Bob Lobel Gets Fuzzy
Bob Lobel sues Get fuzzy comic and several print media outlets that published the unedited version of this comic. We have removed the names here to protect the Hub from frivolous litigation. Let's hope this suit actually goes through; we would love to finally separate fact from fiction when it comes to Bob Lobel rumors in Boston. Something tells us that an apology from Get Fuzzy will halt this waste of the courts' time and taxpayer money.
NANTUCKET BOB IS DEFINITELY FAIR GAME;
ANY GUY WHO CITES BOSTON DIRT DOGS AS A CREDIBLE SOURCE AND RUNS WITH A SLANDEROUS SCOOP NEEDS TO BE TREATED WITH THE SAME JOURNALISTIC INTEGRITY.
ANY GUY WHO CITES BOSTON DIRT DOGS AS A CREDIBLE SOURCE AND RUNS WITH A SLANDEROUS SCOOP NEEDS TO BE TREATED WITH THE SAME JOURNALISTIC INTEGRITY.
How many professional athlete's reputations has he smeared in the court of public opinion, with nary a retraction once the "exclusive" was proven to be a fable?
FACT:
BOB WAS ONCE FEATURED ON A NANTUCKET NECTARS BOTTLE CAP, ACKNOWLEDGING HIS PREFERRED BAR STOOL AT HIS FAVORITE WATERING HOLE.
LEAP OF FACT: LETS JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS ABOUT HIS ACTIVITIES, MOTIVES, AND EMOTIONS-MUCH LIKE A CERTAIN SPORTSCASTER ON THE BOSTON AIRWAVES.
JUST TREATING NANTUCKET BOB WITH THE SAME COURTESY THAT HE TREATS MANY OF BOSTON'S PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES ON THEIR WAY OUT THE DOOR. NO NEED TO GO BEYOND RUMOR AND INNUENDO, AND ACTUALLY CROSS CHECK YOUR SOURCES.
FACT: SPORTS FINAL IS A MUCH BETTER PROGRAM MINUS N.B.; LET'S CALL FOR HIS BENCHING.
