"Whether the lewdness was intentional or not..."

WHAT?!?!?!?!!?

Uh...she slipped, and fell onto the bat. Honest.

Yankee64 | 05/06/08, 09:54 AM

I agree....tasteless, but funny.

That Ozzie is a real class guy.

Mr. Beepo | 05/06/08, 10:02 AM

ummmm...... so? This reporter needs to chill out (A female obviously)

sjptrack | 05/06/08, 10:04 AM

This is progress. 20 years ago, they would have been real women.

I hate uptights idiots like this reporter. Its their own club house, they can do what they want to do, and they shouldn't have to worry about people like this chick who has no sense of humor.

But did the doll inhale?

And after reading the whole article this dumb broad sounds even more ridiculous. I quote, "Just so we're clear, had there been any female reporters working Sunday's game -- my understanding is there weren't -- the Sox could have found themselves in legal trouble as a result of the display. It's also possible male reporters were offended by the display." "To think there wasn't a single player man enough to stand up and say, ''This is wrong.''

I'm sure the players' moms, wives, sisters and daughters are really proud of them. Way to go, guys. And just so we're clear, the tired ''boys will be boys'' excuse no longer works."

People like this should be sent to their own perfect little colony where they have no chance of getting offended ever, and we don't have to know about their drivel.

Sheesh Ozzie...you cant get better ideas to motivate your team?

I mean hell...you stole this from Major League the movie anyway...

This is not even funny really...its overdone tbh.

Nice attempt, but try again.

Saihung | 05/06/08, 10:20 AM

oh man if i were one of the players walking into a room like that then i would have cracked up...

but its a room full of men and they say whatever happens in the lockerroom stays in the locker room....so just the fact that the reporters saw it makes it a big deal...agreed...

but its a team full of men...theres no women invovled with that team whatsoever....

i mean come on...when women get together (and call me sexist if you must) all they do is blast men and the whole entire gender thereof..


when men are all around each other they make fun of women and that whole gender...its been like this since the beginning of time just we have blow up dolls to do it for us...

and i mean come on...some women like that sorta stuff....

Fire the jack-**** already! He is making a mockery of the franchise
with his bs antics. He is constantly saying or doing things to hurt one group of people after another. From Gays to Women he has always tried to hide behind his accent and pretend he didn't mean to say what he said.

Fire him now. Send a message that this is not acceptable in 2008!

Tim in nYc | 05/06/08, 10:44 AM

Better check those dolls for Ozzie's DNA. The way he is, that is probably the only "women" he can get.

madhatter | 05/06/08, 10:49 AM

Whether you're offended by the "shrine" or not, is this really what a smart manager would do to get his team focused?

And if it worked, what would that say about the team?

It doesn't come across as criminal, but it sure looks stupid.

Yankee64 | 05/06/08, 10:55 AM

Blow up dolls are great dates..... you never have to say SHUT THE **** UP ****!! after you're done with them..... less hassle with the police later...

Sir Robin (as himself) | 05/06/08, 10:55 AM

Jesus what is the world coming to when a ball club can't have some locker room fun......**** off Chicago Sun Times.

Weapon X | 05/06/08, 10:56 AM

Slump busters have been in the league forever. I remember Gracie on Jim Rome's show talking about guys rubbing one out with a fat chick to break a slump. That being said, they should have put the shrine in a place reporters wouldn't see it because a feminist **** saw it and is making a mountain out of a mole hill now.

Biakaba is Lt. Frank Drebin | 05/06/08, 11:13 AM

Hey, you have to do what you have to do to get these guys out of a slump! Didn't you all see Major League? It worked for them!!! Besides, it's their locker room, they can do whatever the heck they want!! If i was a ball player i'd make my locker the most tasteless, lewd, crass, uncomfortable place for reporters to go to just so that they know they are stepping into my house!
