We'll launch into the weekend with a couple bits of news on the book.
*First, the problems with Amazon have been resolved. Books are shipping, the order page is correct, etc.
*Second, if you get Sporting News Radio in your area, or on Sirius, or like to listen online, I'll be on the air to talk about the book and Longhorns football at around 4:20 PM Central tomorrow.
*Third, Austin-area readers can join me, Chip Brown, and Geoff Ketchum at BookPeople (6th and Lamar) at 7:00 PM on Wednesday, August 15th. We'll talk a bit about the book and the upcoming season before opening the floor to questions.
And last - for those who haven't laid eyes on the book yet, after the jump I've got the first two pages of my interview with Duane Akina and Larry MacDuff.

Question
Peter, first off, love the book, it was a great way to spend a couple of hours on a plane and I'm sure I'll refer back to it often during the season. I also liked how you spread the love to Orson and T. Kyle King.
Second, whatever happened to that list of Top 40 Longhorn players (or whatever number it was) that you were working on? Was that not for the book? Just curious...

Actually
That Top 50 list just got published in this month's "Horns Illustrated." I picked up a copy yesterday. No text - just the list we put together. I'll write something up on it on Monday.

Just wanted to say that I loved the book. I picked up my copy at BookPeople. It was on their new arrival wall. I also really liked the love for the bloggers. I hope it takes off and I can pick one up every year.

What about ESPN Radio Austin?
Seeing as how you're interviewing with Chip Brown and co. at BookPeople, you gonna have chance to promote the book on the ESPN afternoon show?
Looking forward to receiving mine soon.

My wife told me my copy of the book showed up a couple of days before coming home from Saudi. I think I'll save reading it until I'm on the plane back to the Middle East, but I'm not sure if I can actually wait that long. I flipped through it and it looks great. Looking forward to this season!!!
