Gregg Doyel reminds us why he's the best in the biz

[Pete]

Its so weird to have a coach that everyone loves.  :popscollar:

Can you imagine, during the DOD, how adorable KSU Football could have been nationally? 

Yeah.  I don't ever remember seeing Bill in a Jordan Brand hat...

Its much more fun to be good and have the nation love us...

Ya, really re-affirms what a rough ridin' bad person Snyder is.  No coincidence that he was crap after his AC's left.  PROVE ME WRONG, BILL!

So will someone c and p so I can read this?

Doyell reacts to Kansas fans.  He'd be a goEMAW star if he registered here.

I printed out your e-mail and tinkled on it.

You must really be tough to write something like that. Let me ask, Mr. Tough Guy -- have you ever been in their shoes? And why say that about college kids?

Both ways, you people. You're the Lindsay Lohan of fan bases.

I invited him.

It is going to be so hard if this ride ends before Indy.  

It is going to be brutal.

The only thing that will make it remotely bearable is the fact that regardless of where we drop out, KU fans can't make fun of us and hurt our feelings.

Yeah, can I say again that 1988 was just the perfect storm of crappiness.

“The difference between me and Mariotti is this, he plays a tough guy on TV,” he clearly states. “I am a tough guy. To be compared to him pisses me off.”

[steve dave]

Doyel's reaction to his worst enemy getting arrested has been a true joy to watch.  Twitter so read bottom to top if you care about the order he posted:

Mariotti, arrested, in a jail cell? Today is the day I started to believe in Karma.

But seriously, AOL Fanhouse. What the hell were YOU thinking? Mariotti isn't liked, isn't trusted, isn't respected. Otherwise, great hire.

@Chilltown1491 Doesn't apply to Mariotti

Endorphins receeding. In conclusion, my condolences to Mariotti's girlfriend, and to AOL Fanhouse for hiring that bad person in the first place

Mariotti wanted Ozzie Guillen fired for calling him a NAME. What would Mariotti have written had Guillen beaten up his girlfriend?

Along with the mug shot of Mariotti, can someone find a picture of the alleged girlfriend, and her seeing-eye dog?

@vinceguerrieri Welcome. My pleasure, BELIEVE ME

Accused of beating up his girlfriend? I'll never look at Mariotti the same again. And I used to look at him as a dog turd. Now, he's looser.
18 minutes ago via TweetDeck
If my Mariotti tirade gets me fired, and I end up homeless in a cardboard box, I can say this: I'd do it all over again. Only meaner.
19 minutes ago via TweetDeck
I'm being inundated by hundreds of tweets from people begging me to lay off Mariotti. Well, 10 or 20 such tweets. Maybe five. OK ... none.

I think I'm done. I need a cigarette. Just like Mariotti's cellmate will want one in about, oh ... now.

Just a guess, but if Mariotti DID hit somebody, he used an open hand. Guy like that hasn't thrown a punch in his life.
30 minutes ago via TweetDeck
He writes strong, but ducks athletes. He screams on TV, but ducks writers. He flies around world to watch the game on press room TV. A--hole

@EricinHouston Well, thank you!

People keep asking, 'Why do you hate Mariotti?' I say, 140 characters ain't enough to explain. 140 pages might do it. If I don't use vowels
34 minutes ago via TweetDeck
If the subject of this story were an athlete, Mariotti would call for his dismissal. Just saying ...

Mariotti in jail on $50,000 bail. Mariotti in jail on $50,000 bail. Mariotti ... sorry. Please, nobody pinch me. This is the best dream ever

@NJ_StevePoliti No worries. I'm doing it to myself at the moment

And if anybody thought I MIGHT be a big enough man to let this go, sorry. I'm tiny. And Mariotti deserves everything he gets in the shower

If you're waiting for someone to rush to Mariotti's defense as a character witness, it could be a while. Grab a book. War and Peace, maybe

What's the max penalty for domestic violence in California, anyway? Please tell me it's a capital crime out there.

People like to say that this writer, or that writer, is hated. Wrong. Some of us are disliked. Mariotti? Truly hated.

I think I've said enough about Mariotti. In closing, I will say this: Jay, PLEASE drop the soap in the shower
about 1 hour ago via TweetDeck
If Jay'd been working, he'd have the alibi of all those people who saw him in locker room, interviewing players. Oh, right. Never mind
about 1 hour ago via TweetDeck
Look, there's nothing funny about domestic abuse. Except for when Mariotti is accused. And then it's absolutely hilarious.
about 1 hour ago via TweetDeck
Hell, I might just get myself arrested in L.A. so I can share a cell with sweet lil' Jay. But then, I'd have to take a number. He's so cute!
about 1 hour ago via TweetDeck
Where's the rest of the story? That, after (allegedly) hitting his girlfriend, that she then kicked Mariotti's ass for 45 minutes?
about 1 hour ago via TweetDeck
Oh to be a fly on the wall in Ozzie Guillen's house ... or to be at Guillen's pregame media briefing later today in Kansas City
about 1 hour ago via TweetDeck
Mariotti accused of hitting his girlfriend? I can't believe it. Mariotti has a girlfriend??!?!
about 1 hour ago via TweetDeck
Only a coward hits a woman. So you can't possibly believe Mariotti would hit a woman unless you believe he's a coward. Oh, wait ...
about 1 hour ago via TweetDeck
So. Jay Mariotti, huh? Where. Do. I. Be. Gin.

Doyel's twitter is pretty solid.

[michigancat]

Love his hate mail.  This one isn't particularly strong, but I love that he looks these guys up and makes fun of them.  Also love it when he references his high school baseball career.

I hope to meet you in person some day.

Doyel
That's better. Good job! Problem is, Mark, I looked you up, and you look to be about 60 years old -- and overweight. Your only shot of hurting me is if you have a heart attack and land on me.

He would fit in so well around here.

He actually said he was wrong about Frank.  He never thought he would succeed and said so when he was hired, but then last year he came around and now loves Frank.

i thought he was coming to one of our football games this year, didn't he mention it once- and ask if there were any good BBQ joints in KC?
