Stat Man: Bill James on 60 Minutes

This is a nice piece done on Bill James, whose name I've been hearing quite often recently. This guy invented "sabermetrics" -- the analysis of baseball based on objective data. He is a fascinating interview. The clip is the entire 13 minute spot from 60 Minutes from this past Sunday, March 29, 2008. Check it out. And I apologize for the ads both before and after the clip, but the people at CBS are too smart to allow their footage to be ripped from the internet by jokers like me, so I had to settle for the embedded video option.
