Talk:Ozzie Guillén

message: I don't believe this is technically correct.  Lou Piniella won the 1990 World Series as manager of the Reds.  Ozzie, I believe, is the first manager to be born in Latin America to win the World Series.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.86.148.34 (talk) 17:27, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: First Hispanic Manager to win World Series?

message: Can anyone confirm that Guillén was the one who came up with the 2005 slogan "Win or Die Trying"? I'm inclined to believe it was most likely the ChiSox marketing division. Until someone can find a source, I believe the line should stay out. 66.185.85.70 19:35, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

Professional writing on this absolute joke of a website? Dream on.

thread_title:  F Bombs? 

message: When Guillen, so eloquently, ripped Ordonez, he clearly said "piece of CHIT", not shit. Listen to the sound byte. No "sh" sound was used, it was clearly "ch". Let's not cover up the fact that this class act can't speak the language. 
Listen to the sound byte!!

message: Can we edit this so it's not so vulgar?  I can only imagine a kid reading this page.  Just because he said it doesn't mean we have to quote it directly.  Some blanks or "expletives deleted" would suffice.  Dubc0724 14:04, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Language 

message: Didn't ozzie say something about him when he refused to particpiate in the World Baseball Classic?
: Uh, yeah ;-) "Alex was kissing Latino people's asses, he knew he wasn't going to play for the Dominicans; he's not a Dominican!" He also made this comment about Nomar Garciaparra: "It's the same with Garciaparra playing for Mexico. Garciaparra only knows Cancun because he went to visit." Both A-Rod and Nomar are native-born US citizens, that's apparently what prompted Ozzie's comments.   Tubezone 03:25, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Alex Rodriguez 

message: This doesn't really seem like a controversy to me.  It just seems like one of Guillen's many insults. Maybe if Carlos made some public comments back at Guillen it would have been but I don't really remember the situation too well.  Should this section be taken out?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.219.169.130 (talk) 00:34, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: That would be unsourced vandalism. It's not official. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:48, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

text: I would ask who this "source" is. He/she could be right, but he/she could be wrong and the reporter could be reporting this irresponsibly. Wait for confirmation from the teams or league. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:53, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

text: And who is the "source"? That's not an official announcement, they're just reporting on the developing story as well. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:04, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I really don't think he should be shown in Marlins colors yet. They'll make an official announcement soon, so why not wait until then? Delaywaves talk 20:21, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: He shouldn't be shown as a Marlin. McKeon is the manager of the Marlins for their remaining games. Nothing is official regarding Guillen succeeding him. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:22, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Still in White Sox dugout 

message: What, exactly, is the point of pointing out that he tweeted that he likes Bed, Bath & Beyond and that Comcast sucks? Doesn't really seem necessary. Th 2005 (talk) 02:54, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I meant to get to that next. When the news about Florida starting breaking, I came to watch over this page and saw numerous things I've edited out. That I left at first because it was sourced, the part about Sean Penn I took out. I think that should go. It's not our job to advertise for corporations without any reason. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:56, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Personal Life 

message: I just deleted the following which appeared as part of the sentence stating Guillen did not go to White House after 2005 World Series win: "dramatically contrasting that refusal with a visit to President Hugo Chávez with a Venezuelan flag as part of the World Series victory celebration."
If this is sourced it can be added back, however, without a reference it's an unsubstantiated and inflammatory claim.--Utahredrock (talk) 18:07, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
