How White Sox Pitcher Freddy Garcia really feels about the Cubs
Here is a video of Freddy Garcia (looking a bit over served) at SoxFest this year after being egged on by fans letting everyone know how he feels about the Cubs
over 2 years ago

Just saw this clip.
Man, Freddy is HAMMERED. He looks like he’s about to fall down. I can’t even get mad about what he said because he’s so freakin’ sh*tfaced. (And I’ve always kinda liked Freddy.)
He is only Human
These are typical words coming from a typical drunken person, nothing personnel should be taken. He did not show any signs of being violent but at the same time did not show any signs of having a brain.
Anybody who pays attention to "Sweaty Freddy" needs to get a grip...

I've heard
various rumors about Garcia’s propensity for a drink. I think that he and Guillen are frequent drinking buddies back in Venezuela.

Frequent drinking buddies..I thought they were family
I thought he was married to Guillens daughter or cousin or something like that.

Cubbie-Tim, aka Mr. English Grammar
So when you stated this:
“didnd Dr Crawdad say that bashing of the Cubs didnt happen at their Fan Fest while he took shots at the Cub fans about it happening?”
So I guess you admit Mr. English Grammar that that part of your question is bullshit, as you no doubt know now that I never said that. What would you call that question then?
I never claimed “that bashing of the Cubs didn’t happen at (SoxFest)” so your point?

ok, so if it happens at Sox Fest, which I assume you are admitting to
then why would you feel the need to come to a Cubs blog and post about it happening towards the Sox at Cubs Fest?

Thank you.
I’ve pulled the plug on attempts to discuss/argue/debate/go round and round with “Cubbie-Tim” here.
I’ve literally spent hours directly answering his questions, only to have him say, ‘hey, %&$$# you don’t answer.’ So, I’m telling him if he wants to debate me, he can email me about it. He doesn’t want to waste his “sent box” but he’s more than willing to fill BCB. Fine.

DrC
you are knowledgable, but you take anything said as personal, and in the process you get more than just me to react in a neagative way to you.
I asked a question, and you not only flipped about it, but went as far as to imply something that was wrong to do on many levels. IIRC asking a question about something as small as baseball doesnt deserve what this turned into. I have also more than once given you facts, that you dismiss, so lets just let it be, move on, and stop the kid games.

A girl I used to date a few years back
was once the subject of Freddy’s clumsy drunken advances at Le Passage (I can’t really fault him for trying, she was six feet tall, gorgeous, and had a sexy South African accent).
He told her he was a starting pitcher for the White Sox, but she was unimpressed. Her reply was priceless: “Maybe you should learn to speak English, then.”

Who cares if he's a Cubs fan? This is a football forum! He is a PACKER fan as well. So, from now until March, I’m sure he’ll dedicate a lot of his time here. In late March, then we can be enemies during the baseball season. Besides, the Cubs have perhaps the most loyal baseball fanbase in the country. You have to respect that.

How do you show you don't care?
By clicking into and posting in this discussion that you allegedly don’t care about?
25 or so comments here about Garcia’s stupid drunken remarks and 12 or more by Cubbie fans in the ChicagoBreakingSports comments section. Interesting to see all of this disinterest.
Best comment there?
I’m not sure which is more trashy: Freddy swaying back and forth dropping drunken (or dope-induced) f-bombs and mother f-bombs; or the Tribune thinking this is an appropriate video to showcase on their website.

I care. Deeply.
I have cried non-stop since this video has been posted. I wish you could hold me in a sweaty embrace like you did on those warm summer nights.
Get a grip mate.
The title of the post is How White Sox Pitcher Freddy Garcia really feels about the Cubs. Maybe we all clicked on it in hope of him saying he loves the Cubbies? Maybe we clicked in hope he’d finally break his legendary silence in regards to the grey or blue road jersey?
In all seriousness, I care about very few things in life and the majority of it I won’t find on the internet. Stop trying to take the high moral ground just because a drunk White Sox got caught making an ass of himself.
"Keep pushin till it's understood,
And these badlands start treating us good."
Speaking of the alleged high ground, how's the view?
Any Sox topic on ChicagoSports.com, or the Sun-Times there are Cubbie fans blasting the Sox. Then when there is Cubbie article as soon as a Sox fan posts something Cubbie fans start with the “obsession” and the usual blather and put-downs. It’s much the same here.
Cubbie fans repeatedly claim not to care about the Sox and then prove that by posting about them.
It is an interesting bit of, help me here arm-chair psychiatrists, self-deception.

Where, when?
I’ve said that I don’t care about the Cubs? Where? When?
Here is my profile commentary on this subject:
I’ve followed both teams for years. I attended my first game at Wrigley in 1985 & was in the left-field bleachers (front row!) for Mark Prior’s first home game. There were many others too!
I think it’s certainly possible and reasonable for someone to be a fan of one team and follow the other baseball team in town too. I am a fan of the Sox, that’s the team I’m emotionally invested in. However, I admit (without a blush) to following the Cubs. I am a fan of baseball. I don’t see why that’s weird to some Cubs and Sox fans.
If I were in NYC, or Detroit or where ever I’d still be a fan of the Sox but I’d follow that local team and wish to discuss that team. And in that arena, if someone pounded the Sox, I’d stick up for my team.

doing a quick search on SSS, I saw a poster OznCoop who not only proclaims to hate the Cubs, but has repeated posts about the Cubs.
How about here http://www.cubssuckclub.com/ which happens to be a Sox Fan Run Site?
Guess what DrC….EVERY TEAM IN EVERY LEAGUE HAS FANS WHO ACT THIS WAY. THE SOX ARE NOT INNOCENT, AS YOU MAKE IT OUT TO BE WITH YOUR STATEMENT.
THERE ARE CUB FANS WHO DO IT TO THE SOX, AND CARDS, AND BREWERS, AND GUESS WHAT, THOSE TEAMS HAVE HATERS ALSO.

