I love MLB. Torre gets a suspension for a pitch that doesn't even hit a batter, and Ozzie runs around threatening rookie pitchers when they don't bean people, calling people [censored] fagggots, and nothing happens.

Ozzie will be suspended for Riske hitting Duncan. Threatening rookie pitchers???????? What did he say? Were you in the dugout to listen?

As for calling Mariotti a [censored] he may still face punitive action. Do me a favor though. Read Mariotti's White Sox articles since Ozzie was hired, then listen to (or read) Ozzie's rant against Mariotti and let me know how you would view things from Ozzies perspective.

[/ QUOTE ]

If Ozzie has called Mariotti a douche most everyone would have just agreed, because Mariotti is an enormous douche. It's just unfortunate for him he happened to use a word that is politically incorrect. I haven't seen anybody refute the "He's a piece of [censored]" part of the quote.

Ozzie defended his use of "[censored]" to another reporter saying crap like "in my country..." and "it's not against gays, it's against his manhood" lol. Then later, after a talk with Reinsdorf, Ozzie appoligized for using it yet still defended his use of it in his apology.

From Wiktionary.org

I'm pretty sure this is what Ozzie meant:

(US slang, offensive) A jerk, an a**hole.
Why did you do that, you f*g?

I use the word in a similar manner as I'm sure many of the offended critics here do as well.

Ozzie said he used the word to "insult his manhood" or something, which clearly shows he wasn't using it as a substitute for "jerk." Furthermore, Ozzie isn't some Joe spouting off at his buddy in private. That word is not suitable to any professional setting. I can imagine a boss or CEO saying "jerk" or "dummy" or "idiot" but not ozzie's word.

He claims he used it to indicate Marriotti was weak or fearful.

Yeah well Ozzie isn't in his country. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. If he doesn't like it then why doesn't he go back to his native country?
