whitesoxfan101 Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Also I'd like to point out that when somebody calls me a "***" or a "pollack" or something it doesn't bother me.....if we're friends. That's why last year when Ozzie called his friend in the dugout in NY a "homosexual child molestor", I had no beef with it. Those 2 are friends and I"m sure they were just kidding around. However I can say for sure that Mariotti and Ozzie aren't friends... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyCaucasian Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 (edited) QUOTE(Wedge @ Jun 21, 2006 -> 10:41 AM) please give us a summary if you can Basically, it's wrong to do what Ozzie did. I dont go into the clubhouse because of a long standing fued with former players. I have no interst in going in here. I am a coolumnist and not a beat writer. I can say what I want. He also said the way Ozzie acted is symptomatic of the whole organization. They have a beef with me and don't like me.

I missed this, and in this morning's Southtown, Phil Arvia is all over Ozzie -- from what I can gather, for Ozzie's political incorrectness in his tirade at the gasbag Jay: http://www.dailysouthtown.com/southtown/co...ia/x21-ard1.htm The dailysouthtown is owned by the same company as the Sun Times. They are basically the same company. Of course they would stick up for Kotex boy. He is one of their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, for those that don't know, it was Bo Jackson that nearly ripped his hand off for eating something from the players food table and started the "feud".

SoxFan76 Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 It's already been said, but I'm just backing up the opinion that *** and gay don't even mean the same thing anymore. Gay means you're just being dumb, being dorky, whatever. *** just refers to a guy acting feminine. Maybe I should just become a PC asshole and complain everytime I see a leprechaun or an Irish man drinking and/or fighting on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not fair of Marriotti to write the lies he's written about the White Sox organization for years. Does anyone remember one of the Tribune's blogs last October which summarized Marriotti's negative White Sox columns? It was hysterical and showed what a worthless writer and observer he his.

I know he's been banned since at least the 2002 season only being back once as a guest of a box owner - followed by a rumor that that box was then "closed" for 10 home games due to a "water leak".

Greg Hibbard Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Mariotti is on the score right now He is basically talking as if this is an all out war between him and the sox organization... he has ripped everyone in the organization...really pulling no punches he wants a war? give him one. Boycott the sun-times until Marriotti is removed as a columnist. This needs to happen. It's long overdue. I would personally go door to door with petitions if this could be organized effectively I want this clown run out of town by any means necessary.

Colorado Sox Fan Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 The sad thing about this is it's just what Mariotti wants. Now he gets more attention and gets to play this for all it's worth. I wish everyone would just ignore him and he could just disappear for lack of interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzie is immature, as is Marriotti. There's a long line of athletes that don't like Marriotti. Every franchise in this town hates him.

daa84 Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 to me everything mariotti said on the score can be summed up as follows: I should be able to dish out heat to the white sox, but they shouldnt be able to dish it back to me. he kept going on and on and on about physical threats that are made to him when that happened what 10 years ago?!?

Once again, the person doing the beaning -- in this case, Moronotti of Ozzie, repeatedly -- gets a pass, and the Soz when they retaliate get whacked -- in this case, by the news media. What a crock. Go, Ozzie! ETA-- and no, that doesn't mean that I or anyone else thinks that Ozzie meant to offend a particular group with his epithet. Arvia and the rest need to get over the PC crap and realize that these are jocks, baseball players, who live in a world that is 90% testosterone and adrenaline and 0% political correctness. And if Ozzie says stuff that comes across as ignornant or uninformed, DON'T QUOTE IT! Even on an internet board, people are capable of using the IGNORE feature! YES. But what I dont like, is people Realize that OZZ will talk, and will hold nothing back. Knowing this, certain reporters continue to Instigate things by asking him certain questions knowing its fanning the flames of controversy.

If you'll notice the Sox really dont have a problem with any other reporters. Just him. Why? Because he skews news against the sox and spins it against them whole other reporters and columnists teend to be more even and balanced. I loved in his interview where he talked about hos last fall he heaped praise on KW, Ozzie, and the White Sox. Well, what do you expect? If he even TRIED to put an anti-sox spin on the World Series, he would lose whatever credibility he has left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
