    My son was sick today so I stayed home with him. We watched Money Ball, and I really liked the movie. If you are a baseball fan I definetly recommend it.

    After reading the book, I thought the movie was a disappointment.

    Just my opinion though...

    They usually are. I've never seen a case where a movie is better than the book.

    I liked the movie, but the idea that David Justice was the reason that team won is a joke. They won because of Zito, Mulder, Hudson , Dye and Tejada.
