Then you are incorrect. This isn't an opinion, it's a fact. What do you think Bill James is employed for.

So, just because Bill James is employed by the team the transition is instant? They become a calculator team right then? I find that rather hard to believe. I did note that I feel there has been a transition there with the Red Sox, I just didn't really feel that it was full on until the Manny Ramirez trade.

I came across this thread and joined just to correct you. Several of the things in this thread are not an objective opinion thing, there's a fact to them and you have misinformation. Not to be a jerk, it's just the way it is: you are wrong about several things as a matter of objective fact, not subjective opinion.

Not to be a jerk, but you haven't shown what is objective fact, not subjective opinion.

But you refuse to accept that you are incorrect, so there's no point in furthering the discussion. You are wrong but you refuse to accept that as a posibility. So there's nowhere else to go with this. As another person linked to this thread said: "It's probably not worth your time." And he's probably correct.

I'm completely OK with being incorrect. I am incorrect constantly. Because I argue what I believe in I refuse to accept the possibility that I'm wrong? Really? You're going to come with that? Sorry, but you aren't even bringing strong arguments...now, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say the reason for that is that you're not even making attempt. Like you said, "it's probably not even worth your time"...and that's the attitude I feel like I've seen. You're just talking me down, not building up you arguments.

Again, just to be clear, I'm not saying you can't defend your viewpoints, I have no idea your knowledge based on five posts, I'm merely saying that I feel you haven't attempted to really support what you've said.

I mean, you come here, tell me I'm wrong and that you're right...then offer up that I can't see the possibility that I'm wrong?

Hopefully, though, I may have gotten to you enough that you will do your research and will make sure you know what you're talking about and have a more informed background on the topic.

Honestly, I've done a lot of reading about the topic and certainly don't plan on stopping any time soon. Before this conversation, after this conversation. I certainly feel like I have a good informed base on the topic, just because I'm less accepting of a lot of things doesn't mean I am not informed about them.
