I see this one a lot, and you'd think it would get old, but it just never does.
Gorilla Marketing
I really wish I could draw so I could create a little picture of a gorilla doing marketing activities. Because that would be funny. So imagine that for me, okay?

Today's book
You know it's going to be a great book when it has an Epilouge. Especially when the book is nonfiction, which means it probably shouldn't have either an epilogue or an epilouge. Here are a couple other choice awesomnesses:
He threw his right leg as he slowly walked to his seat on the bench and thought pensively.
This is a great mental picture. I hope it was a peg leg. Also, I'd be interested in knowing at what time his thinking was not pensive.
After the UCLA win, the Cats had a lot of confidence going into the USC game from the UCLA game.
This is how the book is written. Sentences circle around each other until we all get very dizzy.
I have the upmost respect for him.
Right. This respect is definitely the most up.
This book also speaks in awesome sports cliches. The interesting thing about these cliches is that while they sound lame when you say them, they sound downright stupid when you read or write them. Observe:
He knew how to take the ball to the hoop.
So let me get this straight. The recruiting strategy was to find high schoolers who understood how to take a ball to a hoop. That really narrows it down.
He was a player.
Yes, I'm sure the young man on the court wearing your team's jersey was a player. But was he a good player? That remains to be seen.
Sidenote: I looked up "threw his leg" to try to figure out if this was something I simply didn't understand. The first hit was the Wikipedia page for Bill Buckner.
Google for the win.
