Lying Mediot du Jour: Jay Mariotti

[QuiGon]

Anyone watching ATH...? Mariotti just quoted Belichick from the recent Boston Globe article saying that Belichick said (doing my best to remember): "I have never ever been associated with any videotaping ever in my life."

Clearly, that is not what Belichick said in his statement to Mike Reiss. Must be nice to be able to make up complete fabrications and not be called out on it.

iam slowly trying to get ESPN out of my system. suggest you do the same. They make you watch the channel and get addicted to it even though you know its crap.

 

[upstater1]

Oh come on, that's pure comedy.

 

[BadMoFo]

Pretty sure he was joking about that.

No I saw it, I didn't see any joking on his part. Just another way the media can spin a story any way they want, makes me ill.

ESPN Especially Stupid Pompous Nonsense

Yeah, I made the mistake of turning on 1st and 10...which is the WORST show on ESPN anyway...but I bit on the Patriots tag they threw out...ugh im a sucker...anyway, we all know what a Dbag Skip Bayless is but the guy sitting across from him said something to the effect of:

"isnt it interesting that the one time the Pats dont have the advantages of the video signals, they lost the SB." I COULDNT BELIEVE IT! I almost threw my remote at the TV...UM EXCUSE ME, BUT WHERE WERE YOU WHEN WE WON 18 STRAIGHT GAMES THIS SEASON. AND IT WAS NO CUPCAKE SEASON! YEAH, WITHOUT "CHEATING" we ONLY had the best regular season in NFL HISTORY...played every elite team in the league this year besides GB. AND BEAT THEM. we ONLY beat two fantastic teams in the playoffs and made it within a drive of a SB. The SB could have been ours by one or two other plays made. That infuriated me! So even though I boycotted ESPN months ago, I made a mistake by peeking and was again punished for my poor decision. ESPN...never again.

 

[patriotspride]

I'm so glad i don't watch the ESPN garbage anymore .i don't miss it and my blood pressure is better off for it.

 

[IcyPatriot]

Only watch ESPN for the NFL game ... that's it.

 

[PatsFan24]

keep it on nfl network, much better

Jay Mariotti is a piece of flypaper. He is employed by a Chicago paper and will write a negative article on the Chicago White Sox, and then refuse to go in the lockeroom. He is afraid to go into the White Sox clubhouse, for real. Anyone know of any sports writer in America who is afraid of entering a clubhouse for a team that they cover?
