He doesn't cork off in public like Ricciardi does, but I've heard that messing with him when he's angry is asking for trouble. He may well have broken that door. But, as with all things Chass, does it matter? Who cares? What does it have to do with anything?

You got me. I was one of those folks making Moby Dick jokes about you. But I see you don't hate the man and you don't want his job. You just don't want to write for a living in a world when a columnist for the so-called paper of record can cite an email from someone as fact. If I emailed Maureen Dowd tonight and told her that Bush & Rice were having an affair two years ago, you think she'd print it? I say it's so, so it must be true. Oh, and I live in the U.S., so you don't need verify it before publication. Just cite me and it'll be OK. Sheesh. OK, Seth. You got me.

"Epstein broke the door of the hotel with a kick..." then, brandishing a machete, chased the staff through the hallways and out into the streets setting cars afire with molotov cocktails. The young GM's rage knew no bounds, his fury could not be contained. And Boy Theo's ferocious tantrums became the stuff of Red Sox Nation legends. Seriously, Epstein seems like he may be a rather gifted person in any number of areas, but doesn't have the outward demeanor of a vandal. JP Riccardi, GM of the Toronto Blue Jays, would seem to me more likely culprit to kick a door down. “Who IS Sergio Maltez?!?”
