  • Tony was an attention whore, and sometimes he did some okay stuff maybe..

    Kinda like throwing a rock from the top of the 40' cliff, and hitting a lone tree trunk.

    He always reminded me of Tom Melody of the BJ - "honest coverage" was the term used

    for most of the time manufacturing negative slants on sports.

    Neither one ever once impressed me. well, Melody did once. I think it was a story

    about the Olympics or something. Grossi - I never liked reading his stuff

    Neither one was ever worth the time of day. Dissing on Learner, especially at this point,

    is dumb.

  • You think that maybe Lerner, being a billionaire and such, might, just might know the owner of the Plain Dealer, and have a little influence? LMAO.

    Tom Melody was a sports columnist. His job was to give his opinions. And he did.

    His job is more comparable to Terry Pluto's now at the PD. (In fact, Pluto replaced Tom Melody at the ABJ as primary columnist when Melody retired)

    Grossi was a beat reporter. His job was to report.

    Perhaps he would be better as a columnist.

    You are correct, of course. It's their common attitude that annoyed me.

  • yeah the fans for the NY teams do suck on the most part.

    but you don't see a reporter being reassigned because he calls hank steinbrenner lazy. oh and of course there is tabloid media here because there is actual sleeze news and gossip to report about since it's the biggest city in the world. what other media standard would you hold yourself to, butte, montana? GTFO. yeah ask a reporter what his dream job would be, being the anchorman for NY nightly news or the anchor for detroit? ha!!

    yeah NY has it's ups and downs (over population, over-priced housing, ungodly taxes) and i'd much rather be back in ohio. one day i will be BUT don't hate on NY. i find most people hate on it because they can't deal with it. that's why they say "if you can make it here you can make it anywhere." and the people that can't move back to pittsburgh.

    Spent a couple years of some Cinderalla Liberties back when the forty duece district was poppin'. Kind of liked the inn-your-face attitudes of the natives.

    Kind of wish my pops would have stayed in the city after he came through Ellis Island. Instead emigrated to Louisville where he busted his humble Irish ass

    for forty years with the L&N railroad. Fuggetaboutit

    They both probably would have been proud to have annoyed you. That may have been their aim.

    ( I know it was for Melody as he lived in the same town I did, and was a pretty good friend of another attorney I shared office space with)

  • I'd met Melody in person. Seemed like a decent guy. I think he just laughed when I told him some of his negative stuff

    was very annoying. LOL

    Apparently, you are right again. GGG
