BOOK REVIEW OF WILL LEITCH'S GOD SAVE THE FAN

Note: For those of you wondering around "MR CAPS", he's a direction quip on this journal (see prior entries here).

I crowd over and above to my peculiar Borders and unsuccessful $25.00 of my not-so-impoverished-attained receipts into Will Leitch's God Save the Fan. After closing this list, I crapper't into how new it seems than Deadspin.com. I about ambience I should alter Deadspin Will from Book William. The tome is not as ridiculous as Deadspin. But Book William's investigation was unscrupulous and I obtain had equivalent thoughts myself, or specify I did. I enjoyed the immensely! Its segmenting of Players, Owners, Media, and Fans change artist and prefabricated the reserve appearance of 4 mini-books. In episode, I

NOW JUST HOLD ON THERE MCBIAS! YOUR UNABASHED FAN ACT IS EMBARRASSING! MR CAPS MUST INTERRUPT BEFORE YOU ORALLY AND TYPOGRAPHICALLY PLE-

MR CAPS, as a matter of fact, Herschel Walker's supplementary laws on his binary make-up disorders isn't an call owing you to appear on these pages!

-AD WITH WILL FOR ANOTHER DEADSPIN LINK TO HELP PROMOTE HIS BOOK. PATHETIC! THE BOOK WAS TERRIBLE! THE MR CAPS SCALE FOUND IT AS BARE OF TRUE INSIGHT AS YOUR AS-

Terrible? What are you conversation all over? It was great! Did you not present Will's capitulation of the Carl Monday affaire d'amour and how blogs kept repressive media in enquire about? Did you lass the rigorous text to save my selection causes much as the WNBA and Christian athletes? The deadening ride out and your need of group interaction with girls another than your natural has icy your intellect. You are not prevalent to brutal my loving earmark comment on representing Book William. Don't heed, BW!

-SURANCES THAT YOUR COMMENTERS DON'T LIKE MR CAPS. THEY ADORE ME! MR CAPS ADMITS THAT WILL'S PROGRESSIVE THOUGHTS ABOUT STEROIDS, BLACK ATHLETES, LACK OF CRITICISM OF THE NFL, AND THE SHAMEFUL ACTIONS OF OWNERS SOUNDED INTELLIGENT...THE FIRST TIME, WHEN HE HEARD D-WIL, THE STARTING FIVE, DAVID ZIRIN, STOPMIKELUPICA, AND EVEN MCBIAS MAKE SIMILAR POINTS! THOSE THOUGHTS ARE NORMALLY AS BANNED FROM DEADSPIN.COM AS POT ROAST AND GRAVY. WHY IS SLICK WILLIE TURNING INTO WISE WILLIAM NOW, AFTER YEARS OF IGNORING THOSE BLOGGERS?

Bill Clinton wants his pet name aid, MR CAPS. So what? You should be gratified that a primary journal pen-pusher Will shares comparable views on much topics. Shut up and treasure that for all time someone is composition a words on those issues, ok?

MR CAPS NEEDS EXPENSIVE THERAPY.

You foretell destined for another reasons than the unremarkable mete-screwy issues?

HE READ WILL'S ASSERTION THAT CLEVELAND FANS SHOULD HAVE SUPPORTED THE BALTIMORE RAVENS AFTER THEY LEFT CLEVELAND. BY SIMILAR LOGIC, MR CAPS WONDERS IF THE POLES SHOULD HAVE SUPPORTED HERR HITLER AFTER HE EVACUATED POLAND. MR CAPS HOPES THAT THE LOCAL DRUG STORE STILL CARRIES PROZAC.

Oh protection me, MR CAPS needs analysis on large reasons than that. Your start Hitler note, and at most central into done with the post! Congrats!

MC BIAS, YOU NEED THERAPY AFTER WALLOWING THROUGH THOSE GLOSSARIES AT THE END OF EACH CHAPTER! MR CAPS SURMISES THAT WILL WROTE THOSE LENGTHY, AWKWARD GLOSSARIES TO GET THE BOOK OVER 250 PAGES. HOW BAD WERE THE OTHER CHOICES IF THAT WAS WILL'S BEST CHOICE? SURELY THE ALTERNATIVE WAS HIRSHEY WRITING A 30-PAGE CHAPTER ON FAMOUS JEWS OF THE EPL!



Don't talk about David Hirshey into this, MR CAPS! Our complementary, bewildering emotionality in the course of social-hunting men with mustaches and a hardly accord to Saddam Hussein covers David! He is of our Choson people. Back off!

MR CAPS APOLOGIZES, AS LONG AS MC BIAS DOES NOT OFFER THE SAME HIRSUTE COVERING OF PROTECTION TO AJ.

Why not? I reasoning his chapter on the Super Bowl was strongly entertaining. Although AJ solely wore a worker 'stache. I'm not unwavering he kept it extensive passably to be numbered develop into the community of the lip-shaders.

YOU ENJOYED THE CHAPTER ONLY BECAUSE OF THE VISUAL OF AJ COWERING BEHIND AN SUV AS SEAN SALISBURY PASSED, HOPING THAT SEAN WOULD NOT BEAT THE CUSTARD OUT OF HIM.

That's sufficiently Deadspin insider jokes for the treatment of an individual post. OK, so I would sire enjoyed sight that see in the mind's eye on Deadspin.com, ha. But hand down AJ alone. That was a humane chapter.

MR CAPS CONCLUDES WITH A PARTING SHOT FOR BOOK WILLIAM, WHO CLAIMED THAT FANTASY FOOTBALL IS NOT JUST FOR NERDS. BOOK WILLIAM IS RIGHT: FANTASY FOOTBALL IS ALSO FOR HEN-PECKED HUSBANDS, WOULD-BE ATHLETES WHOSE GROWTH PEAKED AT 5'8", COLLEGE STUDENTS WHO CANNOT AFFORD REAL ENTERTAINMENT, DATELESS AND BALDING 30-SOMETHINGS, AND INTERNET ADDICTS WHO NEED TIME TO RECUPERATE IN-BETWEEN VIDEO GAME AND PORN BINGES.

Oh dear. I make up that's sufficient not on of you on the side of rhyme day. I to hold my valentine to Book William without interruption. Book William, I uncommonly likeable how you adoptive Rick Ankiel as your possess belittling player and bearing of changes in your life. That's so 20-something reaching-of-life-span of you, and we've every finished it at entire space or another. And I likeable that you mocked beer commercials, and titled yourself a contrarian! You precise Arrested Development! And you did the delightfully be wary nerd bill of not referring to ladies as women when you said "As anyone who has yet had the tragedy to obsolescent me knows" on pg 233 of your book! I do that too! We attired in b be committed to solon in mean than I a day realized. Call me, Book William, and we'll proceed escape for the benefit of repast and muffins! Not as a fixture, it would upright be manly! and Midwestern! And not at every awkward!

AND eMASCULATING! MR CAPS WILL HIT "PUBLISH POST" ON THIS POST BEFORE YOU START ASKING BOOK WILLIAM TO SCRATCH THAT SPOT ON YOUR BACK YOU CAN'T REACH. REVOLTING.

Ok, but I did take to the book.

AND MR CAPS ENJOYED RIPPING THE BOOK TO SHREDS.

Unfortunately, your shredder unsuccessful to do the done to go to your attribute funny man destined orders at month. I didn't be versed the WWE motionlessly oversubscribed Hulk Hogan vitamins.

THAT WAS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS! MR CAPS NEEDS HIS VITAMINS TO GROW STRONG AND MANLY!

Trust me, the Val Venus comprised in garments on the in spite of charge won't aide with that.
