:clap: This.

Manager/coaching careers never seem to end well, but you can't discount that he did something no other manager had done in Chicago since 1917.

 

[BigP50]

Yup. It was an amazing moment in Chicago history, and he will be remembered for a very long time.

 

[Gunzaan]

Now Gunz will be mad because Ozzie is perfect and KW sucks.

Eh? I never said Ozzie is perfect. In fact, his off the field banter is just pointless and obviously his time has come to an end in Chicago.

I said that I would only be happy with this offseason if KW is fired. Ozzie certainly is a problem and not a solution but the main source of the Sox woes these past few years has been KW. His gambling mentality has fucked the club with huge contracts with 3 bums, in specific, and has depleted most of our farm system.

But keep putting words in my mouth, it's cute. Kind of like your avatar

 

[GaelicSoxFan]

Good for Ozzie. Hopefully he will find something to do in baseball that will be appreciated.

Win a World Series for a team for the first time in 88 years and got nothing but hate from the fans.

Now I want to see who the fans will blame if the Sox don't win next year.

Any fan base can put up with a sideshow as long as their team is winning.

 

[Gunzaan]

I'll offer the wisdom of 2Pac here.

What a crazy way to end the year on

 

[Gunzaan]

Ozzie Guillen traded to Florida Marlins, source says - ESPN Chicago

So, it looks to be official and he was actually traded for two minor leaguers. Too funny. I wonder when KW will trade those new players for an aging or hurt player with a huge contract. Should be funny

 

[nwfisch]

Ozzie vs Hanley Ramirez :slap: :kick:

 

[bleacherbum54]

lol I dont blame him go get that $$$ Ozzie

 

[Skills]

Just came back to say...

GOOD RIDDANCE!

Now...

Get. The. Fuck. Out.

 

[DewsSox79]

wow, he asked to be released.

 

[daddies3angels]

CHW saying he been released..not traded

 

[BigP50]

So the Sox arent getting minor leaguers?

 

[DewsSox79]

So the Sox arent getting minor leaguers?

who cares? all that matters is that he is gone.

 

[daddies3angels]

For a guy who managed the only WS team in over 100 years in Chicago is sure hated by you guys. Cub fans would gladly take a WS winning manager

 

[Everyday I'm Byfuglien]

I liked him and what he did here (win), but he has clearly wanted out for a while now and now he's got it.

I wish he still had the desire to be here, but he checked out a long time ago and it's been painfully obvious. Moving on now is fine.

 

[Uman85]

Good riddance.

 

[Uman85]

We won the World Series 6 years ago. He hasn't done anything since then. It was time for him to leave. A change of scenery was necessary.
