Here's a few comments from fans across the country:
domestic violence charge, meaning: his wife was pissed because he didn't take out the trash, so she called the police.
This news is a downer for sure. Mariotti and Paige are my two favorite sports columnists on Around the Horn. If the charge sticks and he's off the show it will be a bummer for sure. Hopefully he didn't do what he's charged with.
Mariotti is one of those "holier than thou" clowns who preach against athletes who get into trouble....like steroids.....wife abuse...drunk driving....
He is ESPN's biggest Tiger Woods critic...
I knew that it was just a matter of time for all of that vitriol to come back and bite him in the ass.
As always...the ones who protest the loudest....are the ones whose closets full of skeletons....
It couldn't have happened to a more deserving punk.
