I am here because I am little bit more obsessed with the Oakland Athletics than the average fan.
I don't know a whole lot about stats, or A's history before I was born, or why I trust Billy Beane so much, I just do.
I come here to learn a lot more than I come here to inform, and I come here to be entertained by all of you fellow AN'ers.
That is all.
a fan of
Oakland Athletics
Los Angeles Kings
