Somebody posted on the Oakland A's newsgroup about 5 or 6 weeks ago
just as their run was starting, that the A's were 300-1 to win the
ALCS.
I had just finished reading Moneyball, and I actually thought the
genius that is Billy Beane could turn it around. After all he had
masterminded the two best post All-Star second half seasons in history.
My only reservation was their inability to get over the ALDS hurdle.
I wishing now I'd placed that bet while they were 300-1.
