re: Everything Matters in Baseball: The Skip Bertman Story

I think that you need to put it all within the proper perspective. Guilbeau has had a lot of criticisms of LSU over the years, but one thing that he definitely feels that LSU has gotten correct over that time period is the hiring of and supporting Skip Bertman and his program

I'm not sure you could find one person in the entire world that knows a thing about college baseball that would feel like LSU didn't get it correct with Skip. GG doesn't deserve any praise for believing in Skip.

Of course, I'm sure there were morons like Nicolas, who proclaimed the season was over as soon as skip dropped a midweek game. But we don't really count those people.

I wish Bruce Hunter could have written this book. I don’t like guys like GG and Tim Brando. For some reasons that I don’t know about, Guilbeau and Brando think very highly of themselves in order to criticize LSU. Brando was a play by play guy. Hawthorne mentored Brando. Big fricking deal ! Brando hasn’t done anything special with his life except suck Dale Browns dick.

Think of it as supporting skip not the author

Except you’re literally supporting the author and not Skip when you buy a book written by that author. I wouldn’t buy a book written by Guilbeau if they gave me $5,000 back
