Moneyball

Today, I had Magic Hat #9 on draft. Amazing, I will leave it at that.

I also went to see Moneyball. It was a great movie, especially because I went in with no expectations (Which is always the best way going into movies). I felt that the movie didn't obnoxiously over exaggerate the scene to accommodate the viewers. It was a nice and relaxing film to watch. The only thing is if you know anything about the background, it's hard to get as excited since you know what will happen.

This movie reminded me how I would love to live my life. I would love to have my work to take over my life. Some people because want that distinction between their job and life. If I had it my way, I wouldn't have that, I would want be fully immersed into my career. I wouldn't mind thinking about work 24/7 if I that too, especially if I truly loved it. I am not saying that I don't want anything but a career because I do want a family and all that jazz. Why only spend 40 hours doing what you love?

I guess that's the dream, right?

Update: New York Yankees up 7-0 going into the eighth, lose to Rays in 12 innings. Eliminates the Red Sox from the playoff race. Yankee fans shouldn't celebrate. Something to link the movie to this situation: Nothing matters if you lose the last game of the season.
