ozzie guillen Stories - Bleed Cubbie Blue
Stage is set for changes
In a way, it's almost good that the White Sox offense failed to help John Danks and the bullpen during Wednesday's 11-inning, 2-1 loss. Had Matt Thornton and Jesse Crain been able to preserve the shutout, the story would've been Danks' triumphant return, a second straight series win inside the...
Nothing healthy about White Sox's respect for Twins
When the White Sox used the much-maligned solo homer to defeat the Minnesota Twins to win the AL Central back in 2008, I had hoped that would be the game the White Sox would point to when it came to any future problems with the Twins. Talking to my dad on Sunday night, he pointed further back when...
You Decide: Best Head Coach / Manager in Chicago
A couple days ago the Chicago Sun Times scored the five Head Coaches and Managers in the city of Chicago in ten different categories. The scores ranged from 5 (the best) to 1 (the worst). In two categories, championships won and playoffs appearances they gave either a 5 or a 0, with no gray area....
Guillen: I didn't say the things I said
While talking to reporters prior to Sunday's 13-4 loss to Toronto, Ozzie Guillen buried the lede. He held court on a variety of topics, but what he said toward the end is what everybody's talking about. "They'll only remember the 2005 team in 2020 when we come here in a wheelchair," Guillen said....
Angels Fans World Record Wrestling Mask Attempt is Tuesday
A press release sent by the Angels media relations does not explain away the season ticket holders who will re-enter the stadium three and four times (that would be me) for extra masks without the commensurate heads to be wearing said masks when the record will be broken. I assume the Guinness...
Chicago Sports Thoughts: Bears and beyond...
The last time I did a Chicago Sports Thoughts post, the Chicago Blackhawks were still playing hockey (stupid Canucks). They faced an uphill battle as the 8th seed, they fought valiantly, and they nearly pulled off the miraculous finish, but... stupid Canucks... With no mass exodus expected this...
Milledge's DFA as predictable as it is strange
There's a good chance that the White Sox won't miss Lastings Milledge in one way or another, so I hesitate to make too big a deal out of their strange decision to designate him for assignment on Thursday morning. At the same time, it's really hard to figure out why it happened, regardless of...
Chicago Sports Thoughts: Bears and beyond...
I thought I'd take my thoughts post in a different direction during the NFL off season. I'm a fan of many other sports and I'm sure a lot of you are too. The Chicago market has sports options for everybody, and that's a good a place as any to kick off this post. Spring Training is under way for...

Hush money: White Sox pick up Guillen's 2012 option
The first day of SoxFest stored a pleasant surprise for Ozzie Guillen, as the Sox picked up his option for 2012. On the same day, he launched OzzieGuillen.com. I doubt the Sox brass planned a tandem announcement, but it might as well have been a joint venture. Based on what Kenny Williams did this...
