By Shanks D Zoro Go To Postno, because moneyball argued against signing players based on just talent. It was about saying there is more to a player than just being a "five tools" guy.
The red sox did spend money, but they spent it on players who would get base, and if I remember correctly they had a bullpen that had a few specialists that were undervalued.
I'd agree that the Red Sox built that team around a "moneyball" philosophy.
They also had the second hightest payroll in 2004, which makes things much easier and is not nearly as impressive as the teams Oakland has built over the past 10 years.
NBC is airing fucking golf nationally instead the game at Newcastle. Fuck off Comcunts.
Rampant Remy please do harm.

By Wedward Go To PostSure, they have done well.
But they aren't doing anything different than most teams.
What do you think about us vs. united next week
By Slaent Made Me Change My Username Go To PostI don't want to live in a world where a Benitez team wins La Liga.
Well you already live in a world where a Benitez team has won La Liga, not once, but twice
By Slizz Go To PostI feel like a team 7 games back in a pretty tough division at the trade deadline would be trading big names rather than signing big names.
Trust me I know about moves to win World Series', both Marlins chips were bought/farm.
Look at the Giants in 2010.
Cody Ross won them a World Series.
By Slaent Made Me Change My Username Go To PostRangers say hiVery surprising, but the Astros strong start wasn't going to stay, it was inevitable they'd drop in form. Too young.

Going to smash the cunts.

That's true.
Roma running riot now, poor Carpi, they look awful.
By Punished Go To PostWhat formation did Liverpool play today? Anyone interesting in the game?
--------------------------Mignolet obvsly-----------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------Can-----Skrtel-----Sakho-------------------
Clyne-----------------------------------------------------Moreno
-----------------------Lucas-----------------------------------------
--------------------------------------Milner-------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------Coutinho-----------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------Ings-----------------
-------------------------Sturridge----------------------------------
Moreno and Clyne were pushing very high, as was Milner. Against a better team Milner would be stationed in his default position I think
By Esch Go To PostWhat do you think about us vs. united next week
Apparently we have failed to score in every other league game since April, don't know how many that is, but we better end that next week,
By n8 Go To PostBit odd to say Spurs and Pool at home aren't difficult when away teams are winning left and right this season. Think the difference has become relatively negligible the more counter-attacking has become the norm.I dunno, I wouldn't class those as amongst the more difficult games, not at H.
Think we've had four relatively tough games and three easy ones (Sun/New/Villa). Happy to have 16 points from what we've played; annoyed we don't have 18 b
Really need to win against Wolfsburg now. Take the draw at Arsenal going into the international break - but with Martial and Depay we might have a chance on the counter. Our midfield should be able to control them.
By Frustrated_me Go To PostMessi out for 8 weeks, injuries suck.
By Slaent Made Me Change My Username Go To PostI don't want to live in a world where a Benitez team wins La Liga.prepare for take off then
By Slizz Go To PostWijnaldum….. I like him, is he really Newcastle bad?Hard to tell
Like us but to a far bigger extent, Newcastle drag decent players down to an absolutely mediocre baseline
By Slaent Made Me Change My Username Go To PostI don't want to live in a world where a Benitez team wins La Liga.Viva Rafalution.
By Gurthang Go To PostJese is shitNot his best game, but he needs these minutes if we're to have squad depth later in the season.
By Bold One Go To PostI know it made a lot of people really bitter last year, but much like Martial - Destiny The Taken King is the real dealWhy? What changed? It has cutscenes now?
By Wedward Go To PostGoing to smash the cunts.

no way he's gonna miss el clasico
hgh + serbian witchdoctor + horse placenta and he'll be good to go
By Hitch Go To Post£40 for a Destiny patch
Jesus.
Complete disgrace.
Bungie getting away with it beautifully.
Disgusting. This game was supposed to have all this content last year at release for 60 dolars, instead most people paid 130 for it.
By snk2 Go To Postno way he's gonna miss el clasicoI don't think he will either, no way that happens.
hgh + serbian witchdoctor + horse placenta and he'll be good to go
By Gurthang Go To Postfuck Varane is injuredDONT DO THIS TO ME.
This lineup is not clicking.. Something is clearly off, I wish we had James to glue everything together.
So I know Chelsea beat Arsenal but I thought they still looked pretty bad.
This game is beginning to confirm my suspicion that they are no way near recovering from their slump.
