sleepymonkey Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I'm to the part where Tupelo has broken up and Wilco has just realeased "Being There".Did Greg Kot leave out the real reason for Tupelo breaking up on purpose of does he touch on it later in the book? Or did all of that come out after the book was published? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stewart Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 What's the real reason? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caliber66 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 The Jeff hitting on Jay's girlfriend thing? Jay had not said anything about that at the time the book came out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spawn's dad Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 why do you have to be so snarky? you know damn well Jay stole Jeff's Jeter rookie card. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sleepymonkey Posted April 2, 2007 Author Share Posted April 2, 2007 Obviously, Jeff knew that Jay knew about the girlfriend thingPretty shitty of him not to bring it up for the book.He made it seem like Jay left Tupulo because he thought they were selling out Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caliber66 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 In Jeff's defense, Jay had ten years (give or take) to say something, and didn't until a year after the book came out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jhh4321 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 why do you have to be so snarky? you know damn well Jay stole Jeff's Jeter rookie card. My sister drew pink hearts with marker all over my jeter rookie card...true story. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

welch79 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 you guys remember when baseball cards were valuable? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
socbret Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Well when I was 8 years old I measured my wealth by the amount of cards I had listed over 5 dollars in Becketts or TuffStuff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bobfrombob Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 you guys remember when baseball cards were valuable?Yes, that's when I bought them. I'm waiting for them to be worth what I paid for them again. At the current rate, that should be about 2074. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TCP Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Pfft, did Jeff ever even comment on those allegations by Farrar? Jay just seemed like a bitter old man, making up or exaggerating stories. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TCP Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 OR! Jeff is too busy still making good records to worry about Jay's stupid bullshit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
socbret Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 OR! Jeff is too busy still making good records to worry about Jay's stupid bullshit.As much as I worship the ground Jeff walks on, we all make mistakes...I'm gonna have to go with sleepymonkey.

bobbob1313 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I think "Hey Chicken" was pretty much his response. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stewart Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I think "Pieholden Suite" was pretty much his response.Me too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ction Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I think "Hey Bulldog" was pretty much his response. He didn't write that, you know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OOO Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I think forclosing on the farm because Jay wanted to build a baseball diamond for dead people was pretty much his response. I concur. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

caliber66 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I don't see what's so wrong with that logic. Jeff clearly spoke up for the Kot book. If what Jay said was totally wrong, why wouldn't he say something about it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
