February 13, 200422 yr WHITE SOX INSIDER February 10, 2003 A MESSAGE FROM OZZIE GUILLEN ================================================================= Dear White Sox Fan - It was great to see so many of you at SoxFest. I love the passion White Sox fans have for their team. I'm so excited to be back in Chicago with the White Sox. When Kenny Williams asked me to be the next manager of the team, it was a dream come true. Besides my family, baseball is my life. To come back and try to bring a World Series championship to White Sox fans is unbelievable. I wish Spring Training started today! We're going to have a lot of fun this year. I like to have fun, and I want my players to enjoy the game, too. But we also are going to respect the game and play the game the right way. We are going to bunt, move runners along and run the bases hard. Little things win ballgames, like driving guys in from third base with less than two outs. No matter what, I promise you this - We are going to play good, fundamental baseball and have fun doing it every single day. I don't have a lot of patience. I want to win, and I want to win with the White Sox and with these players. If we play the game the right way, you wait - in June and July - we're going to surprise a lot of people. We all share a passion for the White Sox, and I hope you are as excited as I am about the upcoming season. We're going to work hard, have fun and play good baseball. See you at the ballpark. Ozzie Guillen Manager, Chicago White Sox THEY NEVER HAD JERRY WRITE US A LETTER. KINDA CORNY BUT DECENT PROMOTION. I DOUBT OZZY WROTE IT THOUGH.

Certain people over at BSI think this organization is stooping to new lows with this. Meh....all this won't matter if Sox are in 1st place by 7-10 games around June-July. Go Sox!!!
February 13, 200422 yr If we play the game the right way, you wait - in June and July - we're going to surprise a lot of people. Yea, in June and July, we might be doing well, but I'm sure they will blow it again by late August/early Tember
February 13, 200422 yr the letter would have meant alot to more to me if it wasnt followed with numbers and links for season and single game tickets :headshake

Afterall, he's already their puppet/mouthpiece, anyway. If he is fine with this, I don't care. Give me exciting baseball, 1st place and very good attendance....and the rest matter very little.
February 13, 200422 yr I could actually hear the slur of his words as i was reading it. Crazy! A couple days ago on Steve Dahl, he was playing tapes of the new Sox promo with Ozzie and mixing in clips of Tony Montana from Scarface. It was pretty good, they sound very similar. Could make for some fun during the season...."Frank, you no run the bases, I break your balls"
