Spec is my guess.

WTF am I being thrown under the bus?

Everyone of my comments to Richard Justice has been posted and deleted. He post my comments and then deletes them like no one saw it.

I hear that poster, vincent and Dick will all be very happy together....

Sorry, Mea Culpa. In my defense, he used your smilie. The way the original post was stated, it sounded like this was from a while back.

Its fun though.

Per request. Its not my best effort, I left my laptop with Photoshop on it at work. MS paint really sucks compared to PS.

Everyone is waiting to hear what Wild Bill Clinton has to say and the best thread on the board is about Dick. What is it with that guy?

[GlassHalfFull]

Just to add more fuel to the fire. He had a blog about how Spike Dykes is a great coach. Here is an exchange between a poster and Dick

Leach blows a game every year....usually against a nobody like Okie State. Ever notice that for all his "success" no other school makes any effort to get him. Probably bc he is always "thirsty"..know what I mean?...and I think you do...

PS You do know that with his players Leach is generally grump and yells all the time dont you? Surely that bothers you...ort is it ok because he talks to you?


[College coaches can get away with it. Wayne Graham has won a game or two, and no one yells more than him.--Richard]

It just means page 8 is almost used up and page 9 close at hand. This post might begin page 9, dunno.

For future reference if you hit the next page and get a repeat of the previous one there are no new posts to read. Personally, I blame Bill.

He didn't really mention TC, but made all kinds of excuses of why Lombardi and Parcells would yell at their players. He went on to talk smack about Gibbs and why he doesn't like him,

I emailed the show a couple of times and in one I told "Nancy Boy to shut the h*ll up"

[Vinnie]

I liked the e-mail John read that said Dickie's just upset Gibbs wouldn't sit naked with him in a sauna.

[Specnatz]

Talk about big time editing .. he deleted everything from the 26th yesterday and now today he has re-added some of the post cause he realized how it looked. What a loser.

[hadaad]

What he needs is a big scary guy standing behind him who just stands there until the "Post" button is clicked. Then the guy reads the post. If it's up to usual standards, RJ gets a slap upside the back of the head and told to edit. Repeat until something resembling sense comes out.

If nothing else, it would be fun to see.

LOL probably wasn't room with YKW and the bottle of tequilla

OH JEN!! LMAO

The reality is with the advent of blogs and web 2.0, you're going to get smart, funny, passionate fans who write about their teams with more more fervor and information than a lot of the journalists.

Steph is one of those fans. The death knell of bad journalists is here...why read the "mainstream" press that has been resting on its laurels (and haunches) for years, churning out droll and complacent drivel, when we fans now have other information choices?

Richard, you're of the "boom goes the dynamite" ilk...you try way too hard and fall horribly flat. 2.0 is here and you're in its (and our) rearview.

BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE!

and for some that haven't seen the reference

I feel bad for the guy..or maybe not because I am laughing

Your "reference" may be the most uncomfortable thing I've ever watched.

They have an update on him at ,awfulannouncing.com you have to thumb through about three pages now since you can't url the particular page, seems he working in, of all places, Wacko, Tx.

Another little tidbit on the site was the Chicago Sun-Times "fond farewell" to departing home team basher Jay Mariotti. I wish a similar article would be in the Chron tomorrow,

Release from the Sun-Times

August 27, 2008

Chicago Sun-Times Editor in Chief Michael Cooke issued the following statement today regarding the resignation of sports columnist Jay Mariotti:

The Chicago Sun-Times had the best sports section in the city before Jay Mariotti came to town -- that's why he signed up with us -- and his departure does not change that.

We still have the stars -- respected veterans such as Rick Telander, fiery newcomers such as Greg Couch, quirky voices like Carol Slezak, not to mention seasoned beat reporters tracking the Cubs and White Sox toward their eventual collision in the World Series, plus the Bears, the Bulls, the Blackhawks, and all the other teams that make Chicago the sports center of the nation. We could have a World Series in Chicago in a couple of months ... talk about excitement!

The Chicago Sun-Times and suntimes.com will continue to have the scores and the stories before anyone else, anywhere, and the deepest and most comprehensive stats and standings. We wish Jay well and will miss him -- not personally, of course -- but in the sense of noticing he is no longer here, at least for a few days.

****

A paper, like a sports franchise, is something that moves into the future. Stars come and stars go, but the Sun-Times sports section was, is and will continue to be the best in the city.
Hahahaha. With that one jab, Michael Cooke just became my hero. It's sad that his industry is dying, and that Mariotti wins out in the end because he'll always have an opportunity to spew his nonsense at ESPN, but that's just downright hilarious. Bitter much?

Update: Mariotti is still doing ATH from the CS-T newsroom. They must not hate him THAT much....

"All these celebrations in and around Chicago. What's going on today?"- Jay Mariotti

Someone posted a link to this article on Justice's blog

Sox on Mariotti's split: 'It's about time'
REACTION | The self-proclaimed tough-guy columnist never faced his targets, and that's the main reason he was considered a coward in clubhouses

August 28, 2008Recommend (107)

BY CHRIS DE LUCA cdeluca@suntimes.com
BALTIMORE -- Word of Jay Mariotti's split with the Chicago Sun-Times reached the White Sox' clubhouse minutes after their victory Tuesday night against the Baltimore Orioles, and the reaction could be heard outside.

Once again, Mariotti should've been there to witness it first-hand.

Justice's reply was ouch

[Wolf]

It wouldn't suprise me if something was done on his blog that would have him approve the comments before they are posted.


he is taking a well deserve comment beating..


What gets me is TC put out straight forward facts for discussion and he helped turn in into a circus (it was a circus with the blog) and to me. I am not from Houston and have never been there but I can't believe that He is a (don't want to offend anyone) "sports writer" .. and honestly feel he wasted his money on that college education to get a piece of paper..

I guess when there is no competition,one doesn't have to try
