Name this blog?

By Tangotiger, 12:24 PM

Since at least two people have now commented on the name of this blog, I’ll open it up for suggestions.

First off, this blog has no name.  I didn’t even think to give it a name.  This site (Inside The Book dot com) started off simply to highlight The Book--Playing The Percentages In Baseball.  So “Inside” The Book is the reason the website URL is what it is.  And, of course, because TheBook.com was taken.  The blog came a couple of months after we released The Book. 

Anyway, some people have come to call this place “The Book Blog”, or some other similar variation.  If you have an idea for a name, feel free to post it.  This is a brainstorming session, which means no idea is a bad idea, and no need to comment to that effect.  I’ll nominate the top five or six, open up a poll, then everyone can vote and decide.

Don’t let Stephen Colbert know about this.
