-step, the Four-Man Rotation. This is a goldmine just waiting to be...um, mined.