Your war against Strawdad...
… Where did I say that Sox fans who hate the Cubs don’t post about them?
I’ve said, I don’t think I know of Sox fans who claim not to care about the Cubs, then post about them. That’s what Cubbie fans here there and just about everywhere do. They loudly boast that they don’t care about the Sox, as they’re talking about the Sox. (Several here have loudly said they don’t give a damn about the Sox and then got pissed off when I pointed to their dozens of posts about the Sox.)
If you don’t care about the Sox, fine with me but prove it by not posting about them. And if a Sox fan says, I don’t care about the Cubs, then they too should live up to their words.

I think you have a warped view of what "caring" is
For someone not to care, in your apparent logic, they must totally ignore and not respond to any comment made on the subject of their non caring. Seems a little extreme.
I see it as whether anyone here has actually taken this to heart. Very few have. Most have given a few flippant off-handed comments dismissing the incident because it is so small in relevance.
"Keep pushin till it's understood,
And these badlands start treating us good."
Now if TLR
or a Cards pitcher had said this…
"Keep pushin till it's understood,
And these badlands start treating us good."
Sanctimony & hyprocrisy, thy name is Cubbiedom
The whole point is not about one word but the dismissive, I don’t care, I don’t pay attention, who notices them, we never talk about them, blah, blah, blah…And then doing just the opposite of that.
Apparently, Sox fans are not allowed to comment about the Cubbies. Cubbie fans say they don’t talk about the Sox, and when they do (as they often do) no one is allowed to call them out on that, um hypocrisy.

The link is to a story on Chicago Breaking Sports.
The video is posted there, it’s not a secret. He talks about the Cubs, from what little of his slurred speech I could understand. It’s perfectly fine to notice and briefly discuss it. We will not burn in hell for our hypocrisy, nor would
any Sox fan if this were a Cubs player, and they commented on it.
This just seems like a really petty thing to be concerned about.
"Only a mediocre person is always at his best." ~W. Somerset Maugham
I'm sure most White Sox fans
don’t care about, let’s say, the Giants. They don’t pay attention to them, never talk about them, etc, etc.
But if there was a video of Tim Lincecum crapfaced and talking about how much he hates the White Sox, I’m sure it’d be quite the topic of discussion on White Sox blogs. And for good reason.
Boy Crawdad, you live for controversy, don't you?
You’re an intelligent and well-informed baseball guy, but more often than not, your disputatious antics undermine your arguments.
I hate using the term TROLL, because I’ve agreed with a lot you’ve had to say in the past, but I must admit, you fit the definition a majority of the time.

The three links are great, I mocked the perpetual Cubbie put-down of Sox fans as “Cub obsessed” which I find a fascinating put-down whilst they’re at Sox games or posting messages about the Sox, like this for example.
Are Sox fans obsessed with the Cubbies? I don’t care. Here is my point of view, but you and Cubbie-Tim are battling, not me but Strawdad:

You know, the posts of yours with actual content are interesting
And they show that you know baseball. It’s too bad that you insist on concealing that behind the thin-skinned, Cub-fan baiting persona. Viva El Pujols doesn’t feel the need to be like that when he posts here, for example.

Not the best drunken video I've ever seen...
…but yeah it made me giggle. Lord knows what sort of videos would be out there if I was constantly filmed haha.
"Pounding sand since 1982...."
Not upset
I suspected he was a heavy drinker when he pitched for Seattle. Way too inconsistent, in spite of his talent, and obvious physical strength. I told my wife back then that I was pretty sure Garcia was a drunk.
I do agree that it might be bad taste for the press to perpetrate this, however.
"I lof to hit de home ron!"
What
makes everyone around here automatically think Garcia is a “drunk”. I’m sure alot of people here have been this drunk and said dumb things. It doesnt mean he’s got some kind of problem.
Seems like a lot of people are jumping to conclusions about what kind of person he is.

Who cares if he's a Cubs fan? This is a football forum! He is a PACKER fan as well. So, from now until March, I’m sure he’ll dedicate a lot of his time here. In late March, then we can be enemies during the baseball season. Besides, the Cubs have perhaps the most loyal baseball fanbase in the country. You have to respect that.
Go Pack!

Nah man.
It doesn’t affect me, much like “discussions” on who’s the most awesomest poster and such. I posted here because I loved Goodie’s story and was “impressed” at some people’s desire to be artificially irritated.
Ah, I see what you're getting at.
And I agree with you, if I were with her and she told off a White Sox (or Cardinals) player like that, I would have proposed to her on the spot.

Does
nobody realize that someone asked him to say “fuck the cubs”. Why don’t you people actually watch the video. Clearly somebody says “hey carlos say fuck the cubs” and he does it because he’s drunk. Who cares? How many of you out there have said fuck the white sox in public when your drunk?
This is totally not a big deal.
Who's saying it was a big deal?
Seems like everyone’s just having a laugh about it.

It isn't a big deal and it is obvious someone eggs him on to say it.
But congratulations on thinking you were the only person to watch the video. Everyone else is still trying to get the handle of this internets thing…

Carlos?
That might be a big deal.
