May 22, 200619 yr Well on the topic of the brawl (NOT THE INTERVIEW), both Wilbon and TK believe it should be at the least 20 games.
May 22, 200619 yr After the commercial break, AJ's on. LOL AJ calls out Mariotti at the end for his article.
May 22, 200619 yr AJ told them to have Mariotti meet him in the dugout if he wants to write an article about him. LOL

May 22, 200619 yr AJ was really pissed at Mariotti, should be interesting article he writes tomorrow.
May 22, 200619 yr Mariotti got pwned by AJ. It appears to unanimous in national media that Barrett was in the wrong and A.J. played cleanly.

May 22, 200619 yr QUOTE(illinilaw08 @ May 22, 2006 -> 05:49 PM) Kornheiser was loving that comment. AJ is great TK hates Mariotti like everyone else, he loves to see that jackass get ripped.
May 22, 200619 yr Mariotti just said that AJ was mocking Zambrano's "religious beliefs" with his heart tap upward point after his homerun yesterday, and that makes him classless. I find it hilarious that AJ keeps saying he has never met Mariotti and that he has never been in the clubhouse since he has played in Chicago, because Mariotti has many opinions about AJ's attitude.
May 22, 200619 yr Hawk brought it up at Soxfest a few years ago that Mariotti is not welcome in the Sox clubhouse when he first went public with ripping that jag. I don't doubt the fact that he's never been in there. No way he has the stones to even try to go in.
May 22, 200619 yr Just a quick question: You know how Sox fans hate Mariotti because of his completely biased view against the White Sox? Does this mean that Cubs fans like Mariotti? Do anyone know of any Cubs fans that defend the man's positions? I'm just trying to figure out his "fan base".

You're annoyed as all hell with everything he writes, and you read it to get angrier at him. Every thread here is part of his fan base. You don't have to like a person to be part of his fan base.

His job is to create a stir with his commentaries. Basically it creates controversy and gets people talking. I honestly think thats what he tries to do a lot of the time.
May 22, 200619 yr QUOTE(aboz56 @ May 22, 2006 -> 05:07 PM) TK hates Mariotti like everyone else, he loves to see that jackass get ripped. the Kornheiser/Marriotti rift is well publicized. Though I have no idea what it stems from, Kornheiser has taken shots at Marriotti a couple of times on PTI, and has commented to Wilbon that he will not speak to him. A few years ago, Marriotti filled in on one episode of PTI for TK (ironically)... At the end of the show, Marriotti offered an olive branch and that the two should patch up their differences. To my knowledge, TK never acknowledged it. Kornheiser obviously knows Marriotti is full of s*** and has great dislike for him professionally. I kinda admire the fact that TK is in the media and he's willing to standup to another member of the media. You always get the feel that TK is exactly what he is on TV.... He's never a phoney... Its one reason I've always really liked him as a sportscaster.

May 22, 200619 yr QUOTE(Rowand44 @ May 22, 2006 -> 07:11 PM) I would pay a lot of money to watch AJ get his hands on Mariotti. How about a cage match? You'd better believe I'd pay per view that.
May 22, 200619 yr Here's what I heard on Tony's local show in DC: The TK/Mariotti fued started when Mariotti had his radio show. Mariotti used to take cheap shots at Tony almost to the point of accusing TK as being a local hack, which seemed alot like jealousy since Tony had the national show on ESPN. It's a pretty bad move to tick off Kornheiser. Very few people can pick apart and ridicule a person better than TK. So, it was always entertaining to hear Kornhneiser call out Mariotti every once and awhile on his local show (after ESPN dumped him)

One of my good friends is a huge Cubs fan and he always enjoyed reading mariotti's articles but i wouldn't call him a fan. However, after that article saying it was all pierzinski's fault, of course he believed it and loves him now...how ridiculous. moronotti never knows what the hell he's talking about, as long as it's exacty the opposite of what everyone wants to hear it gets attention.
May 23, 200619 yr At the end of PTI today, TK says repeatedly... marriotti is NOT my guy.... obviously, the fued continues
