Sensibility beats the rational side

After reading some comments on soybean oil, I saw many interpretations of the film. At first I was just moved, and I didn't remember why I was moved. Now my thoughts are gradually clear.

As a soybean oil said, this is an atypical inspirational story. He still didn't win, he made the wrong choice, or such a loser.

In fact, my biggest feeling is, is Billy a rational person or is it emotional?

He did not hesitate to implement the theory of economics, and rejected an offer that would obviously bring him greater economic benefits. He chooses players based on scientific statistics, but uses his inner likes and dislikes to choose his life. Higher income, a boss who supports his ideas, and a more successful life in the eyes of others, all of which constitute the most cost-effective choice, and he still gave up. Because he really want to win, here. But this goal is too unrealistic.

Did he lose his sensibility or his reason?

Are you pursuing universal values ​​or sticking to your own strange dreams? If you enjoy the show, can you say that you are not a loser?

    It can only be said that “technology promotes life”. The reason for not winning the game before that is because electronic technology has not been developed. It is not very much related to the management of the team with personal philosophy; the typical academic style, the photography script performs lines and plays The light soundtrack is like an old man, which is dizzy. It is still the old saying "No orgasm, no matter how good the scene is, you can't make it."

    Atypical sports inspirational. Both the real experience of Billy Bean and the novel are highly praised in management. The subversive effect caused has even shaken the American sports world. The most subversive thing lies in the fact that the team is truly operated as a business, and the corresponding evaluation is made with data and model analysis, and in the end it is small and big. The introduction of news clips enhanced the documentary of the film. Not only Brad Pitt, but Jonah Hill also gave a completely different performance from the past.
