Flash Tizzle Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 I'm actually looking forward to tomorrow's article. Monumental bullpen collapses coupled with a Sox victory should be entertaining reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuehrleTheAce Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Of all pro-Cubs media, I never thought I'd see the day when Moronotti would jump the fence. Is this a good thing, or another sign of the Apocalypse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 (edited) Mariotti has been slowly(and grudgingly) admitting to the readers that he now thinks the White Sox are for real. He jumped off the loveable loser bandwagon as soon as he saw signs of it steering into a wall. Now Hendry and Williams have switched identities in his mind (that of a against-the-grain genius and a bumblin-stumblin moron) and now he gleefully rips on the same people he was hailing as the next dynasty in baseball. Mariotti is always a fun and funny read, even if he is ripping on your team. but his messages in his articles are worth no merit whatsoever. The man who would be muted in every appearance on Around the Horn knows no true loyalty, and honestly does NOT understand the unique Chicago fan loyalty dynamic at all. You can tell because he constantly rips the fans as well as the players for showing up to support a bad team(Cubs, Bulls, Bears) and the lack of support for other teams(before the lockout Blackhawks and White Sox). I read his articles with a massive dose of salt anymore. Edited May 22, 2005 by kyyle23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepyWhiteSox Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 But then came the exchange of purpose pitches, which had Sox homercaster Hawk Harrelson, 63 going on 13, exacerbating matters in Internet chat rooms by saying he hoped Garcia's plunking of Lee wasn't an accident. That's one heck of a lesson to teach the kids at home, Hawkeroo. Once an idiot dickhead, always an idiot dickhead... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the same guy who threatened Hawk, a guy who is easily 20-30 years older than him. He is quite a class(less) act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bulls aren't bad and the Bears are going to be a lot better this year. The Blackhawks have been bad for years; they don't deserve attention until Dollar Bill sells them.

But they were for 7 straight years, and yet they stayed in the top 5 in attendance still. Thats a fact that baffled Mariotti, and he used to love ripping on the fans for it.

Pastime Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 (edited) As usual, Moronatti just says what people want to hear so he can sell papers. He's from Detroit - his claim to fame in Chicago is just saying what fans want to feel and read so he can somehow become "one of their very own." He isn't one of ours. Thank God. Just take him for what he is - a bandwagon-jumping schill who could care less about any Chicago team unless he can get some recognition from their success. f*** him. As for kyyle and southsider - I know both of them from another forum, and I wouldn't trust either of them as far as I could throw them. They add nothing to any forum. I think both of them are closet Cub fans. J/K, guys. Edited May 22, 2005 by Pastime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Let's see if he accurately reports that a team is one of the biggest surprises on baseball and for real, he's are a bandwagon jumper. If he continues to rip the team, he's an asshole. Nice to see Jay has so many good options here with Sox fans. No matter what he writes, most of the people here will find some childish way to rip him. Remember anyone who writes that we do not have the greatest franchise in history is a moron. Sox fans can only read a homer who tells us what we want to hear. Mommy, Mommy, Jay is saying mean things about me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mariotti is the biggest flip-flopping piece of crap in the world. If the Sox lose 4 games in a row to the Angels he will be the first one to say, "I TOLD YOU SO!" and that our team is a sham and never had a chance to begin with. He IS a moron and I can't believe you are defending the guy. This guy changes his mind more than John Kerry. :rolly Edited May 22, 2005 by Jabroni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team is different. Did YOU love the results from the 2003 or 2004 team? Would you have written the same articles in 1999 as 2005? If this team was 19 games under .500 instead of 19 game over .500 would you write the same article? His job is to write about the team. When things are going right, that's one kind of article, when it goes wrong that's another. I can' stand the whining like third graders that a commentator said something mean about the team. Every article he's either a bandwagon jumper or a moron. Sox fans only want to hear happy news. Instead of pointing out that Shingo isn't producing the same results as last season, Sox fans want a piece on how Shngo is now the worlds greatest setup man!! Mommy mommy he's saying something mean.

Jabroni Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 (edited) This is exactly what Mariotti's deal is... As usual, Moronatti just says what people want to hear so he can sell papers. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> He isn't trying to write about the facts. He's trying to stir up s***, just to sell newspapers. Even Cubs fans don't respect his worthless hide and if you lived in Chicago you would know that no one does. If you can't see that, well, I'm sorry.
