Some hits from the story in today’s Chicago Tribune:
Mt. Ozzie on the Cubs:
” The Cubs haven’t won in [100] years, and they’re the [bleeping] best. [Bleep] it, we’re good. [Bleep] everybody. We’re horse[bleep], and we’re going to be horse[bleep] the rest of our lives, no matter how many World Series we win.”
“How about the Cubs celebrating that Lee Elia bull[bleep]? How many times do I curse people out? I will make a lot of money with my [stuff]. I have to keep going because in the future Ozzie will need money, and I can say, ‘Here, give me money, here’s the 10-year anniversary of my time I called [Jay] Mariotti stuff and the time I went on the radio and cursed out Mike North.’”
Mt. Ozzie on the White Sox:
“We won it a couple years ago, and we’re horse[bleep],” Guillen said sarcastically before the Sox (14-15) lost to the Blue Jays 4-3 and fell below .500 for the first time since April 3.”
“We have the worst owner (Jerry Reinsdorf). The guy’s got seven [bleeping] rings, and he’s the [bleeping] horse[bleep] owner.”
Mt. Ozzie on Chicago fans and Chicago media:
“If we had 50 people allowed on the roster, we could do that. That’s what ticks me off about Chicago fans and Chicago media: They forget pretty quickly. A couple of days ago we were the [bleeping] best [stuff] in town. Now we’re [bleep].”
“People are panicking,” said Guillen, whose Sox were in first place in the American League Central from April 15 until Saturday night. “Did we play a real bad week? Yes, we did, we stunk. But it wasn’t too long ago that we were — ‘the biggest surprise in baseball, wow, look at the White Sox.’”
“All of a sudden, there we go, back to normal. We have to deal with it. [Bleep] it. As long as the 25 guys out there believe we can do it, everyone else, hey … “
Now that Ozzie has cleared the air, only one [bleepin'] question remains: Who had the worse weekend? Cedric Benson, or Ozzie?

[...] Yesterday, we told you about White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen’s tirade at reporters before Sunday’s Sox-Blue Jays game in Toronto. Guillen was upset because his club was mired in a 4-game losing skid and the offense was anemic at best. [...]
