Lone Star Ball, a Texas Rangers community

Another joke for ya, hope you like it

lol: "It’s not a remote experience for teams to win without a strong manager; the Rangers could conceivably have won with a mannequin modeling a uniform placed in the corner of the dugout; the Diamondbacks under Bob Brenly won the World Series in 2001 and won 98 games in 2002—Brenly was the equivalent of a laid off crash test dummy, but he knew enough to let the players play and stay out of the way."

Video and story showing how accommodating Ron Washington is to fans in Surprise.

A couple days old, but still pretty funny. It's obviously going to be more about the story of Beane's life and the building of an anti-establishment team whose rejected players stick it to everyone else. It's not going to be about sabermetrics or a break down on exploiting market inefficiencies. I'm a sucker for a good sports movie, and Brad Pitt is awesome, so I think this could be pretty good. Also, Rangers fans should enjoy this post on the casting of Moneyball, since it includes Don Cheadle in the pivotal role of Ron Washington.
