Given that this month marks the fifth anniversary of Subway Squawkers, I was hoping this would finally be the year we’d get recognized with some big ol’ award. You know, like a Pulitzer, a MacArthur Genius Grant, something like that. No such luck so far. They announced this year’s Peabody Awards today, and we were shut out again. This was my reaction:

Jon and I are contributors to the Graphical Player 2011 book. And Jon’s work is featured in the new Cambridge Companion to Baseball book. Jon and I will both be attending a signing event for the book tonight at Borders in Columbus Circle at 7 p.m. this evening. If you’re in the city, and feel like stopping by to say hi, please do!
