"Sounds like the ever-overworked HR department over at ESPN has got yet another case on its hands," Kurt Allen writes, adding, "Word broke this weekend that Around the Horn contributor (and Fanhouse blogger) Jay Mariotti was arrested on a domestic violence rap after an argument with this girlfriend turned heated and she ended up with scratches and bruises. Mariotti was released on a whopping $50,000 bail. Unfortunate news, and it sounds like a bit more than a parking ticket. . . . Unfortunately for ESPN, however, while Mariotti may be unique in the seemingly universal hatred that gets spewed in his direction, he is far from the first member of the Worldwide Leader to get himself into trouble."
