    As have you, David. You may want to check your facts like a good reporter before you open your mouth in public. Check back with your friend again. You're wrong. Since offering that advice, times have changed. Moot point now. Yeah, good luck with that. To Friend of the Friendless: I've...

    Calling all Sports Publishing LLC authors

    Lots of speculation from people in this thread about SP and its motives, which is natural. Unfortunately, I can not shed any more light on why they are making the offer they are, and what it means for the author's future rights as it may pertain to a purchasing company. I can say that the...

    Which is why I suggested to accept the deal being offered. Better than nothing. As for Mr. Emberson, I wish you good luck with finding a suitor for your manuscript. There will be other publishing options available soon for those interested in authoring sports books.

    125+ was the high for one year. SP did 75+ on average. Yes, that strategy failed miserably, and even the pres would admit as much. The concept of quality over quantity was discussed from time to time by editorial and presented to others, but when the top of the ladder doesn't understand quality...

    Calling all Sports Publishing LLC authors

    I know several of you posters as I have worked with you, and your complaints are legitimate. SP screwed its authors. No ifs, ands, or buts.
