Moneyball

A book written by Billy Beane, er, Michael Lewis about the 2002 Oakland A's and their quest to reach the playoffs. It discounts some baseball fallacies (i.e. a player can be judged by physical talent alone) and explores the methods of rating players. Thus, teams with little money (such as the A's) can find out who the best available players are and acquire them.

Moneyball describes the importance of statistics such as On-Base Percentage and Slugging Percentage.

1000 Island

One of the best (if not THE best) salad dressings.

I've seriously considered apooning scoops of 1000 Island into my mouth. It didn't end up happening.

Chump

Pathetic character who is often reminded of his (guys are labeled as chumps far more than girls) shortcomings by superiors.

Synonymous with 'loser', although a bit more outdated. See chump change.

Lars: And so than I says, you wanna know what I says? I says, "I'll abama YOU, amigo!"

Chalkie: Lars, you're a chump.
