No Hablo Ingles
Well the manager for the Whites Sox, Ozzie Guillen has pulled a stunt that SNL and other show have made fun of in the past.
You see the Ozzie got mad at a reporter, not too uncommon. He then began to call him names and spouted in English. Now a part of his punishment for calling Jay Marrioti names he has been ordered to attend some sensitivity training.
Well Ozzie came out and said, I don't think I can do that. I would have to learn English before I could attend the meetings.?!?!?!?!? Now that is funny. Kinda like when Sammy Sosa took an interpreter to the steroids hearing.
They both talk to the media and carry on conversations fine but when it comes to something a bit more serious, suddenly they have trouble. I can understand that in certain situation that there could be some words that they haven't heard before. But to claim that he can't do it because he can't understand the language is funny.
By the way for those of you who aren't familiar with Ozzie this isn't the first time he has insulted someone and then said he was sorry only to offend again in his apology. He seems to make habit of that. He says something and wants a do-over.
So why do the White Sox put up with it? Well they won the World Series last year and the players want to play for him. So that means the ownership doesn't want to rock the boat with its fans or its players. By the way he does have a great relationship with his players and has them ready to play hard every night.
Its just a shame when you have a good manager who can't hold his tongue to the media, cause right now he is getting more press about what kind of mouth and temper he has rather than what a great manager he is.
Oh and one more thing after telling everyone that there was no way he was going to the sensitivity training he left the press conference only to have a White Sox spokeswoman to come back and say, no he will be going. Maybe the owners are starting to put their foot down. Bout time.
