HOW'S HERSCHEL'S BOOK SELLING?

by Orson on May 5, 2008 3:07 PM EDT

It's #6,432 in Amazon's bestsellers, so taking a hit, sure, as the Kroger's sad progress of discount stickers shows.

It should also be noted that Breaking Free is also exactly 432,807 spots above the ESPN Guide to Psycho Fan Behavior. So Herschel Walker kicks our ass yet again. And so does Herschel. And Herschel, and Herschel, too.

Nell’s Cowboy and Lone Star Baby. Literary masterpiece, that one.

He should have revealed which personality was having sex with Roger Clemens. That would have moved product.

It isn’t Herschel’s fault his fanbase can’t read

Tsk-Tsk. Such bitterness.

My favorite H.W.? The one w/ 649 yards in three trips to Jax.

Is the foreword by Jerry Maguire?

And between you and me, I wish Walker would have kept all this stuff to himself.

Herschel Walker is such a liar. He doesn’t have multiple personalities. He’s an attention whore and always has been. From referring to himself in the third person to revealing his “long struggle” in time to capitalize off it.

Well let’s re-evaluate things for a second

Copies of ESPN’s guide to psycho fan behavior(some of which written by Mr Orson Swindle) in SpookyJuice’s home in lovely….um….Columbus, MS(says it real fast)

Copies of Hershel Walker’s guide to doing crazy shit and blaming it on “the other you” (written by the multiple personalities in Hershel’s chiseled chocolate body)

Advantage: Swindle

Isn’t me owning it what really fucking counts?

also….That Dog says “fuck Hershel’s book”

Yeah, Son.

We’re also gonna cherish 10/27/07 for a while.

“Breaking Free” is Pulitzer worthy, but the voters are going to screw Herschel over for being a freshman writer.

Well, the original title was going to be:

“Breaking Free: My experiences in the Florida secondary”

However, Knowshon was considering a copyright infringement suit.

Dont be so hard on yourself. I am a huge Georgia person and I definitely dont own this book, however I do own and have read ESPN’s guide to psycho fan behavior from cover to cover several times.

O., I appreciate the notice that HW’s book exists, however that is as close to my reality as it will come…HW’s multiple realities simply do not interest me…that’s right, not even the ones from Jacksonville many years ago…

Considering all the others who spent so much time back there, it may have to be a class-action lawsuit.

by NativeSon on May 6, 2008 8:20 AM EDT reply actions

…and as a further comment, HW’s book should have been entitled “Breaking Wind; My experience with excessive bloviation”…no, I’m not bitter.

I wanna know what kind of water Herschel Walker and Bo Jackson were drinkin…..HW did run like a crazy person, like the cops were after him or someone was out to get him. Just ask Bill Bates how fun it is to tackle a crazed runaway horse. What if we adopted the same rules as the Kentucky Derby, as soon as the athlete gets injured, ya have to put him down………Bo Jackson would have been shot on the sideline after the Hip Injury……
