I was responding to what Dirk said -- which only references Beane's supposed brilliance. Nothing about the film was mentioned. Everyone who criticizes Beane likes to point out that his teams always fall flat in the playoffs. All I was saying is that it doesn't matter -- the playoffs are a crapshoot and that the teams Beane built (for a fraction of the cost of the teams the A's faced in the playoffs) were still really good. What Beane has done with the small-market A's is incredible -- what they do in the playoffs doesn't change that.

Hope that clarifies things a little.
