Said on Ground Truths

“Moneyball was like inflicting science upon baseball, actually testing hypotheses, actually using data. And when I wrote that book, I thought, well, it's over. No one's going to argue with this. … And instead, baseball was furious. They had their view and nothing was going to get in.” — Michael Lewis, Ground Truths

“No one knows what he believes. He is like the quintessential NBA referee. Nobody can tell whose side he's on, and everybody thinks he's on their side.” — Michael Lewis, Ground Truths
