All of a sudden now it is comming out in the form of a book, instead of and article to raise awareness.

He could have put out a book about his playing career solely to tell his story, but if he spices it up and makes it more juicy, he might sell more copies. I just have a hard time swallowing this story right now.

If he had mentioned these problems sooner I might have bought it.

Now , if all of this is legit and sincere then I retract my previous statements and might even appologize. For some reason, I do not believe that this is sincere though.

Edit I am merely skeptical, that is all.
Some how I don't think this book is chasing Harry Potter off the NY Times list. The little money he is likely to receive from it is probably nothing compared to the scrutiny he's going to have to deal with.

The idea that this is fabricated as a money making ploy is - to me - completely ludicrous.
