yeah it does look like it could be interesting.
At first I was thinking it was a book written by Snyder...which I would never buy. I've never been a fan of his work. He isn't bad, but he doesn't do anything to be unique or good, really.
$40 for the book, FYI.

LOL.
Speaking of good books, I'm currently reading this one: http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=ti-brown_jim_abbott_imperfect_book_excerpt_040212
I grew up in the same area at the same time as Jim, and followed his HS career in the Flint Journal. Michigan Man to the core. He has a great story about a run in with Bo after he played for the USA in a game in Cuba and he met Castro. When asked by the media to compare meeting Bo to meeting Castro, he made a joke that Castro was a little warmer. When he returned to UM for his soph season, Bo was waiting to chew him out.

To answer the question, if you it was an honest question, no he did not.
This was put together by a group of former managing editors (I believe, perhaps just sports editors) of the Michigan Daily.

It wasn't an honest question. Me and exmich got a history of bantering back and forth about the last Bacon book. I'm pretty sure it was sarcasm.
