September 27, 201114 yr Today, is a sad day. Ozzie resigning should be sad, it's a good baseball move, but I'm saddened by it. The man is responsible for some of the happiest moments of my life and also some of the most frustrating. But those joyous ones will always be with me. It's sad that the situation deteriorated to the point where the greatest manager in Sox history, became a parody and shadow of himself, obsessed with Ozzieball, imposing his will, and sustaining a senseless pissing contest. And his son didn't help at all. But despite all that, here's to you Ozzie, it was a hell of a few years and then it was hell for a few years. But most importantly, the good memories, they'll always stay.
September 27, 201114 yr Ozzie is the best Manager this franchise has had in the last 50 years. And this is the worst day of any White Sox Fans life... The only people that are happy are Cubs Fans ALC non-White Sox fans Jay Marrotti. Edited September 27, 201114 yr by VictoryMC98
September 27, 201114 yr I'm happy and I'm a huge Sox fan. I'm not going to talk about what I soured on him, because this thread is not about that. So with that said, thank you Ozzie for helping bringing the White Sox a championship. You are appreciated for what you did and the best of luck. The end.
September 27, 201114 yr ^I'M SO HAPPY^ I found out where Jay Mariotti went too now. It all comes together.

Could you not ruin a thread that's trying to appreciate the guy by trying to incite people? And man, I think Ozzie will be back, that Florida will be humbling for him. And if he really is humbled, I'll welcome him back with open arms.

And if he really is humbled, I'll welcome him back with open arms. How am I ruining a thread about the best non-player in/on the White SOX? I also think Ozzie, will be back.. Once this team fails next year and JR looks and realizes Ozzie was right. I don't get why you don't think he is humbled, he is/was perfect manager for this team and town.. This is a sad day for true white sox fans.. Period. Edited September 27, 201114 yr by VictoryMC98

September 27, 201114 yr So you don't want your manager to be proud of the organization they are managing?

September 27, 201114 yr Amen. It was time to go, but without Ozzie we might not have 2005, and that thought makes me very very sad. So, thanks for the memories Ozzie. I'll never forget them! GL in Florida!

This is just step one to turning this damn organization around and hopefully in the right direction. But I must say, Ozzie was definitely partially responsible for what happened in 2005 and I'm thankful for that. But what happened in 2005 is what happened in 2005. Those accomplishments won't mean much of anything in 2012.
September 27, 201114 yr I'm sad, but happpy cause I can actually go to a game and not hear all the negative fans complain.

It's pretty easy to sit back and allow your starters, acquired by your GM, to just pitch you through the playoffs. Good riddance, Ozzie!
