Biggio's wife slapped at White Sox's ballpark
Guillen issues apology to Astro, condemns fanBy JOSE DE JESUS ORTIZCopyright 2005 Houston Chronicle
Chicago White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen issued a public apology on behalf of his organization to Astros second baseman Craig Biggio, whose wife was slapped by a fan in the stands at U.S. Cellular Field.
"I feel like it's our fault, and I talked to (Biggio) about it, and he knows we're sorry," Guillen said. "He knows it was something we couldn't control. It wasn't like a fight. (The fan) hit the lady and left."
No frickin crap, Guillen! Fault? How about your drunken stupid fans? Do you Chicagoites encourage that crap also? Hey, apology is fine, but try and get your fans to act like humans and not crap-tossing ass-apes, OK?
The incident occurred on Sunday night during Game 2 of the 101st World Series at Chicago's ballpark, where several members of the Astros' traveling party were harassed.
"He slapped her and ran," Biggio said of the fan who struck his wife, Patty. "She ran after him. My brother-in-law ended up putting him against the wall. That's pretty sorry."
Asked if Patty had been hurt, Biggio said his New Jersey-raised wife held her own.
"You don't slap a New Jersey girl and get away with it," he said. "That happens sometimes. It's terrible. It's over."
The true side of Chicago, cheap shot takers and punks. Aside from the many fine folks, WHO DID NOTHING TO STOP THIS, this punk was shamed, in PUBLIC. Don't mistake Texans for wusses and whipping boys and girls. We can be nice and polite. Mess with a lady, and we're gonna stomp a serious mudhole in your ass! We got the boots, don't make us use em!And also, this punk is lucky Mrs. Biggio didn't slap him back. She'd probably be able to take that punk apart, alone. See, when you hit Houston women in Chicago, the Houston men, the REAL MEN fight. Keep it up, fuzzballs!
Added Guillen: "I wish she would have grabbed something and broken his head. If that happened to my family, it would have been a big problem. ... People should just go to the game and not bother people next to you, or you're not a White Sox fan or a baseball fan. Just enjoy the game. Drink if you want to drink; just respect the people next to you."
No criminal complaint was made against the fan, according to Chicago police.
What a shame, pepper spray goes so well with bruises and bloody noses. Little punk needs go back to his home, oops jail....
Chicago defendedBiggio, manager Phil Garner, general manager Tim Purpura, catcher Brad Ausmus and several of the Astros were adamant that a few cowardly acts weren't indicative of the White Sox or Chicago fan base.
"The word was that the guy had been gouging her a little bit, pulling her hair and just doing some stupid things, things that are just not necessary," Garner said. "Have your fun. This (World Series) is a great thing for them and a great thing for us. Cheer and be as loud as you want to be and whatever else, but don't do that.
"I can't imagine Patty Biggio ever saying anything that would incite anything, either. I just can't imagine that. Even if she had, there's no excuse."
Despite the incident, Garner said he heard the Astros' traveling party had mostly positive experiences with the fans.
Mostly positive? What a whitewash. Bud Selig, you tool! You and your MLB Commission love painting a rosy pic, as long as your favorite team looks fine! SCREW YOU!
Nonetheless, Guillen did not hide his disgust at the treatment Patty Biggio received.
"On behalf of the White Sox organization, I just don't think we could control that," Guillen said. "But I think the family is a big part of my life. I think especially the kids. And when that happened in the ballpark, you feel you need to be supportive.
"When you're a man and you hit a lady, no matter whose wife it is or whose sister it is, you respect them. But it's something that's tough to control. It happened so quick."
Yeah, they're real sorry. Not....
More harassmentAlthough Patty Biggio was the only Astros wife who was slapped Sunday, she wasn't the only member of the traveling party who was harassed. Ausmus said his wife, Liz, endured some vulgar taunts and a few vulgar hand gestures throughout the night.
"Some of the treatment that the Astros families received at U.S. Cellular Field was a huge black eye for the city of Chicago," Ausmus said. "Now, I understand that's not indicative of all the people in the Chicago area, because I have friends and relatives there.
"I know the people of Chicago are overwhelmingly good people. But if I was from Chicago, I'd be embarrassed by the way the Astros' families were treated by the White Sox fans. My wife didn't get hit or anything, but people flipped her off and were screaming at her."
The attendance at U.S. Cellular Field was announced as 41,432 for Game 2, and the crowd was obviously overwhelmingly in support of the White Sox. With that in mind, Ausmus said there was little the Astros' family members could do in response. "You don't want to get caught in a situation where you're inflaming the masses," Ausmus said. "So I think as an Astros fan at a visiting park, you pretty much have to swallow it."
Yeah, considering Chicago PD would probably jail the Astros for inciting a riot.... Corrupt bastards.
'Bring him to me'Maybe so, but Guillen insinuated that he would have definitely defended anybody in the Astros' traveling party.
"I know the security in Chicago is doing a great job," Guillen said. "And when something happens so quick, you can't blame anybody. And the guy that did it, he should be brought to Biggio, and he's the one that can hopefully get him back.
"I told the police, 'Don't put him in jail. Bring him to me in the dugout.' But hopefully, that won't happen again."
Shortstop Adam Everett heard a little bit about the incident, but he knew more than enough to form his opinion.
"That's real weak," he said. "That's bad. I don't care where you're at, to hit a woman is not good."

Chicago, you got a few cheap calls in your favor, like you did with LA. You may think you're all bad. However, you're coming to our turf now. So while, you may think you're cock of the walk, you're not. You're guests. We can be nice, but the inner Bubba in us can come out and smash you. Watch Roadhouse sometime! Chicago, you're on final notice....

Kevin, it's sports, it's supposed to be funny, you and every liberal take scheisse like this too seriously. And it ain't Christian you say? Neither is smacking a visitor's wife. Frickin lecturing on Jesus when you don't even know the man or communicate with him. That's rich.
