Ozzie Guillen on Magglio Ordonez

Quote:

''Magglio is full of [bleep],'' Guillen said. ''Apologize to who? I don't have to apologize to anybody because, first of all, he's the first one to name me. He said I was pushing him to play [last season], and I was responsible. Don't make me feel like I was the bad guy in this.''

''He never was my friend because I don't know him,'' Guillen said. ''If he thinks what I said hurt him, I don't give a [bleep]. I didn't come here to make friends, I came here to win games. I've got a lot of friends. If Magglio doesn't want to be my friend, I'm not going to lose sleep at night.''

''He's a piece of [bleep],'' Guillen said. ''He's another Venezuelan [bleep]. [Bleep] him. He thinks he's got an enemy? No, he's got a big one. He knows I can [bleep] him over in a lot of different ways. ''He better shut the [bleep] up and just play for the Detroit Tigers. Why do I have to go over and even apologize to him? Who the [bleep] is Magglio Ordonez? What did he ever do for me? He didn't do [bleep] for me. But he said I'm his enemy -- he knows me. Tell him he knows me, and he can take it how he wants to take it.

''Did he play good for me? Yes, he did. Did he play hard for me? Yes, he did. He might like me. He might be sensitive of me. He might be jealous of me, I don't know why. But saying I'm his enemy, he hates me, I could care less what that [bleep] thinks. I don't give a [bleep] what he does with the rest of his life. He [bleep] with the wrong guy, and he knows that, too. He knows for a fact that he [bleep] with the wrong people.''

Story Here

I've always said that Ozzie is all class..... :)

Maggs was my favorite player while he was a member of the White Sox. But, man, he's got to MOVE ON!!

And Ozzie is just nuts. But he's managing the bullpen based on matchups, not set roles, so he's a much better manager than you'd think from all of the stupid crap he says.

As long as the team wins 12 out of every 16 Ozzie can say whatever he wants.

I hope this will show up in MP3 format at some point. My Lee Elia tirade could use a buddy on my hard drive.

What did Magglio say? Obviously it hit a nerve.

Yeah, I must have missed this story, too.

SI

Well the story didn't involve the Yankees, Mets, Red Sox, or Dodgers, so the national media is slow to pick up on it.

Ozzie's on fire this year. 13-4, I love it :D

He said Ozzie was his enemy.

Just looking at what Guillen says about being able to [bleep] Mags over I'd be willing to bet someone knows someone else was juicing.

I was thinking the same thing when I read that comment....
