Ozzie Guillen loves Fidel Castro

And is an alcoholic.


Miami Marlins' Ozzie Guillen apologizes for Fidel Castro comment - ESPN
Quote:
Miami Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen apologized Saturday for telling a magazine he loves Fidel Castro, two days after saying he gets drunk at the hotel bar after every game. "I get drunk because I'm happy we win or I get drunk because I'm very sad and disturbed because we lose. Same routine, it never changes. It's been the same routine for 25, 28 years. It doesn't change. I don't like to go out."

Guillen told Time magazine he loves Castro and respects him for staying in power so long. When Guillen read his comments Friday, he said he felt sick because he knew how people would react.

So basically, he drinks anytime he has feelings... which I'm assuming is everyday. I doubt his drinking problem ends after 162 games have been played. Probably drunk when he gave the interview claiming to love Castro.

Don't think the drinking comments really matter. The man can do what he wants in his free time. However, he may get ousted by the Miami Cuban population.

He was obviously joking about the drinking. The Castro comments . . . just stupid.

Hmmm... he hates Chavez but has respect for Castro. I would say alcohol was probably a factor in the comments.

These are some examples of the new team uniforms that Guillen wanted as well.

You can't choose love. Love chooses you!

If he was white, he would have been run out of the league years ago.

Miami needs him too bad. It would take a lot for him to get fired.
