: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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.
