His range of cultural references ends somewhere around 1961 ("Bye Bye Birdie" is as contemporary as he gets), whereas Mustang's extends no further than 1940. No wonder so many commenters here are confounded by advanced baseball analysis--the Rolling Stones and the Beatles and hula-hoops are probably news to you guys as well. Whatever happened to REAL music like Glenn Miller and Frankie Laine, and baseball sages like Larry McPhail, who found his analytics swirling at the bottom of a bottle of Jim Beam? Those great old days, when Hollywood moguls could gobble all the pussy they wanted without a gaggle of joyless puritanical feminists nipping a their heels. And what's all this business about infield shifts? And racial equality? And homos getting married? Another bottle of Jack Daniel, boy, and be quick about it. . . .
