    The cat next door isn't as much of a pussy as Mariotti...

    Who turned down whose request? Mariotti refused to talk with his co-worker or the security folks refused to protect Jay? If it's the former, that's one more reason he's a cancer on a staff. If it's the latter, wow, must have been a South Sider moonlighting at the North Side ballpark.

    Geez. That's awful for Mr. Marriotti. Must have been terrifying. I hope he brought a change of underwear.

    A great point, and impossible to decipher, given the sentence structure of the quote.

    I assumed it was Mariotti's request that was denied.

    What's the difference between Mariotti and a decent blogger these days, aside from Mariotti making tons and tons of money?

    Actually, it's not even a current trend with Mariotti. He's largely subsisted of press box/media room coverage since he arrived in Chicago.

    Man, once I started sliding deeper and deeper into the hatred for Mariotti, I can't tear myself away.
    But jeepers, I hope the Jiminy Crickets on this site can handle the negativity...
     
  11. Yup, I was referring to the press box phobia, which seems to be a recent development.
