August 1, 201114 yr QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 06:54 PM) Oney is your typical 5 year old. Make fun of people then say "it's just a joke!" Teahen pretty much just did the same thing with this... And damn it, I hate sounding like I am defending Oney, but I expected more out of Teahen.
August 1, 201114 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 05:53 PM) By lowering himself to Oney's level? I didn't say I agree with Teahen making the decision to tweet that. I just said the tweet was 100 percent true, and it was. If Oney is pissy about it, it's because he can't handle the twitter bullying that he normally is dishing out, and can't handle the truth.

August 1, 201114 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 06:50 PM) Yeah if Teahen fired the first shots as it appears, then he gets what he deserves. I can't stand Oney as much as the next guy, but you can't expect a guy to say nothing when you get called out like that. Did Teahen's wife get what she deserved?

Teahen does have a Jim Thome-like reputation as a person so it would be surprising to me that he would suddenly air some dirty laundry. But I could be wrong. Teahen and his wife did have a scheduled charity event the day he was traded. I wonder if something happened then.
August 1, 201114 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 06:53 PM) By lowering himself to Oney's level? Correct me if I am wrong, but I think this is the first time a player has called out Oney. normally it's us or the media, never publicly from players/staff.

Teahen and his wife did have a scheduled charity event the day he was traded. I wonder if something happened then. What does it tell you about the standing of the Guillen family in our clubhouse if somebody with a spotless reputation as a person like Mark Teahen is taking shots at them? And then, a "fair number" of our players are enraged not at what Mark said, but the way Oney responded? Edited August 2, 201114 yr by whitesoxfan101
August 2, 201114 yr Author All I know about Teahen's wife is that she is way better than that POS Oney Guillen could get.

I'm sure you wouldn't say the same thing if it were your wife that he attacked. Oney could have easily just mocked how bad Teahen is at baseball. He went after the guy's wife. Always the wrong choice.

There's no defending shots at innocent people and Teahen's wife is totally innocent here. Oney can backtrack and say it was a joke, but we all know the truth. Ozzie apparently doesn't want to show up his 25 year old son and do something about it, so his entire team and employer will continue to be embarrassed by this. Maybe its time Ozzie's wife steps up to the plate and tells her son what an idiot he is. A "you're about an inch from being on your own" may do the trick. Without Ozzie, Oney's selling Streetwise.
August 2, 201114 yr This latest twitter gate at least was more interesting to watch than the Sox vs CC with Dunn 4th and Rios 5th.
August 2, 201114 yr Well let's put it this way.what would the Guillens reaction be if this was reversed, and Teahen made the same comments about Ibis. Me thinks they might stroke out a bit.
August 2, 201114 yr In a masochistic way, this is the most fun thing that's happened with this team in a while. It honestly feels more interesting than the Teahen/Jackson trade.

And damn it, I hate sounding like I am defending Oney, but I expected more out of Teahen. You know, for once you're actually right. Which makes me wonder how truly awful this must have been to make espy snap off like that.

I can't stand Oney as much as the next guy, but you can't expect a guy to say nothing when you get called out like that. So you honestly believe that Teahen, out of the blue, decided to blast Oney freaking Guillen? There's more to this that we don't know....either someone passed something along to Mark that Oney said or Teahen's tweet had nothing to do with Oney. I'm of the opinion that the former is more likely when put in an historical context.

August 2, 201114 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 07:42 PM) Teahen also pretended that he didn't mean Oney. Well supposedly more than a couple of White Sox players are incensed with Oney. One going so far as say he wants to smash his face in, so maybe Teahen didn't start it.

One term used was "smash his face in" 3 hours ago via Twitter for BlackBerry® --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

August 2, 201114 yr I got retweeted by Oney, I had a short message. RossHusson Ross Husson by Oneyguillen @Oneyguillen You suck. #Oneysucks.
