I love the Auerbach book - I'm sure it disappointed Rupp bashers in that Auerbach dismissed the racist tag.
that being said -
I HATE John Feinstein -
he is, to quote Charles Barkley - 'Turrable'
He is an unabashed Kentucky basher - and has utilized that schtick to no end.
Even listed as public enemy #1, listed at the top of a Kentucky Detractors List
(http://www.bigbluehistory.net/bb/detractors.html)
In going thru that information, he TOTALLY butchered about everything he could in describing game action in the books he wrote.
I can only imagine how he has as skewed other information.
Hey Feinstein - many of those who read your books also watched those games, and now have access to old films -
and you got it all wrong you knucklehead.
I read the Bobby Knight Indiana book many years ago - and could hardly imagine a more suitable paring-
Still about pi$$ my pants with glee on the feedback that Knight reduced him to tears.
I get a sick feeling to my stomach as soon as I see that gawd awful pock marked face of his on ESPN -
he has an ax to grind and its usually to stick it to Kentucky every chance he gets
John Feinstein, your a DEAD MAN !!!
dean Wormer ?! - DEAD!!!
...... WOW I feel better now, that was cathartic !!
