    If McGruff the Crime Dog did PSA's about date rape drugs back in 1985, this is what one of the stills would have looked like.

    Bull and Bear is a perfect name for a Mariotti hangout. He's full of bullshit and he's impossible to bear!

    I bet this was followed by one of those moments where Mariotti thought someone was saying "hi" to him so he waved back, but the person was actually waving to the guy behind Mariotti, so he had to act like he was stretching so no one would realize.

    But one guy saw it all happen and felt really uncomfortable about the whole thing.

    I think he saw me take this pic but I acted like I was texting someone.

    In certain circles, this move is known as the "Pete Townshend".

    He was super creepy at the Final Four in Detroit last spring. And he was everywhere.

    His ubiquity was rivaled only by his aloneness.

    In reply to Sports Fella "Suspended" Over Angry Tweets, Not Allowed To Watch TV, Talk On Phone For Two Weeks
    As an avid WEEI listener (my job is boring as shit, you see) a little background on this rivalry:

    A while back Ordway, Smerlas and DeOssie met Simmons at a conference. They had a pretty good conversation, and supposedly exchanged mutual admiration for their work. All appeared to be fine.

    A few weeks back, Simmons wrote somewhere that WEEI is only around because they built a monopoly on the sports radio market and have never had any competitors (which is untrue), and that their on-air personalities are lacking and past their prime (which may be true).

    Simmons then went on the morning show Dennis and Callahan and they questioned him on this statement. Being the sissy he is Simmons lauded their work and said he was only talking about the afternoon guys (Ordway & company).

    Being that in their only conversation in the past Simmons told these guys how much he liked their work, The Big Show wanted an explanation, and asked on-air for Simmons to appear on their show. Simmons initially agreed, then ended up (cowardly) repeatedly canceling on the day he was supposed to appear. Ordway called him out on this and this is when these Twitter "attacks" appeared.

    Bottom line: Whenever Simmons is actually questioned on the crap he comes out with he shrinks into his shell and reverts to Twitter attacks like a 13 year old girl. Lame, Simmons. Lame.

    He was going to go with "Liberte, Egalite, Fraternite," but focus groups have been down on the French ever since the Thierry Henry incident.
