SPECIAL EDITORIAL NOTE FROM SPORTS_NUT, 2/26/2011
.
Welcome to the retirement edition of Funny Sports Quotes.
.
The Funny Sports Quotes blog was created in 11/2007 after I could see I could become a blogger very easily using Google's 3-step process for creating a blog online.
.
For me, like most, work is not my idea of a fun experience, so I had to choose the topic that I would most enjoy pursuing and that, for me, was finding and posting funny sports quotes for entertaining and, in some cases, educating an audience on facets of sports even the most ardent sports fans may not have been aware of.
.
At the same time, I decided to compile a database of funny sports quotes that sports fans and quote fans could visit for "one-stop" shopping, thereby helping them to avoid the need to search elsewhere for sports quotes.
.
So, from 11/2007 until 2/2011. I have compiled quotes on the Funny Sports Quotes blog and its sister blog, FSQuotes, that is accessible only from the Funny Sports Quotes blog.
.
As of 2/26/2011, I believe I have achieved my objective first set in 11/2007, which signals for me the end of my funny sports quotes database project.
.
Kindly note that I have already made the last post (SI Swimsuit) to the blog, shut off further entries to Comments, and I will shut off the email address sports.quotes@gmail.com on 03/14/2011.
.
Also note that many features previously cited on this page have been removed, so that a bare-bones FSQ remains for your future reference.
.
I do hope that my venture was successful in bringing a smile to your face or a skip to your step, since that was all FSQ was created for, your entertainment and pleasure.
.
In closing, I wish you and yours, Godspeed!

BASEBALL QUOTES
Fox Sports has added Ozzie Guillen to its 2009 World Series crew
.
Fox has selected Ozzie Guillen to do pre and post game
analysis for the 2009 World Series games.
.
Here are some baseball quotes Qzzie has become so famous for:
.
On himself:
.
Then they have a Mexican win the World Series in two years. And they're saying he doesn't have experience, he never managed in baseball before. Well, too fucking bad. What's the difference? No one knows the difference anyway (between Mexico and Venezuela).
.
On his team:
.
We have to apologize to the fans watching this thing because I'm tired of watching this day in and day out. Wow. You thought I was a good manager. Well, look at me now. I'm not that good. You're as good as your players are.
.
On Magglio Ordonez:
.
He's a cunt, that's what he is. He's another Venezuelan cunt. Fuck him. He has an enemy. Now he has a big one. He knows I can fuck him a lot of different ways. He better shut the fuck up and play for the Detroit Tigers. Why do I have to apologize to him? Who the fuck is Magglio Ordonez? Why ever talk about me? He doesn't do shit for me. But if he thinks I'm his enemy, he has a big enemy. He knows me.
.
On Alex Rios:
.
What have I seen from Rios? A lot of outs. The only batting ninth guy making $5 million was me. This mother fucker is making $10, $12, $14 million, he ain't going to be batting ninth [in 2010]. I'm going to make sure he earns his money. But right now I have to put him there because he's struggling. Next year, if we have Rios batting ninth we're in deep shit once again.
