Ozzie Guillen Starting to Lose it Again

I love writing about Ozzie Guillen.

Earlier this season the new Marlins manager had he team playing week.  Well, the bottom has fallen out and I don't know if it's the heat or what, buy ole Ozzie is starting to get a bit testy.

He was Ozzie after his team lost a 13-12 extra inning affair the other night.

“Make sure Miami people don’t [expletive] Bell,” Guillen said angrily to reporters, but loud enough for players, including Bell and starting pitcher Anibal Sanchez, in the hushed clubhouse to hear. “Bell gave up two runs. How about the rest of the [expletives] 10 or 12 runs they scored? That’s why this [expletive] game is not [expletive] fair. It’s Ozzie talking [expletive]? No. It’s Ozzie talking the truth, about how [expletive] we were before that [expletive] inning. Put that [expletive] down!”

Ozzie Guillen Vows He is Done With Twitter

Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen said he’s done with Twitter.

The outspoken 48-year old explained why before Thursday’s game against the Braves. “I hate Twitter. Everybody who follows me can [expletive] their pants,” Guillen said.

“Don’t follow me anymore. It’s a stupid thing. I never made any money on that. When you speak Spanish, you speak Spanish. When you speak English [people say] ‘you don’t know how to spell English.’ Get a real job. Get a life. I don’t make money out of that. I’m done.”

“I’m not Kim Kardashian. I don’t sell anything in my life to have a Twitter. I tweeted yesterday about my friend dying. I hadn’t tweeted in three months. I don’t tweet anymore. Follow somebody else.

Were people on Twitter sending Guillen nasty messages? “People are nasty,” Guillen said.
Guillen had over 200,000 followers on Twitter.

Now he can get down to managing the Marlins.

Ozzie Guillen Gets Hit By a Foul Ball and More...

Ozzie Guillen is one of my favorite people in baseball.  He's not a great manager, but he's ok.  What I really love about him is his desire to win and he's never afraid to express himself.  His conversations with talkshow host Mike North are a thing of beauty.

Yesterday Ozzie's White Sox lost a game they should've won and to make it even worse he was hit in the head by a foul ball.  Enjoy...
