Do photo contributors get a free copy?

the problem is we're not really gonna make any money off this anyway by the time it's all said and done, and furthermore the success of the book will depend on large numbers of people buying it all at once so the sales counter hits amazon's algorithms in ways that vaults it to the top sellers and trends as a sports book. giving away copies would ultimately be detrimental to that goal.

plus you can't give them away, you have to individually buy them as the author and gift them.

we have decided the fairest thing to do is, besides giving official credit underneath each contribution, to also create a separate acknowledgements section at the beginning of the book giving thanks to everyone who was willing to offer contributions.

This will be interesting to see Fiz's view of the history of the Panthers.

Like with a State of the Union Speech will their be a Republican or Democrat response?

also the cover art is top secret and won't be released til saturday (cause i haven't finished it yet not because it's an actual secret) but all i will say is cam newton's calves and thighs are the hardest thing i've ever tried to paint

I told you the cover art should have been done by Ralph Steadman. That would have been so epic.

i could probably write an entire book about the era between polian leaving and hurney finally being promoted to GM

If you can get Gettleman to record the audio book version, I'll pay whatever you want.

The link to the book needs to be archived in this joint forever or at least until the internet burns out.
