    Albert Brooks: Encyclopedia II - George Steinbrenner - A controversial Boss

    Steinbrenner is famous for both his pursuit of high-priced free agents and, in some cases, infamous for feuding with them. He changed managers 20 times in his first 23 seasons (including letting Billy Martin go 5 times and re-hiring him 4 times) and general managers 11 times in 30 years. In July 1978, Martin said of Steinbrenner and his $3 million outfielder Reggie Jackson, "One's a born liar and the other's convicted." The comment resulted in Martin's first departure, though technically Martin resigned (tearfully) before Yankees President Al Rosen follo ...

    Albert Brooks: Encyclopedia II - List of famous left-handed people - Athletes

    List of famous left-handed people - Baseball. Left-handedness is uniquely prized in baseball, among both hitters and pitchers. For hitters, the natural motion of swinging at a pitch gives a left-handed batter momentum running down the line to first. Left-handed batters typically also have a better view of the pitch thrown by a right-handed pitcher. Likewise, left-handed pitchers are valuable, in part because many left-handed sluggers have severe trouble hit ...

    Albert Brooks: Encyclopedia II - Finding Nemo - Wider effects of the film

    The film's prominent use of clownfish prompted mass purchase of the animals for children's pets in the United States, even though the movie portrayed the use of fish as pets negatively and saltwater aquariums are notably tricky and expensive to maintain. At the same time, the film had a central theme that "all drains lead back to the ocean." (A main character escapes from imprisonment by going down a sink drain and ending up in the sea.) This allegedly caused many children to flush their living fish down toilets in imitation of the picture. ...
