SABR Elections: A vote for FX is a vote for progress

Today the Society for American Baseball Research mailed out (bulk mail) the latest SABR Bulletin today, and included is the voting form for the 2009 year.  Running for president is friend of Primer, FX Flinn.  I firmly believe FX will make a heck of a president for SABR.  Unlike many of our SABR brethren Mr. Flinn has attempted to make SABR relevant, which as most of us know is an up hill climb.  Many of the other long time members don’t share his vision, and as a result the demographics of SABR are extremely mature, and in fact without an infusion of youthful thinking (I think it’s been at least 40 years since someone referred to FX as youthful anything) the organization is in my opinion in danger of extinction, at some point in the next 10 to 20 years.

So if you are a member, please vote for FX.  If you are planning to attend this years convention please register early and call the SABR office ask them to mail you the latest bulletin and then vote for FX.  It is extremely important. 

Oh, and yes I realize the link is to election results posted in 2005.  If you search the SABR site for anything more recent, you don’t find anything.  That is what I’m talking about, in regards to youthful thinking.  Posting information on a website rather some snail mail bulletin.
