I think he is the kind of manager this team needed all along. Go Sox in '05. First pitch in 35 days.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YASNY Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Basically, Ozzie called it like it is. Good for him. Magglio's a little b**** and it's time he STFU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2HH Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 This is the same as Sosa always bringing up the Cubs still...both Sosa and Maggs need to talk about their new teams and forget about what they've left behind in Chicago. Oz called a spade a spade...and I'm glad he did. Enjoy the Tiglets, Magglio...aside from Percy, they've got a pitching staff full of 4.50+ ERA's throughout...good luck with that. -y2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenny Williams would be a pimple on my [butt] if I made $100 million. Why would I let him bother me?'' Think Ozzie will be getting a knock on his office door today?

Sosa has more of a right to talk about the cubs cuz that was a bigger issue. THis maggs stuff has gone too far...seriously, what is he trying to accomplish? KW never tried to make it sound worse than it was, he stated the facts so that the fans would know why more of an effort wasnt made to pursue him...otherwise the fans woulda gotten on KW for letting him go. for as little as maggs talked while he was in chicago, he sure is talking in motorcity. i liked him alot better when he kept his damn mouth shut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnthraxFan93 Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Hey OZ.. why don't you shut your mouth as well.. Who cares WTF Maggs is saying.. Worry about the Sox and the Division..not about a Det Tiger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the papers need something to write about, but this whole thing has been beaten to death. I agree Jim but this is ozzie so he's never going to be able to keep his mouth shut. He was obviously asked about Maggs comments and just had enough. I know two wrongs don't make a right but in this instance I have no problem with Ozzie shooting back at Maggs. I do agree though, lets just beat maggs ass on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winninguglyin83 Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 this story is going to fade for a few weeks -- but it will come back if Maggs gets off to a good start and then it will really come back every time Magglio comes to Chicago this season. Same thing when Sammy makes his trip to The Cell. Would have been better if Magglio had gone to the other league or at least another division. But with him in the Central, this story is going to have a long, long shelf life. Best thing the Sox can do is get ahead of the Tigers and stay there and hope Maggs doesn't hit .310 with 100 Ribbies. Otherwise ... it ain't going away and it ain't gonna be pleasant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the papers need something to write about, but this whole thing has been beaten to death. I can disagree. Maggs seems to be talking about the Sox non-stop. If this is all Ozzie's gonna say, than it's fine by me that he made his statements. Now he can move on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 It almost seems that no side wants to move on. Or at least both sides want the last word. But way to Ozzie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 I think something had to be said. The fact that someone from the White Sox organization is saying stop talking about it makes it better, in my mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilJester99 Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 Ozzie should have quoted one of my favorite movies, Reservoir Dogs.. "You keep talking like a b****, I'm going to smack you like a b****" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevHead0881 Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 (edited) When you have a guy talking s*** about you, who has created a reputation of being a solid ballplayer and a good guy, falsely labeled or not, you have to protect your own image. In this case, Magglio has continuously trashed our organization in recent months for decreasing his value, being cheap and not caring about winning. In other cases, I'd say don't respond and let the issue die. In this case, I have absolutely no problem with Ozzie doing what he did and its probably in the Sox best interests to respond to his false claims. I guess my point is, taking Maggs criticism in stride would not help our situation. And Anthrax, while you may have a point in your criticisms of Ozzie, it seems firmly clouded behind whatever vendetta you seem to have for anything Sox management does. Seriously man, what is the deal? Wait, don't answer that. Edited March 1, 2005 by KevHead0881 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 It's official. Frank is no longer "The Big Skirt". That title now belongs to the whore of Detroit , Magglio Ordonez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 (edited) QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Mar 1, 2005 -> 12:51 AM) Phil Rodgers: Guillen two-faced in ripping Ordonez What does Rogers expect? Did anyone anticipate Ozzie disagreeing with management's decision to decline arbitration based on comments uttered 7 years ago? Whether or not he believed management created a smear campaign, it's his job to spin everything pro-whitesox. f***ing dolt. Seriously, it's ridiculous. It appears no matter how Guillen addressed this issue, criticism was awaiting. Edited March 1, 2005 by Flash Tizzle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
