If everything can be saved [Viewing Notes]

1. Billy knows what the purpose of the team is, not to find which player is good, and then to buy him at the most suitable and affordable price, but to win and win. We will always forget our ultimate goal, and run to achieve a small goal, in fact, they are just smoke bombs, and what you don't know is that to reach the end, you can take a purer path.
Are there always people doing things that put the cart before the horse?

2. What Billy can't forget is what happened to him 20 years ago. People all over the world told him that he is the star of tomorrow. He was bought at a high price, but he couldn't hit a ball for several years in a row. What about his five abilities? What about his potential? This is a game, not a game of his own, not a billy show, but a team confrontation.

He may have discovered the essence of victory from his own tragedy. It is clear that they want a championship ending, not a baseball star like giambi. What if one is missing, they can use the other three to fill it up. This is one Zhang Ju, filling up is still a victory.

He really didn't want this kind of tragedy to happen to others.
The mistakes made 20 years ago never faded out of his life. He had already got an offer to Stanford. So he didn't want to watch the live broadcast anymore.

3. Why do I love this kind of feature film that uses games to support the entire story structure? . . . . Going to embark on a road of no return. .

4. "I made one decision in my life based on money. And I swore I never do it again."

It's so weird. Billy's mood can actually be described by lenka's the show.
Perhaps the failure 20 years ago made me never able to use anything to fill that missing piece.
"He hit a home run, but he still doesn't know." You have done well enough, and the rest, it's time to let go, just enjoy the show.

Moneyball quotes

    Scout Barry: What does that mean?

    Scout Barry: OK.

    [Beane buries his head in hands out of frustration with the conversation]

    John Poloni: Now you guys are full of it. Artie's right. This guy's got an attitude and an attitude is good. I mean it's the kind of guy who walks into a room and his dick has already been there for two minutes.

    Phil Pote: He passes the eye candy test. He's got the looks. He's great at playing the part. He just needs to get some playing time.

    Matt Keough: I'm just saying his girlfriend is a 6 at best.

  • Peter Brand: It's about getting things down to one number. Using stats to reread them, we'll find the value of players that nobody else can see. People are over looked for a variety of biased reasons and perceived flaws. Age, appearance, personality. Bill James and mathematics cuts straight through that. Billy, of the twenty thousand knowable players for us to consider, I believe that there is a championship team of twenty five people that we can afford. Because everyone else in baseball under values them. Like an island of misfit toys.
