Title: BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK

So who else watches the home run derby with the volume muted?  I gave him another chance this year, but I had to shut it down after Albert "Winnie the Pooh"jols.

Between Joe Morgan and Boomer, I think I'd lose about 20 points of IQ if I listened.

Joe Morgan is awesome, what are you talking about? But I agree on Boomer. You were listening to 610 this morning weren't you...

I don't get people who watch sports for the commentators.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that nobody is hitting anything. Must have confiscated their steroids at the gate or something.

Well, maybe I'm biased about Morgan because he's the commentator on MLB '07, and always says nice things about my boys in powder blue.  :love:

I guess that's not very different from loving Olathe because it's clean and calling your apartment badass because it has a toilet.

Morgan really came out like an idiot with his Moneyball comments.  That's really all I know about him.

Joe Morgan is one of the more prominent critics of Billy Beane and the "Moneyball" sabermetric style of building teams which focuses on statistical analysis to evaluate player performance and value, even though he has not read Michael Lewis's book Moneyball.[4] Among Morgan's statements are that he has nothing to learn about baseball from a writer or statistician who has never played the sport as a professional, and that "Anytime you're trying to make statistics tell you who's gonna win the game, that's a bunch of geeks trying to play video games." He has drawn the ire of many sabermetricians for this, who consider sabermetrics a useful tool in analyzing baseball performance. He believed Billy Beane himself wrote the book until well after it came out, despite the fact that it was written by Lewis.

Morgan was the subject of a scathing piece in 2005. San Francisco Weekly writer Tommy Craggs interviewed Morgan concerning his beliefs on Moneyball. Throughout the article, Morgan referred to Craggs, as well as other Sabermetrically-inclined baseball fans, as "jokes," as well as, "...geeks trying to play video games." Morgan then compared the use of statistical analysis to white collar crime, claiming, "I could make that computer say what I wanted it to say, if I put the right things in there. ... The computer is only as good as what you put in it. How do you think we got Enron?"[1]
