Oliver will win after Cistulli saves its reputation with a cocktail called the Oliver Twist. The formula is a closely-guarded secret, although it involves a slice of lime.
Did Fangraphs and HBT utilize the “assets over” or “assets-up” form of merger (26 CFR 1.708-1(b)(3)) or was it a straight asset purchase? Did HBT’s profits interest pay out, get canceled or get assumed? C’mon, give us Inside Baseball.
For the movie, portray this as a hostile takeover; conflict is more entertaining than baby bunnies and kittens.

I’m sorry Dave, but I’m afraid I can’t do that.

One must wonder how pliant THT will be once David Appelman finishes his marathon marriage consumation.

Prima Noctae for all THT writers?
Meh, considering everybody lives in their moms’ basement, it probably won’t be an issue.

I would love to see a FG/THT movie.
All of those spreadsheets makes for a riveting plot, I’m sure.

Does this mean the THT site will get a web redesign so it stops looking like a junior high school project?

So nobody has to stay up late wondering: yes, I will make a cameo playing myself.

Baby bunnies eaten by kittens—and smiling all the while! Very kawi.

And perhaps FG will get a copy editor. Synergy, indeed.
