The same reason that I try to avoid doing the same here, I guess. I think we (the Mods & Admins of this site, I mean) can have some professional discourse without resorting to bad-mouthing someone else.

OK, I will suspend reason for a moment and give this a resounding "HAR!!" I'm sorry, but that would be funny as all Hell.

We now resume your regularly scheduled reasonable discourse.

If you want a good laugh, check out the Neyer thread at the other place.

Wow. Just "wow."

Actually, I'm impressed that Neyer took notice of Scout's Honor. He had to know he was unlikely to agree with it, but yet he keeps up with his reading, nonetheless.

I will read Scout's Honor if my local library (from where I read Moneyball) ever acquires a copy.

I just E-mailed Neyer to ask him if he did assist Lewis in writing Moneyball.

I have never heard of Scout's Honor outside of the discussion board.
Never heard it mentioned on any baseball program or read about it in the newspaper. I've never heard it mentioned during a Braves' game on TV. Moneyball I've heard a lot about. Anyone else?

I think Bill's appeared on Cold Pizza and a couple of other ESPN shows regarding the book.
