RX Bandits Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 ozzie denies cheating Ozzie is at once again, and for the most part he is right about how bad the NL is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Again though, he makes some comments that just don't need to be made. There's no reason to make fun of Mulder, who was injured, the way he did. Someone might want to remind Ozzie that he wasn't a HOF SS.

EvilMonkey Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Did I miss the Mulder comment? I was a bit drunk when I first read it, but I don't remember seeing him mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunkBomber Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Like always I dont really disagree with Ozzie but these are things that dont really need to be addressed in these tyrades. I could understand him getting frustrated by being accused of cheating by a few people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it's ok for Buehrle to accuse of teams/pitchers of cheating, but it's not ok for other teams to say that about us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Fireworks Man Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 "They're mad. They can't admit that a Latino kicked their [tail]." Yeah, Ozzie, that must be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwolf68 Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Ozzie's racial comments were absurd. They can't stand the fact a Latino kicked their tail? Are you kidding me? I've often wondered if Ozzie isn't playing too close to the vest the minority card and now Ozzies calling out Mark Buehrle, while seemingly always coddling Vazquez in the press may be starting to make sense. Ozzie got a job even though he lacked a lot of experience. Had Ozzie been a bench coach for 10 years or had management experience or had won a world series and was passed over for our job two years ago for a white guy with the limited experience Ozzie had I wonder if Ozzie would have thought it racism? The guy is a loose canon and must not be very bright either. That all being said, I am with Kenny Williams on Ozzie...the game needs people like Ozzie and I AM GLAD he is our manager.

He has to realize that no one is saying this stuff due to what ethnicity he is....he's the MANAGER OF THE CHICAGO WHITE SOX! Once again, he makes immature comments and forgets he has to show some professionalism. I can just imagine what would happen if someone like Joe Torre said a comment about people saying stuff about him due to being white.

Bonderman38 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 He's right..even though the Tigers thing in that article is irrelevant. Noticing tipped pitches make you a better team, not a cheating one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as the tigers claim the sox were stealing signs because Thome took four straight fastballs is lame. Last I checked, baseball is all about the hitter figuring out what the pitcher is going to throw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
