Ozzie Guillen rant after Sat. game...just what we need!

[Chip R]

I like Ozzie. He'll probably get fired in a few years for having a big mouth but he is getting results. I especially like his feelings about his cross-town rivals. :lol;

Someone on this board (Chip?) once said that Ozzie's mouth will eventually get him fired. I agree. But unless I missed something, this particular rant seems pretty benign.

No offense intended, but that is a black/white arguement.

When I was a television director, there were times when a good yell-fest woke up my crew. People tend to drift towards complacency. That leads to mental mistakes.

Now if it were a regular occurance then I would agree. It would be yelling for the sake of yelling. But even adults need to be shocked every now and then.

It was, youir team loses and extra inning game on a HR and your pitcher made one of the errors that bother you yet you scream like a dad whose dinner wasn't on the table at 5:30.

I went through the game log and it's hardly like the WS were the bad news bears in that game.

Short, fierce flames burn out quickly... Dallas Green much?
