Security bounces O'Reilly from the Mets clubhouse! (A day after KO is welcomed.)
Steve Popper: MetsBlog: 06/16/2007
No spin zone - Mets clubhouse



While the media was crowding into the visitors locker room, outnumbering the players, one member of the media strolled in -- and was promptly turned away.

Bill O'Reilly, the Fox News screaming head, tried to enter the Mets' clubhouse, but was tossed out by security personnel -- noting that he did not have the proper credential to have clubhouse access. O'Reilly left, mumbling, "You don't have to escort us out. We're going."

What would have really fired up the combustible talk show host would have been if he had been at the stadium a day earlier when Keith Olbermann, his political counterpart and verbal sparring partner, who is welcomed openly into the clubhouse roamed around, chatting with Omar Minaya....



Mets' PR honcho Jay Horwitz, who leans openly to Olbermann's political left, immediately insisted he had nothing to do with the ousting of O'Reilly -- but don't expect Horwitz to show up on Olbermann's "Worst Person in the World," list. He's in good graces now.

2. KO would have had the proper credentials though, he's got a sports radio show
for ESPN IIRC

So he would be welcomed as the sportscaster he is :shrug:

Dildo will no doubt claim the METS are BIASED...well, the jerk needs to get himself a sports talk show!!!!!!

22. He's also not full of his own self importance.
and would never crash the locker room without credentials in the first place. :)

45. Ding, ding, ding
We have a winner. Clearly, this is a case of Olbermann following procedure and O'Reilly thinking he's better than everyone else.

Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,
Guess I'll go eat worms,
Long, thin, slimy ones; Short, fat, juicy ones,
Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy worms.

Down goes the first one, down goes the second one,
Oh how they wiggle and squirm.
Up comes the first one, up comes the second one,
Oh how they wiggle and squirm.

6. "You don't have to escort us out."
Did Billo have a mouse in his pocket? What's this "us" stuff? Does he think he's royalty?

If I had been the security chief, I would have said, "Oh yes, I do have to escort you out. In fact, why don't you turn out your pockets? I wanna be sure you didn't take a shit while you were in there."

36. Bill O sicko
After reading some excerpts from his novel, I'm not surprized he got the boot just on morals alone. He is really a pervert, and he pretendes to speak from such high moral ground. I long for the day when he clutches his chest like Falwell, and is faced with what he has done. But ....they kicked him out bacause he suks. Game over.

Which makes this even MORE juicy. How embarrassing to get kicked out with your entourage?

if Billow does because he's damned if does! And there is these, these--internets...

37. KO regularly hangs out in media booths at baseball games
most likely because he is known and respected, despite the fact that he is not technically "covering the game." As he once described it, there are all kinds of people who end up being allowed in there just because somebody with pull knows them, respects them, likes them, etc.

So it doesn't surprise me to learn that he was in the Mets' clubhouse the other day, whereas Billo was kicked out.

Do I think he's too big a guy to mention this small fact on his show?...um, actually, no. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if KO enjoyed a public gloat.

44. What makes this even sweeter is that KO's a HUGE Yankee's fan
and the Mets STILL welcomed him over Bill Orally. That's almost akin to the Red Sox welcoming KO into their dugout while turning away Rush Limbaugh.

There is no way to identify most of the *lovers. So we must identify ourselves. Any suggestions on what we can use to readily know that the person we are dealing with is of the majority?
