southsider2k5 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 2, 2011 -> 11:46 AM) To make KW more of a sympathetic figure? I think more accurately to make Ozzie a pathetic one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 2, 2011 -> 04:46 PM) I will flat out say it. Joe Cowardly has made me much more anti-Ozzie in recent times. I really think Ozzie is behind him, which just infuriates me. I always thought Ozzie was going to Florida after this year. It stinks that the Sox might be losing some of the leverage they'd have to try and get some compensation for Ozzie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 2, 2011 -> 11:46 AM) To make KW more of a sympathetic figure? not so much sympathetic as much as someone who is trying to stay above this. It makes ozzie look like a puppet master, and cowley just spitting out whatever Ozzie says. I have said all along that KW deserves blame for some of the action(roster additions) and inaction(callups) that has gone on this year, but this crap out of Cowley is a different level altogether.

HuskyCaucasian Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Sep 2, 2011 -> 11:09 AM) Cowley on Mac & Spiegs Show right now. Should be a listen. Spiegs told Cowley he's being used by Ozzie and his credibility is being ruined by reporting only one side of this tale/making himself part of the story. Tempers flaring. and Speigel would be right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comedy is when Spiegel accused Cowley of "making stuff up", and when Cowley asked for a source or where he heard it, Speigel just went "ummm, it was a discussion". Speigel is the one with zero accountability. He just blathers and acts like a hardass and can say whatever he wants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two years ago he was saying that the Ozzie/KW thing was beyond repair, yet they continue to work together. I get where he's coming from when he says he makes up s***.

Milkman delivers Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 QUOTE (MurcieOne @ Sep 2, 2011 -> 11:24 AM) This argument has been brewing all week. Props to Speigel for having the cojones to stand up to this douche. It's seems so blatantly obvious that Cowley has whored himself out to Ozzie and his family. The man has no objectivity left and shouldn't cover the team. He's an embarrassment to the suntimes and reporting as a whole. Seriously, I never listen to sports radio and I mentioned recently that I'd never heard of Speigel, but I love this guy now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
