Just bought Tim Donaghys book: Personal Foul

[Sports Collector]

I was wondering if anyone has read the book yet and if they had any idea why espn hasn't been talking about this

I think it's been avaliable since December third so I'm a little curious as to why I'm just finding out about this.

Got it off amazon for $21 shipped, should be a great read

hes been blackballed pretty heavily- ESPN talking about it would give him tons of publicity, which Im sure they dont want him to have, considering their close relationship with the NBA

[Sports Collector]

I know but even Andre Aggasi's book got more face time than this

I read the exerpts online and I can't wait to read it...It's 286 pages, will be done in two days tops

It's going to be my "twilight" for lack of a better term lol

[Mister_Ed]

youve given me a really cool idea...

[Sports Collector]

do tell...

[Mister_Ed]

a CCW library- members post sports related books they are done reading, and other members can buy them from the members for the cost of shipping. when they are done reading them, they can either keep the books, or put them back up for other members to read

sweetness

May I help evolve it a little?

How about members just donate them to ccw and you guy sell them for $5 each (cheaper than a used book on amazon) and then donate that money to the fund where the silent auctions were going to?

[Mister_Ed]

not a bad plan either- ill run both options by the staff.

[Sports Collector]

sweet, keep me posted on it...

[Mister_Ed]

if it happens, which i think it might- it will end up posted...uh, somewhere, and stickied...

heres the rundown- for now, we are going to keep it as free exchange, rather than selling them outright

So how big is Donaghy's profit from this? As much as I wanna buy it, I don't fund this scum.

Definitely buying this book after christmas (I refuse to step foot in any retail store in December). Have been waiting since I read the excerpts, hopefully his writing is a little more interesting than he is during interviews lol. Btw, the reason espn hasn't mentioned it much is because he's kind of turned into a joke due to this interview tour of sorts he's been doing

Not sure

I do know that you aren't aloud to profit from commiting a felony, so maybe none

Although, I'm not stupid enough to believe he's not getting his cut

Amazon isn't his publisher though so if you buy it from them, they've already given him the money
