Beerball Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 How screwed up is the Rams organization? A writer for the Post Dispatch had an article saying that Martz (or whoever was the coach) deserved support from within the team. You shouldn't backstab the head coach said the article. The team's director of football administration left a voicemail for the columnist saying he wasn't a backstabber, he's a throat slasher...fuggin nutz. linky The rams will handle things internally. OK, how long before the OJ jokes? 5-4-3-2... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duey Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Martz must have pictures of the team owner doing it with a horse or something. I don't even think he's considered a coach on the hot seat, is he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RunTheBall Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 I'm sure there's some lawyer who would be willing to take a case where a guy threatened violence against an ANONYMOUS source. Just what we need, more frivilous lawsuits. RTB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuckincincy Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 "St. Louis Columnist Hears 'Throat Slasher' Threat on Voicemail By E&P Staff Published: September 14, 2005 11:55 AM ET NEW YORK Everyone knows reporting can be a risky business -- especially in a time of natural disasters, wars, and high-level leakers -- but it's not every day a writer hears an apparent death threat on his answering machine. Yet that's what greeted St. Louis Post-Dispatch columnist Bernie Miklasz. This is what he encountered in his voice mail: "Tell your source I'm not a backstabber." So far so good, but then the man added: "I'm a [expletive] throat slasher, and he'll know the difference before it's all said and done." The speaker was not just the usual reader, but the director of football administration with the local St. Louis Rams pro football team, Samir Sulieman. Now Rams president John Shaw says Suleiman will be reprimanded. "It's shocking that he would leave a message like that," Shaw told the Post-Dispatch on Tuesday. "It's the type of behavior that we don't condone on any level. He will be reprimanded, and it will be handled internally." Shaw declined to say what the reprimand would entail. In an Aug. 28 column, Miklasz had simply opined that Rams executives owed the team's head coach -- no matter who he was -- their support instead of back-stabbing him. This apparently inspired Suleiman's response. He was among five execs mentioned in the column. It's unclear what he meant, in his phone message, by "your source." Suleiman has worked for the Rams for six years. " http://www.editorandpublisher.com/eandp/ne...t_id=1001136532 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDH Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Pure genius. Somehow the guy thought he could leave that message on a writer's voice mail and the reporter wouldn't report it? If I were the Rams I wouldn't fire the guy for inappropriate behavior, I'd can his ass for being an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
