Is anyone on this board of Cuban descent?

Press conference in 25 min

If Ozzie gets fired over this. Ken Rosenthal thinks so.

[Omar]

Is anyone on this board of Cuban descent?

I'd venture to say about half of us, myself included.

As a person of Cuban descent whose family was forced out of the country in the infancy of the Castro regime, I have no problem with what Ozzie said.

[Miamarlin21]

Wow. Suspended for five games.

[flamarlins3]

#marlins suspend manager ozzie guillen 5 games.

@gregcote

Dumb. Suspending accomplishes nothing. But whatever.

[Miamarlin21]

He's just gonna get drunk those five games.

[tr305]

Should have been at least 25 games.

[Omar]

He shouldn't have been suspended at all

[Namaste]

The Cuban community in Little Havana is so outraged that there are at least 8 people in the West Plaza protesting.

[Blackout Pact]

Should have been at least 25 games.

You're the worst.

[tr305]

WTF is he saying ?

[Chewford]

People are stupid.

  Spoiler:

[Namaste]

This is ghey. He's a baseball manager. He said he's sorry. He's getting suspended and now they want him to talk at length about Hugo Chavez.

Hopefully Ozzie learns a HUGH lesson here. STFU and manage the Marleeeens.
