But fret not, because you aren’t alone.  Men procrastinate […]

It’s been a pretty good year for Billy Beane, sure, the Athletics are coming off a disappointing 74-win season, but Beane himself has been immortalized on film by Brad Pitt’s Oscar-nominated performance in Moneyball and now Billy is on the verge of completing a deal to extend his tenure in Oakland through the 2019 season.

The headline pretty much says it all, Josh Hamilton has reportedly had a relapse with alcohol in the last week.
