Moneyball

[gongoozler]

This movie Moneyball (the Art of Winning an Unfair Game) is about Billy Beane and the A's and shows the inner game of baseball . . . the back room, management, etc. It's slow but very intertaining especially if you are interested in the world of sports . . . I'd say an 8.5 out of 10 and Brad Pitt was super along with Phillip Seymour Hoffman who plays the A's manager! Actually received a standing ovation at the end of the show on Sunday.:clap2:

I'm going to check it out. Enjoyed the book.

Not sure about the strategy since Sox and Yanks still seem to win by spending money (not this year though :cry: )

In the end I think money can make any statistic look good!
