Ozzie on A-Rod: 'I hate hypocrites: He's full of (expletive)'


6
Vote

In a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen took some shots at A-Rod's wavering on which team he would play for in the World Baseball Classic (Dominican Republic or US).

"Alex was kissing Latino people's asses," said Guillen (who's from Venezuela). "He knew he wasn't going to play for the Dominicans; he's not a Dominican!"

"I hate hypocrites: He's full of [expletive]," Guillen told Sports Illustrated. "The Dominican team doesn't need his ass. It's the same with [Nomar] Garciaparra playing for Mexico. Garciaparra only knows Cancun because he went to visit."

"Garciaparra only knows Cancun because he went to visit" is my new favorite quote.

Guillen won't last as a manager. When you're winning you can get away with anything. But once you start losing, hot tempered controversial guys like him wear on the players quickly. Give me a calm presence like Joe Torre over Guillen any day.

Ozzie is a moron. I agree with FA (Steve). As soon as things start to go south, he will be fired. No one wants to put up with someone like that.

Nomah doesn't have time to play for Mexico. He has to learn how to play first base!

I think A-Rod is what we all like to see -- a team player. How many people recognized as one of the top players at his position would move over to another one, as A-Rod did when he joined the Yanks? He was a fine shortstop, but the Yankees had another fine shortstop (Derek Jeter), so A-Rod moved to third. I would never put a guy like that down.

You're kidding right? That's not being a team player, it was his only chace to go to the Yankees because they never would have moved Jeter. Not only that, he has people like you doting over him becasue he made the move. He loves the attention. I respect his talent, but nobody deserves $250 million to do their job, and I will never respect him for that.
