About MLJ

Hello and thank you for visiting Major League Jerk! If you’ve stumbled across our fine piece of internet real estate then you have either come to read first-rate sports analysis, enjoy laughing or simply did a Google Image Search for “panda.” Whatever the reason for your visit, let us tell you a little bit about ourselves.

Major League Jerk is a premiere sports blog written by a group of argumentative Internet friends who try not to take themselves too seriously despite our inherent awesomeness. On a daily basis we attempt to provide reactionary opinions and make jokes about the world of sports and whatever else might catch our attention. No matter what we’re discussing, we’ll include stats that are cherry picked, that represent only the facts we want you to see.

History Break: When first founded, Major League Jerk was strictly a baseball blog

While it is true we were originally a baseball blog, the offseason forced us to morph in what we feel is a pretty solid all-around website. Don’t worry, we still all love baseball and will continue to write about it. That’s why you’ll be able to discuss everything from how to spit tobacco to the stupidity of batting Corey Patterson lead-off.

There are a bunch of us – 10 at last count, but we haven’t checked the couch cushions yet. Combine that with the fact that we come from all across the country and you can bet that amongst the group we have strong biases towards and against just about any team you can think of.

The Greater Good: If you find yourself offended by something that you read, assume we’re being sarcastic. In fact, assume that even if you agree with something you read. We’re here to have fun, kill time at work and joke about sports. If you’re upset by something we said you probably didn’t get the joke. Don’t worry; you’ll get the next one. (Unless you don’t.)

Major League Jerk is a community that encourages any and all comments. If you agree with us, think we’ve left out an important aspect from our argument, disagree with our interpretation of the raw data, or just want to say “First!” join in the commenting. We’re well aware our posts aren’t perfect, so feel free to engage us in debate or just tell us why we’re wrong.

Finally, we would appreciate it if you didn’t threaten anyone or resort to excessive and unclever profanity. Of course, if your profanity is clever, feel free to use a gratuitous amount. Especially if it makes your comment funnier.

Contact: The entire team can be reached here.  Or, if you’d like to get in touch with one of us in particular, check out the Contact Us page. In fact, if you just want to get a hold of us, perhaps you should have clicked on that page before reading all this.
