Winnin Ugly Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 I was very excited when he became the Sox mgr since he was my fav player as a kid.. I got to meet him last year at a club in downtown Chicago he is such an awesome guy..

Winnin Ugly Posted June 22, 2005 Author Share Posted June 22, 2005 (edited) Larussa should have won more with the talent he had on his ballclub... Lopez was a loser anyone who doesnt put his own player in the HOF shouldn't even be consider.. If Mags and Frank didnt get hurt last and he had a decent 5th starter last year team would won over 90 games It looks like this season we might win over 100 games Edited June 22, 2005 by Winnin Ugly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevHead0881 Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Yah, and we essentially ran LaRussa out of town. I try not to think about what the fans think about the manager. I look at the results. While I wouldn't say Ozzie is the best we've had, I think he's done a fine job...regardless of what some say around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moochpuppy Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 22, 2005 -> 02:03 PM) All but Tanner and Lamont. I'll give you Tanner but Lamont had a .551 winning percentage in 3 plus years as manager. He never finished with a losing record and was canned in '95 after starting 11-20. Lamont was shafted!

kev211 Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 First of all its way to early to judge ozzie, and there a plenty of managers that have done better then him so far on the southside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winnin Ugly Posted June 22, 2005 Author Share Posted June 22, 2005 Steff- maybe you didnt listen to the Score back than when Lamont was the Mgr. A caller even made a song about Lamont be calling sleepin Gene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevHead0881 Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Sleepy or not, Lamont was blah. Hence why he is yet to find another managing job since getting canned by the Pirates 5 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
