HarperCollins asked me to come up with a video to help promote my football-themed compendium of lazy dick jokery, so I came up with an idea that would best entertain me. Then someone suggested one that might actually be fun to watch and the results are above. If the potential use of a book as a humiliating projectile translates to sales, I’m in for mega tycoon wash for weeks and weeks.
UPDATE: Now with correct spelling!
Thanks to Candice and Paul for helping me put this together and TheStarterWife for help with the concept. And apologies to KSK readers Jonathan and Adrian, who showed up on the first day of shooting and got books chucked at their faces, yet did not appear in the final version of the video due to general ineptitude on my part. So free books for them. And if it’s any consolation, I got a bookkake in the face as well.
Just a few more days to get in on the Photoshop/funny video/tip contest for the book. Entries go here.

Nice post. i learned so much about football. thanks for posting.
+1 one on the “who is Ape”.
Reminds me of blogkakke’s past.
/shouldn’t happen again now that he’s an author
What’s funny is that I know the wanna-be Redskins fan, and, indeed, she does look pretty good in blue and white. And, in gigantic tarps.
Explained
@Buffalojill: Yeah, you can use it.
bookkake… I JUST GOT IT!
I feel like Bustin’ Loose!
So where can one bump into the brunette Giants fan. I’d happily hate fuck her as a Redskins fan.
Ape finally does what he’s always wanted to do: Smack random Washingtonians in the face repeatedly for his own fun and profit.
I have the EXACT SAME SHIRT AS APE!!!!11!1 What are the odds! Well truthfully mine’s an XL, his looks more like petite.
I am reading my KSK while watching PTI. I immediately see an opportunity for a book to the face of Tony and today, Michael also. He is being his best hypocritical self. I will now amuse myself with all the officemates I could do this to.
Watch “busloose” on Ape’s Youtube channel. You’ll be glad you did. Go-Go music and titties: D.C. occasionally gets things right.
I’m too afraid to watch “Blackistone’s Hot”.
I just placed my order, only because I want to dry hump the blonde in the first part of the clip…..
There were script problems from Day One.
I see a slight hint of a Jeff Jarrett with downs syndrome instead of Rapaport
That’s Michael Rapaport and the condition is cri du chat, thankyaverymuch.
“Ape you look like Drew Carey with Fetal-Alcohol Syndrome.”
I’d say it leans more towards Downs than Fetal-Alcohol. Still, I was anticipating more bukkake than was originally advertised.
That was really fucking awesome. I may even buy your book!
The Wildcat offense makes the Dolphins my second favorite team. Before the Wildcat I didn’t care about the Dolphins one way or the other. I stand by this as a legal adoption due to my life long support of the option offense. Of course, I would never support the Fins over the Stillers.
I am curious to know how the “expert” rules on this one?
I didn’t see Peter King get hit!
And tell one of the guy’s his A/C unit is in serious need of a cleaning.
Ape you look like Drew Carey with Fetal-Alcohol Syndrome.
I dug the spot though, I’ll buy it.
I can’t wait to throw a copy of this book in my wife’s uncle’s face at Thanksgiving when he sits down to watch the only football he does all year and is transformed into an expert on everything that is the NFL. Any chance at getting an unabridged hardcover copy by the Holidays?
Fact: Book to the dome sells books.
Admit it. You only wrote this book so you could throw books in peoples faces with out getting arrested.
Who is Ape?
You’re like Terry Tate for fans. Except significantly less intimidating.
Nice, Ape, looking forward to the book….
I’ll buy it just because he picks on the Bills.
/needs Ralph to die stat so they move to Toronto.
StarterWife – an excellent idea.
I’m bringing mine to all Falcons games. The first time some motherfucker tries to start a “Bring back Vick” chant – KAPOW MOTHAFUCKA. Book to the schnoze
Boy, am I glad that the book is a paperback, and not say… the OED.
Going to carry around a copy of the Football Fan’s Manifesto with me all season just so I can randomly chuck it at people. Acting like a douchebag at Big Wangs and blocking the big screen? THEN THAT IS A MOTHERFUCKING BOOK TO THE FACE.
Say, what is this contest of which you speak? Can I win something cool like a Dr. Pepper mountain bike, or is it just some stupid book?
Nice spot, I like the at-field action. What are you going to sell us next, some energy supplements?
Those are the wonders of shooting on no budget.
Nice spot, I like the at-field action. What are you going to sell us next, some energy supplements? A high school football skills training video?
@ jackin’4beats:
I agree. Need a bigger book, though.
Preferably a hard back copy of the expanded version of “The Stand”
It works on so many levels!
You spelled “eighth” wrong in the second clip in the video.
I know. Fixing it right now.
You spelled “eighth” wrong in the second clip in the video.
I SAID, “YOU’VE JUST LOST YOURSELF A CUSTOMER!”
Wait, who’s “Michael Tunison” and why should I give a hoot what he wrote? I’m waiting for ape’s book.
I like the concept, but would have paid big money to see you BOOKAKKE Jason Whitlock, because that fat bastard deserves it.
Funny. I’ll prob buy the book but there are a couple problems with this little commercial:
1. Stop picking on the Bills. Seriously, everyone is just piling on these days.
2. You may want to splurge on another book titled “How to Properly Spell ‘Eighth’ in a Youtube Spot.” It’s a great read.
I’m giddy about this week’s MMQB retort. Pete held nothing back this weekend from presumed assholes on a plane to bite marks during a trip to the urologist. It’s like he’s begging for it.
Oh yeah, and I went ahead and pre-ordered mine
You shoulda made it rain books with some strippers in the background.
Laserface woulda floated them first
JaMarcus Russel could take some throwing tips from you.
Great concept. Just needs one change. You add an over-the-hill retired NFL player (preferably a kicker) with a sense of humor about himself to ask if he has any chance to make the HOF. Then, you add the tagline, “Who are you, again?” Then, hit him with the book 3 times. Boom. Pseudo-Celebrity endorsement and viral video, FTW.
//putting the MBA to work for you
//HTTR
I facebooked the shit out of her
After watching the vid on Youtube, I was surprised to see that the KSK gang is heavily involved in the German special forces. Ape, is that you as “Mark T.”? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kf36UulTVuM&NR=1
It would have been great if Ape was able to get the Pirate Parrot for some bookkake shots.
Great ad, even if Tunison’s own performance reminded me of one of those “Reno 911″ PSAs.
For the first time ever, I’m upset a book doesn’t come in hardcover.
+1 Grimey
That would have been a great concept, just Tunison in that all-blue generic-team uniform.
Fred McGriff: “This is the football book that gets results!” /points at camera
I will buy one based on this post.
/hoping an even funnier Steelers fan biased video post will be on DC Steeler Nation
/should really read the whole post before getting too excited about the word “bookkake” and posting it like it’s an original thought
Pic #5 – Ape after hearing news about the Ben last week.
I was kinda hoping someone would say something extremely blasphemous, and would be hit with multiple books. I’m a perv for bookkake.
I’d have rather seen Terry Tate bludgeoning people with a book, but book to the face wasn’t bad. On the other hand, why include women if you’re only going to film them from the neck up? Tits or GTFO.
So Ape, did you take the actors to Guapo’s for the wrap party?
Nice to see Drew Brees’s little brother getting acting work. And with throwing accuracy like that, I’d expect a call from the League before too long.
Football book to the face is funny, but football book to the groin/vagina is funnier.
btw Ape, you lost a book sale for the Buffalo sucks comment.
I used to not want this book. Now I do. Stupid successful advertising. You could give Don Draper a run for his money.
IN THE FACE!
