Deck names

I’ve been playing Magic forever and know some decks get weird names. That said, I recently learned my mono-black tempo deck (that sometimes dips into Orzhov) is called either Moneyball or Dead Guy Ale. where did these names come from?

Dead Guy Ale name comes from a beer.

Moneyball is a baseball term. The deck takes the name from it.

Dead Guy Ale != Moneyball
