Springfield, NJ - Nashville SC Co-owner John Ingram reportedly celebrated the inaugural Nashville SC season by creating an actual soccer ball made of money to reflect the Moneyball nature of his team.
“We nearly spent the least and we made the most,” stated Ingram to The Nutmeg News. “I can’t wait for season three and four when we raise prices incrementally across the board.”
The son of billionaire Martha Ingram, John R. Ingram was pivotal in ensuring the creation of the team in Nashville and empowered general manager Mike Jacobs to employ the moneyball strategy that they used effectively during 2020.
“We’re not gonna spend like Atlanta, Miami, Toronto or Seattle despite having the literal financial backing to do that,” stated Jacobs. “We may have a bunch of billionaires, but we are going to spend like millionaires.”
Ingram reportedly spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to commission his Moneyball that he will display in a trophy room at his second vacation home.
“This Moneyball will be an indication of all the hard work involved in scouting and keeping our costs low,” stated Ingram. “Long may the Moneyball live.”
The Nutmeg News will have more when it turns out that the Moneyball is composed entirely of $1 bills.
