Post subject:  Ozzie Rips Sox fans?

“when they’re drunk” they urinate on the display outside U.S. Cellular Field that honors the 2005 World Series champions.

Later Sunday, Guillen tweeted that he wouldn’t say bad things about White Sox fans because they’ve been behind him all his career.

In a statement released by the White Sox, Guillen said, “If anyone listens to the entire conversation or reads a transcript of what I said, they will see my comments were not directed as criticism of White Sox fans.”

1. If Ozzie ripped Sox fans that piss on a world series statue, then he is right for doing so.
2. If your team needs to release an official statement clarifying what was said, you might have an issue.
3. Did Ozzie really say "...reads a Transcript..."

It's Ozzie, I think you know what you got with this guy and I have never seen the Sox have to release an official statement regarding what Ozzie said probably since he called Jay a burrito.

Now, out of nowhere, they are making Ozzie clarify what he meant and backtrack? With all the shit this guy has said over 7 or 8 years, now they need to release a statement?

Could the end of Ozzie be coming quicker than thought?

One World Series in my 58 years, be proud Oswaldo. If you're upset about fans pissing on the monuments, just think how the fans feel about being shit on by Sox management over the years.

Normally would agree, he has said worse, but the team never comes out with an official statement of "This is what he said"

Same shit...different season for Ozzie!
Reinsdorf's "sons", Kenny and Ozzie, should have had the car keys taken away during their spat last season.
2005 was lightning in a bottle.....ever since then the Kenny-Ozzie duo has been a joke.

Despite his apologies, Ozzie has always had a disrespect for Sox fans. Every time the pressure is on him he releases a tirade against them. He did it as a player and he's done it as a manager.

The Sox have always tried to portray Ozzie as beloved by fans and teammates. Neither is true.

I don't care if Ozzie likes Sox fans.

^^^

Me either, I just want results. Like it or not, The Sox have been in contention for all but one year during his tenure. Many fans would kill for this, Ozzie is one of the better managers in the league. He is frustrating with his decisions sometimes (like that Morel bunt yesterday) but at the end of the day he does a good job.

I don't really feel that he disrespected the fans anyways, the media loves to cover "Ozzie blowups" so now anytime he swears they act like he is out of control.

do you think it is really a cause and effect relationship

I could probably argue that 50% of the managers out there would have had the same results as Ozzie.

I don't think that's entirely true.

Like I said, he is one of the better managers in the game. Not in the legendary level, but in the end he will go down as a good manager. Above average might be a better word for it. All the surrounding stuff takes the focus of of his managerial skill. So many fans, especially outside of the midwest, only know that he is "crazy".

I'd agree with that. He's definitely the top half of the league. He's probably in the top 25%. He's not elite.
