Kusnick ruins another good signer

AutographLegend55 · 10-03-2008, 04:33 PM

Went to instructs today and was turned down 2 times by T.J. Warren. In the parking lot, he said he would get me tomorrow, and I told him I couldn't be there. He didn't care. Kusdick has taken a kid who signed everything and was super friendly and created an asshole in his image. Way to go Josh, you really suck. What makes me laugh is that Warren hit .251 in Low A Ball while striking out 1 out of every 3 at bats with no power. Sad part is, I will now remember him as a naive moron who bought all the BS when he is out of baseball and working at Wendy's in 2 years.

Ouch!!! Calling the guy out, can't wait for the reply.

I've called him out before. It doesn't matter. Most everyone hates him. Business as usual representing mainly A Ball rejects. He will send me an email trying to justify himself, and end it with "Mahalo", but at the end of the day, still nobody will like him and he still has a roster of schmucks who he convinces of their greatness and the greed of us autograph collectors. Their is no defense for him, point blank, I collect autographs, he makes it harder, so I don't care if he saves kids from a burning orphanage, he is still an ass.

This Josh guy seems to be a major douchebag

AutographLegend55 · 10-03-2008, 05:11 PM

He didn't exist back when I began collecting. When I resumed the hobby last year, many people warned me of him. Go to the testimonial page on his website. I never heard of half of these guys. At least not all players buy his BS. Chad Blackwell and Jose Campusano are great signers whom I have had the pleasure of meeting in the past. I am sad to see Jose was released in ST and I take no pleasure, but only sadness in that. I am pulling for him. When Brantley, Warren, etc get released, I will laugh heartily.

Yeah TJ was awesome guy when he first got to lakewood, then as the season went on he became impossible....

AutographLegend55 · 10-03-2008, 05:48 PM

Gee, I wonder what made him change?

bentm · 10-03-2008, 10:11 PM

This is also partially everyone's fault who paid for Brantley. That signing reinforced Kusnick to continue doing what he does.

Sounds like Josh enjoys EDing.

Basil Shabazz · 10-04-2008, 01:04 AM

Oh he loves it alright. Seeing another thread about this will only fuel his idiocy. The real problem is the more you talk about him the more he'll get off on it. Griping about him on here only justifies what he does to himself. It's all he has. If you've ever met him you'd likely think he has never touched a woman, which he probably hasn't. To him, this is the next best thing.

I mean, if you had any fraction of a normal life while approaching 30 would you actually brainwash an 18 or 19 year old kid and tell them not to sign baseball cards for people because there is a possibility that they may try to sell them for 1.99 on eBay? We all know it isn't normal behavior, but its NEVER going to change.

The subject has been beat to death. He'll come on here and give you his "I work for the player and not the autograph collector" speech and go back the the website or telephone where he enters his credit card information to speak to a female. The world will then remain normal until someone else is upset enough to mutter his name on here.

SO why did you follow the dude in the parking lot? Just asking?

I've seen some of Kusnicks clients this season and most of them signed quantity in person and TTM. Sure he has a few whack jobs but not all of that is his doing, some is, some aint. All agencies have the same stuff when you have 30-40 clients. I know Lars Anderson and Will Middlebrooks are told by their agency to personalize or not sign more than one. The only reason anyone brings up Kusnick if because he's a member here.

Basil, I really appreciate your post, One of the best and most truthful on here and was quite entertaining, It made my day and I thank you got that!

Dont act like you have never worked a parking lot before. That is just what you do at instrux, spring training, Bowie - a vet like you should know that. If it was anybody but the "agent" you would not have asked that question.

I am still waiting for an answer - why is he on this board? Does he collect IP? TTM? WHAT DOES HE CONTRIBUTE OTHER THAN AGGRAVATION???? Or is making our lives miserable part of his "business"....sorry...his daddy's "business".....

Why do you defend him so much?
