Individual columns should be accessible as attributes of the Brain
object, eg. self.playerID etc. If there's a column PA, it should be
named self.PA. 

Btw., usually when I'm in doubt which attributes or methods are
available for a given object, I just put a breakpoint at the location in
question and poke at it with pdb, the Python debugger. See eg.
http://wiki.zope.org/zope2/DebuggingWithPdb , under "breakpoint in the
code" how to invoke the debugger. See
http://docs.python.org/library/pdb.html for pdb docs.
