I'm sure you guys caught this. They talked to Ozzie during Sunday night's game and they said 'Mark B. is really underrated outside of Chicago'. Ozzie replied, 'well that's because he plays for the White Sox and not your Red Sox'. Those 2 clowns seemed stunned, THAT WAS AWESOME.

Nope, missed it. Damn. Sure would have liked to have caught it though.

If that's really true, then Ozzie sure as hell pwned the asses of those ESPN tools.

 

Ozzie!

He said "your" Red Sox?

 

That's awesome!

LOL Yeah I saw that, awesome

He said "your" Red Sox?

 

That's awesome!

I saw the interview and heard him say something about the Red Sox but couldn't really understand what it was, if he said your Red Sox that's f'n awesome.

I believe he said, " Because he doesn't play for Boston or New York, "when asked why Buehrle is relatively unknown outside Chicago.

 

Ozzie is difficult to understand, so I may be wrong.

I'm positive he at least 'The' Red Sox, but I'm pretty sure he said 'YOUR' Red Sox.

I could tell by his face that he was pissed going into it, his team is down 2 runs and they wanna chat.

That's what I recalled hearing too

Ditto

Oz You got to love him

Just rewatced it, Ozzie said "New York or the Red Sox."

lol way to Ozzie!!

it was great and the best part was later on in the game they showed games coming up on ESPN and 3 days in a row it was yanks vs. red sox

Thats how heard it. He said that because he plays for the White Sox and not New York or Boston. He didn't ever say "your" or at least I didn't hear that, but with Oz you never know.

 

Basically he's right though and it isn't even ESPN's fault. I mean ESPN talked up Sheets a ton last year and hell, most generic baseball fans wouldn't know that much about him either.

Ozzie is a quote machine!!!!

Easily the funniest Sox manager I can recall. There's no one else in the race!

I'll take it, either way, he made his point.

I don't know, Jerry was a pretty funny dude.... there was that one time he said, umm, uhh... you know what I am talking about, right? Well he said something. And it was Really FUNNY.

Personally I'd be fine if we don't play another game on ESPN all year, until the playoffs.

If we want to play in the playoffs; we're going to have to be on there sooner or later...

I think Santana had more to do with it than ESPN did.

I'm just talking about the announcers and such...Even though I muted the game and listened to Rooney and Farmer, I can only imagine how much slurping Morgan was doing on the Twins.

The funniest thing about Manuel was when he wake up in the dugout and pretend to be angry about something, but he didn't really know how to argue with the umps, so he'd stand there and wobble his head from side to side and then suddenly stop the head-wobble and walk meekly back to the dugout and resume dozing.

.....that was funny.....

Actually, early in the game, they were talking about the Twins not playing good baseball. Which was true at the time. Then the Sox started playing poorly and Santana became dominant. What else could they do?

Their general bias against the Sox is quite evident from all of their announcers top to bottom and their programming.

 

Case in point, Sox win the first 2 of the series, they bury the highlights way down in SportsCenter.

 

Then the Sunday night game, we've got the Twins-Sox highlights early in the show.

 

Now you can say it was since Johan was pitching against Buehrle, but neither of these guys are well-known outside of their respective markets.
