CHICAGO, June 30 (UPI) -- Chicago White Sox Manager Ozzie Guillen, fined for using a gay slur against a columnist, says he'll spend an off-day at the Gay Games on July 17. He also plans to attend sensitivity training sessions soon, the Chicago Sun- Times reported.

Guillen said he had already planned to attend the Gay Games, and his visit is not related to the trouble he got into with Major League Baseball for calling Sun-Times columnist Jay Mariotti a "fag" during a locker room interview.

Guillen has apologized.

I long for the day when someone of note has the balls to stand up to the PC tyrants.

What a steaming pile of horse manure. He had this planned all along? He thought, "Wow, a day off from travel and ballpark crap - I've got time with the family - I think I'm going to the Gay Games!"

Ozzie just needs to make an apology (whatever) and stop pandering to the media gods of political correctness.

The following did not happen, but would be funny if it did.

Mr Guillen got himself in hot water again when asked about his plans to attend the Gay Games.

"In my spare time I like to watch homo athletes. I love the fruitty little b#$tards."

"Guillen has apologized"

He didn't appologize for calling Jay a Piecs of $hit, just for using the "fag" word.

I don't think many people realize that he was quoted OFF THE RECORD. These media people published this when he casually spoke to them with the cameras off, pens and papers put away, no recording...

Also, go to the SUN TIMES and read the articles MarROTti wrote in the days before hand. This is only a handfull of his crap. He is a constant anti-sox reporter for as long as I can remember.

I'm a die hard WS fan. My advice to Ozzie is smarten up and don't trust those reporters ever again....

He's probably really just going to scout the Yankees.

It all just gets more perverted -- non-stop queer-mania.

I wish one of these guys would say, you know what, I'm not sorry.
Apologizing just gives their enemies more ammo.

Just remember this the next time someone says that the terrorists hate us for our "freedoms." The most basic freedom is freedom of speech. Freedom of speech simply does not exist in this country anymore.

Watch out, the next thing you'll be reading is that Guillen has found himself a husband at the Gay Games and they'll be going to Boston next week to get married.
