When I first heard that Hollywood was making a Moneyball movie, I thought it was a joke. But then Brad Pitt was signed to play Billy Beane and Steven Soderbergh was signed on to direct, which left me scratching my forehead.
Well the bizarre and befuddling nature of this film continues, as it was announced today that Paul DePodesta would be played by none other than Demetri Martin. Are we sure this isn't some elaborate practical joke than John Kruk and Steve Phillips are playing on us people who live in their mom's basements? Demetri Martin? Really?
Also, how is this the first Moneyball tagged post???
Also also, Scott Hatteberg and David Justice will play themselves in the film. This movie is going to monumentally suck. I can't wait to see it!

Moneyball as been mentioned but why has there ever been a need to make Moneyball the focus of any post? We use Moneyball as a justification for many of our arguments but it's never been the central point in anything- hence no one has ever had the need to use Moneyball as a tag. It's really not that surprising at all
Dmitry Martin love! Hopefully his performance will be better than his show...
I did not know that they were making a movie based on Money ball.
