Jay The Joke: For All Your Jay Mariotti Mocking Needs
For skewering of our friend Jay Mariotti, quite frankly, we like to think we take a back seat to no one.

The Manly, Manly Sports Reporters
So we've been noticing something goofy going on with the coverage of the Ozzie Guillen-Jay Mariotti story; on the whole, the sturm und drang seems to be directed away from Guillen, who, after all, is Ozzie Guillen, a guy whose rantings whom we all kind of accept like the drunk uncle at Thanksgivin...

Ozzie's Rules

Why We Can't Take The White Sox Seriously
This might have something to do with the fact that they're not even the most popular team in their hometown, but we think it might be more simple than that.
