TTM Success - Billy Beane

I got my 72nd TTM success today, Oakland A's GM Billy Beane.  Beane, as I'm sure you know, was portrayed by Brad Pitt in the recent movie Moneyball.  I really liked the movie and took it for what it was, a Hollywood dramatization of the A's early 2000s season.

Beane really is good at what he does, though, as evident by the A's surprising run to the playoffs last year.  I am a fan of the A's historically, since I have done a great deal of reading on the old Philadelphia A's.

I mailed to Beane on April 4 and got him back today, April 10, making him a 6-day TAT.  That's awesomely fast, especially it went from NC to CA.
