Thank you for the words Lauren. That takes a strong person to say what you did. We wish you and Mark all the best in Toronto. As the person who started the thread by posting Mark's tweet, I apologize profusely for insinuating what I did.

QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Aug 2, 2011 -> 11:02 AM) The Guillens are rednecks. They are people who came from nothing and got rich but don't know how to handle it and the stench of piss still stays with them. I have no problem with Ozzie supported his son the way he does financially. Ozzie never got that from his parents, growing up poor in Venezuela. He is living most people's dreams about being able to support your family, but he has got to keep that kid on a leash. Does Ozzie even realized all the s*** his kid starts?

So Gabe Carimi is not officially the RT and Webb is the LT. There were definitely positives and negatives both ways here. Webb is more athletically suited for the LT role, but he was terrible last year at RT, which is an easier position. And without an off-season, I wonder how much he could have improved over the summer. Then again, Carimi is a potential All-Pro at RT whereas at LT, he probably just solid. Jay, I am sorry for what you are going to endure (again) this year.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 09:52 PM) Ozzie's take on the game. " we didn't get the bunt down" Lmao And Danks peached well.

What was terrific about Jake's start? He gave up 8 hits in 7 innings and three runs. It was solid, but not terrific. STFU Hawk.

Alex Rios has a .383 OPS in July.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 09:33 PM) It would be hard to. Two other candidates, Wade and Hendry, will be out of a job shortly. I know for a fact KW would have blown up this team if they were 20 games under .500. Somehow, the delusional Hendry thinks his team can compete next year and kept his players. Hendry and KW are similar to me. The Cubs play in the harder division, mainly because the Cards are always good, and he has three divisions since 2003. KW has two since 2001. They are both bad given their inherent advantages.

QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 09:32 PM) I think maybe some GMs would look past this year and at his other years. Maybe they would risk it. The only way I could see someone acquiring Dunn is if the Sox paid at least half his salary. But that would have to be via a trade.

QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 09:29 PM) I think there is a possibility that Adam Dunn would be claimed There is no way. Too much money for the production he is giving.

So could Sale conceivably pitch in the majors next year? I know talent wise he could, but endurance wise? He is filthy as a reliever, but starters are way more valuable.

Predictable. Oh so predictable.

All I know about Teahen's wife is that she is way better than that POS Oney Guillen could get.

I was curious now as to what Teahen's wife looked like, so I found the pictures from the Teahen event last week and voilà:

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 05:33 PM) Seriously, how have none of the Chicago Sportswriters figured this out yet? I know it took us nearly a day to get it, but we're not paid to see what Oney says. Maybe there's an "Oney said something stupid" article prohibition. Well the Sun-Times can't risk losing their only White Sox source, so perhaps that's their excuse.

Here is Mark's tweet from five hours ago. Notice how he says beautiful wife. Am I reading into that too much or is that a subtle response to Oney?

I wonder if we at Soxtalk could get a #fireozzie hashtag trending on Twitter in Chicago. I think that would be pretty cool if we could make it happen. Or a #sitrios.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 04:59 PM) MAKE SURE TO USE THE #oneysucks hashtag and post here what you posted on twitter! My tweet:

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 05:15 PM) Can Oney have said something and deleted it? Or more likely, said something to someone who passed it on to Teahen? Only thing that I can think of. Mark just wouldn't have done something like this, not his personality. Oney, on the other...if the shoe fits...

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 05:13 PM) Teahen took the first, albeit true, shot if it really was about Oney Yeah, he did. Makes me wonder why Mark tweeted that. Something must have happened that precipitated that.

QUOTE (SoxPride56 @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 04:50 PM) http://twitter.com/#!/Oneyguillen/stat...874889578512385 http://twitter.com/#!/Oneyguillen/stat...874696263041024 http://twitter.com/#!/Oneyguillen/stat...877475526328321 Here are the tweets from that ass hole. Jeez. What a turd Oney is. Seriously, horses*** stuff.

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 04:39 PM) I don't know. I couldn't find it, so maybe it was taken down. Ballantini needs to elaborate. Yeah I couldn't find anything about it. There is just way too much distracting non-baseball stuff that comes with Guillen. And when he is an average manager, there is just no need to keep him around.

Despite all the backtracking from Teahen, I still think that tweet was directed at the Guillen family, and in particular, Oney.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 11:26 AM) Hopefully this triggers a fireable tirade from Ozzie. And the best part is that Teahen is 1000000000000% correct. Kudos to Mark.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 11:13 AM) That's less than 20 receptions per season. That guy is filthy. When was talking about joining the Jets, I was thinking how the hell will anyone pass against them with Revis and Asomugha? I actually really wanted to see that.

Mark Teahen tweet: Interesting...
