Just finished watching the movie Eight Men Out........

It's a wonderful account of the Black Sox (1919) World Series. It features John Cusack, Charlie Sheen and Christopher Lloyd. I'd say definitely check this one out if you haven't seen it.

I think I saw this movie back when it was new, but I'm watching it now and its brought some thoughts that I missed the first time. I didn't catch the part about Komiskey being such a tight ass and it puts a new light on the possible causes for the scandal. It also might be a cause for why ball players are being paid what they are these days. Very thought-provoking movie.
