Ned Yost, the current (and one of the best) managers the of the (my hometown Milwaukee) Brewers, is, according to Brewers.com, a "tech geek".

He also owns an iPhone. Which, is pretty sweet. While it seems the local sports media goes nuts and calls for his head whenever the Brewers lose a game, I think Yost is one of the best ever to manage (not coach, thats an important difference in baseball) for the Brew Crew. I wouldn't mind seeing him end up coaching in Milwaukee for 10 or 15 years, like some managers in some teams.

What the local sports radio guys seem to forget, is that the Brewers haven't finish above .500 for a season in 15 years, and are currently in first with 3 wins above .500.

Ned was one of my favorite Brewers team members, and one of the best managers. His status has a 'tech geek', like me, has only solidified this. I am now a Ned Yost defender.

Go Brewers.

I've got this fear, some would say, naive fear, that if I change the title of my blog, people will be confused about what it is, so since I've been signed up on Vox, its been, thekevin's blog, with the tagline, "The Midautumn Tech Blog Classic", a pun on Baseball's All-Star game, called often the Midsummer Baseball Classic.

Well, after looking around at some of my favorite blogs here on Vox, I've decided to change it to the The Midautumn Tech Blog Classic, and change the tagline to thekevin's thoughts on today's tech industry.

Therefore, I get to use my baseball-esque name, and people know what it is. Good enough.
