First off, special thanks to Eazy E and NWA for today's title post.

Now, then, hey all you Leatherheads out there! I know there's a small matter like the World Series going on, but I just thought it would be wise to take a minute to let you all know that it seems like Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game is being made into a movie, starring Brad Pitt as Billy Beane.

For those of you who do not know, Moneyball is a book written by Billy Bean simulating what would happen if there were only three teams in a league. Team A, composed entirely of computers, and Team B, composed entirely of fat, slow, ugly men who nonetheless enjoyed walking, would tie for the pennant. Team C, full of physically gifted, fast and good fielding ballplayers would come in last place. Because the book showed that computers and fat men actually played baseball better than athletically gifted men with far superior jawbones, it angered many baseball traditionalists. Also, it did not have its intended effect of selling jeans.
