Stolen Bases and PITCHf/x

By Tangotiger, 12:09 PM

Great stuff from Jeremy.

It’ll feel good to retire one day, knowing there’s some a great group of talented and hardworking analysts out there, who have jobs where they can sneak in all this great work.

The internet is as much about adding value to corporate america’s efficiency as it is about removing value by surfing and posting.

I thought retirement meant we can stay at home and do baseball all the time, while the pension check comes in the mail.
