sox-r-us Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Now this is related to the Bulls, but still I think it belongs here for a while since it involves our owner Jerry and everyone's favorite friend Moronotti. Moronotti is now threatening to use the lawyer on Jerry.... :headshake http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sp...-home-headlines Here is the link to Moronotti's column for reference: http://www.suntimes.com/output/mariotti/cst-spt-jay08.html ============== This is gonna get ugly. Look for Hawk to say something about this soon on one of his broadcasts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUKE_CLEVELAND Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 With all the horses*** Moronatti writes in his columns it was only a matter of time before someone prominent teed off on his sorry ass. This should be very interesting indeed. So typical of Kotex boy though, he can dish it out but he runs to the lawyer when someone gives it back to him.

He is going to get his lawyer to fight Reinsdorf. LMAO@Kotex boy You get Jacoby, Dips***, and Pile and see if they stack up to JR's lawyers. You used your wittle radio show to fight JR, you got canned. Now you are getting called out in public. PWNED BIG TIME Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sox-r-us Posted June 9, 2005 Author Share Posted June 9, 2005 Yeah I find it ironic that he has to resort to lawyers, when he cannot back up what he writes. If he is confident that what he wrote was correct, why not simply provide the sources? I am frankly sad about how bad the journalism has become in a great great city like Chicago. We do not need dumbasses like Skip Bayless and Moronotti. Why can't we get good journalists for a change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayitaintso Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Just out of curiosity, has Moronotti ever wrote something meaningful in his journalism career? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Damn, I hate giving any kinda props to Reinsdorf. But thank god somebody finally gave that idiot windbag a dose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 When I read mariotti's column yesterday morning, I almost laughed. He is so transparent is ridiculous. Everyone knows he has a bone to pick with Reinsdorf, and yet his column not only presented "facts" that were contrary to what every other writer in Chicago had to say about the Skiles signing, but the perspective that JR blinked was also way off base from every other writer. I'd love to see mariotti take JR to court, and have his wimpy ass owned and his credibility shot to hell in the courtroom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalapse Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 QUOTE(sayitanitso @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 01:34 AM) Just out of curiosity, has Moronotti ever wrote something meaningful in his journalism career? Yes, he actually wrote a nice piece on Frank Thomas earlier this year. Stating his case for the HOF. He got mad props for backing Frank and deservedly so. That's probably the only good piece of journalism he's ever written. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sox-r-us Posted June 9, 2005 Author Share Posted June 9, 2005 I have no problem if he writes about real problems with our owners or management of any Chicago sports teams. But it is clear he just hates the Sox owner + announcer and does anything and everything to keep fueling that through his articles/interviews. Be objective....geez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do not need dumbasses like Skip Bayless and Moronotti. Why can't we get good journalists for a change? Edgar Munzel. Jerome Holtzman, Jack Griffin, Ted Damata, Cooper Rollow, Dave Condon, John Carmichael, Wendell Smith, Warren Brown, Bill Gleason ..... it's a long list of really good sports writers Chicago once had gracing the sports page. I've never been a big fan of Reinsdorf but I hope he prevails over the lying, sneaking, backstabbing in love with himself Mr. Jay Moronnotti.

Iguana Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 LOL. at the end it says... Reinsdorf will "be hearing from my lawyer." LMFAO. for what? calling our your lies!!?? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :banghead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 The quote is too good. You go JR!!! "I could care less if Jay Mariotti doesn't like me if he tells the truth," Reinsdorf said. "If he wants to say I'm dumb, he's got a pretty good case he can make for that. But when he starts to lie, I find it very, very offensive."

Princess Dye Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Mariotti calling a lawyer? what a dope. hey, i know who the first witness would be at court: Scott Skiles. then we'll see how much truth was in that sham of an article. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan562004 Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 I think I'm pretty good at putting sports and the circus that surrounds it in perspective, meaning I love to watch it for entertainment purposes but try not to get personally pissed about.... but Maranotti drives me crazy. First, he prints half truths or total B.S. He obviously writes with an agenda, and ESPN and the Sun Times lets him do it with no ramifications. I don't know anybody that likes his writings, yet he has a job at a big newspaper and gets valuable face time on ESPN... I don't usually wish for people to get fired, but I really hope at some point Sun Times and ESPN wise-up and can this dick face Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
