You're saying this proves you COULDN'T have made as much money doing something mundane? On the other hand, what ordinary job in 2014 pays you millions? Any idea what I'm getting at here?

Rich, Carlton throws out so many assertions, in what for me is often an indigestible soup of syntax, that I don't even want to deal with it head-on. I'm glad you and some others are tackling it.

I agree that WAR is not a "magic device," if anybody's saying it is.

I do not agree that pitchers' wins are "awesome."
