We switched work addresses and I had the old one stuck in mind. Sorry for the brain freeze. Don't know what I was thinking.”<br /> <br />I mention it because that ‘brain freeze’ carelessness carries into his review of this book. I got the impression that Mr. Malone was so repulsed by the idea of this book that he had a negative bias before he began reading. He seems to have an aversion to the truth if the truth is ugly. This book mostly tells about the dark side of the Yankees that the public never sees, and he doesn’t want to believe they acted as badly as we describe. <br /><br />He incorrectly states that my co-author Paul “had his day in court,” lost his case, and was then out for revenge “on a rampage.” That’s not what happened. The facts are that George Steinbrenner, a twice-convicted felon, a racist and a bigot, who established an atmosphere of fear, intimidation and bullying, and carried on illegal and duplicitous business practices, forced his players and managers to lie in their depositions and used his influence and powerful connections to get Paul’s lawsuit case thrown out BEFORE it got into a courtroom, because he was afraid of Paul’s evidence and determined to win at any cost to keep the truth away from the public. <br /><br />Mr. Malone obviously missed the part about Paul not believing in the Yankees ‘code of silence’ – repeated several times in the book – which accepts illegal and/or immoral activities and behavior as being normal. Paul wasn’t the only Yankees employee who knew about these things, but he’s the only one with enough courage to speak up about them, even knowing how unpopular that would be. Who would dare hurl accusations of wrongdoing at certain Yankee players as well as the owner? Paul did because he has evidence of their improprieties and crimes.<br /><br />I thought my editor (with 42 years of experience in editing nearly 200 published books) would be offended by Mr. Malone’s remarks about the way the book is written; instead she chuckled that he obviously didn’t read the intro which explains that it’s written in a conversational rather than literary style, and that she tried searching for his bestselling titles but came up empty. <br /><br />His comments about the lie detector test in the book are confusing. If there was no such test in this book, he would easily dismiss it as a crock of lies. Since there IS a 26-question detailed test – not a polygraph as he incorrectly says – conducted by a highly-credentialed former Detective Sergeant in Major Crime in a police dept, with more than 25 years experience in conducting more than one thousand lie detector tests -- that Paul passed 100%. Mr. Malone is not satisfied with that either, although it’s not clear why.<br /><br />Why would we make all of these allegations against the most famous baseball franchise in the world, why would we open ourselves up to the possibility of a lawsuit -- unless they were all based in truth, with witnesses and evidence, with proof that they really happened? <br /><br />I understand that he doesn’t WANT to believe it. So he hates the book. <br /><br />This book tells a serious, complicated story; Paul is a unique person, not just another gay man who was abused, albeit by ‘celebrities.’ He tells the truth and faces the consequences of doing so. <br /><br />I don’t believe that Mr. Malone read the entire book, only what he perceived to be so-called highlights. His review is misleading and irresponsible and should be disregarded. Near the beginning of this book we quote Mark Twain: “Always do right. This will satisfy some people and astonish the rest.” Mr. Malone is likely astonished.<br /><br />Gary Toushek<br />http://abusedbytheyankees.com/ Gary Toushekhttp://abusedbytheyankees.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407810925749206076.post-25846842717239567272014-09-13T04:38:56.384-04:002014-09-13T04:38:56.384-04:00I have gone through so many voice overs of Warner ...I have gone through so many voice overs of Warner Wolfs and I think it is one of the best of various commercial voice-overs of Warner Wolfs for cars these days.commercial voice overshttp://www.commercialvoiceovers.biz/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407810925749206076.post-48052335916946327282014-03-08T06:06:08.979-05:002014-03-08T06:06:08.979-05:00I really appreciate this post.
