    FILM DESCRIPTION:
    Billy Beane (Brad Pitt), general manager of the Oakland A's, one day has an epiphany: Baseball's conventional wisdom is all wrong. Faced with a tight budget, Beane must reinvent his team by outsmarting the richer ball clubs. Joining forces with Ivy League graduate Peter Brand (Jonah Hill), Beane prepares to challenge old-school traditions. He recruits bargain-bin players whom the scouts have labeled as flawed, but have game-winning potential. Based on the book by Michael Lewis.

      CEOs are not really rich. Owners are, who do not have to *work*, like Bobby. Compare him to the owner of the other team, who made Billy that offer later: His life revolves about thinking what birthday present his wife would be willing to accept.

    There is a powerful message at 1:34. As long as the other person responds to you within the conversation, you can try to persuade them. But when Billy is met with "can i help you with anything else?" that means the previous conversation is over and you can no longer persuade them.

      Adam Smith No, we haven’t had a decent ownership group since the Galbraith Group sold it to the City. That group destroyed the scouting/minor league system and the ones since then have accepted losing seasons and enough revenue to pay off the debt and the ownership groups.
      Maybe someone should convince the Red Sox owner to invest in a bad Broadway show, and we’ll buy his quants off him. :-). .

      NFL is different. There is a salary cap and it’s there to stop Jerry from getting all the players. There’s a soft cap in NBA too. But NBA is all about the stars. Better to save money if you don’t have a star etc. then when you get one, you give him the max deal allowed.
      In baseball they have a luxury tax limit that if you cross that, you pay penalty money. But it’s around...200 million. 160 probably in 2002. This owner is paying 38 million, over 100 million less than what’s allowable and he’s not fully wrong. Oakland needed a new stadium and the fan base was economically poor. But he could afford to spend more money. 50-60 million isn’t outside the possibility. And anyone trying to say that he couldn’t afford it, is lying. You have to look close at numbers, but they are definitely lying.

    Thing is though, this is right in the end. Once other teams started using analytics they quickly took a way any advantage the A's had. Teams need to at least be willing to able/willing to spend just below average to be able to win a world series. Analytics are useful but you need stars, maybe not superstars, to win multiple playoff series. Alot of the algorithm bases things on habits and predictions in 162 game season. Teams play differently when they are only guaranteed to be playing for the next few games if they can win.
