Tim,

I would guess Ozzie would laugh.

Now, he should not have called Marriotti a "fag" - because he isn't. Besides, it's kind of insulting to British cigarettes. He should have called him a "spineless prick hack" - because he is.

As to your surprise regarding Mr. Reinsdorf's failure to publicly reprimand Ozzie, I can only assume you were unaware that Jerry absolutely detests Jay Marriotti - not without reason. I'm guessing that Jerry is secretly giving Ozzie a bonus that is at least double whatever the amount he was fined by MLB.

Of course, the absolutely "priceless" aspect of the whole situation is that Messrs. Selig and Watson have sentenced Ozzie to - get this - "sensitivity training"!! No, I am NOT making this up! You CAN'T make up stuff this good. Never realized Bud had a sense of humor.

JMO.
