Twittergate….again?

I've lost track how many times already this season the word twitter has come up in regards to the White Sox. More specifically the number of times Ozzie Guillen, his son Oney and Kenny Williams have been involved in some sort of controversy.

We all remember back in Spring Training that Oney quit as Video Coordinator after he tweeted some derogatory remarks about Williams and the franchise. Well Oney was up to it again when he tweeted that Williams wasn't doing his job over the weekend by not communicating properly with his father and Don Cooper. He labeled a story in the Tribune (an interview of Williams) as full of lies.

Williams and Ozzie took turns down playing the incident on Wednesday with both the GM and Manager saying the communication continues to be just fine. This is beginning to be a rerun of a rerun since we've gone through this before.

What needs to happen from here is for Ozzie to once and for all put a muzzle on his son to just plain stop this. Though Ozzie correctly pointed to the fact that Oney is an American citizen and, as a fan,  has the right to say (or tweet) whatever he wants, this whole thing is effecting the perception of the franchise. Either Ozzie needs to put a stop to this or Jerry Reinsdorf needs to go to Ozzie and make that same demand.
