I urge you to go and post a glowing review of that nice Mr. Yellon's (who is incredibly smart and knowledgeable) super book on Amazon.

Done.

Would do again.

That BCB writer who showed up to defend Al is in for a nice holiday bonus: some extra LSAs being deposited into his account.

Alvin's got his minions writing 5-star reviews. What an insecure little turd.

Also, as far as I can make out, my review - which was scathing but polite - has been deleted.
Your toilet's broken, Dave, but I fixed it.

Yeah, I haven't seen it. I also notice a dramatic uptick in negative reviews being "not helpful".

It never ceases to amaze me how he and his loser readers can't process anything beyond groupthink. Maybe he should run for office.

I will now post the actual chapter titles from Al's shameless cash grab book.

QuoteForeword by Pat Hughes
Introduction: A World Series on Chicago's North Side
Chapter 1: How the Cubs Got Here
Chapter 2: One Fan's Journey
Chapter 3: Spring Training: The Preparation, the Sunshine, the Fun of March
Chapter 4: April: Roaring Ahead of Everyone
Chapter 5: May: Continuing the Roar
Chapter 6: June: Swoon
Chapter 7: July: Righting the Ship
Interlude [editor's note: the fuck?]
Chapter 8: August: Winning, and Winning, and Winning
Chapter 9: September: All the Ducks in a Row
Chapter 10: October: The Postseason to Remember
Epilogue: What This All Means
Acknowledgments

Even the chapter titles are objectively terrible.  Ahh yes, my friends.  Can't wait for the Preparation, the Sunshine, the Fun of March!  See you in Mesa!

Do you guys remember May, when the Cubs Continued the Roar?  I'll never forget!

Good thing Alvin has the dignity to not let his insecurities show.

Might that violate Amazon's terms of service, perhaps?

A little ironic.  He complains about negative reviews of his book from people whom he believes haven't read his book.  Then he asks people to write favorable reviews even if they haven't read the book.

Only ironic if you aren't familiar with Al, considering that is the most Yellon move of all time.
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015

I miss the old days, when he'd direct his followers to mail envelopes stuffed with bologna to his post office box.

Folks, we regret to inform you that Al is back on his bullshit. Kyle Schwarber raising money for charity is actually bad, you see. He should have waited for the offseason, glommed on to someone else's cause, designed a hideous T-shirt, and pocketed part of the proceeds for himself. This isn't hard, people.

Reddit tells me that Yellon has penned a compelling case for why the Cubs should extend Rizzo now, rather than after the 2021 season, seeing as how they have control over him until then.

The word "compelling" may have been used in a hyperbolic fashion. I think Reddit shares most peoples' opinions about Al's viewpoint.
