Fangraphs Live in NYC (L’Alliance Francaise), update

By Tangotiger, 02:26 PM

MGL from 10:40 - 11:15.  And lots more people that you would be familiar with.

Had a great time, even my wife found it interesting.

David Appelman invited me backstage before the program began. Then and afterwards I got a chance to talk to MGL, Jonah Keri, Dave Cameron, Sky Kalkman, Craig Glaser and Ben Lindbergh.

Glad you enjoyed it Brian.  It was nice to meet you.  First time I met Dave Cameron as well.  He is a real character and a good guy.  I also really liked John Sciambi, an ESPN sportscaster. He is very saber-friendly.

Is there going to be some sort of recap somewhere?

Well, mgl started off his intro with “I am not a pr*ck!”

A lot of people thought Tango might be in the audience, but of course no one has ever met him so we wouldn’t have known.

Seriously, as no one (even at FanGraphs) has done a recap, I’ll see what I can come up with.

Dave Cameron told me this evening that there would be full audio from the event.

As Buddy from Seinfeld would say, “high five.”
