Considering his past, you'd think he'd be more careful with his choice of words. Plus, his description of Ozzie was eerily similar to the recent comments of Johnny Miller, who apologized despite Rocko's assertion that it wasn't necessary. And while I agree Ozzie will shrug this shit off, it doesn't justify Lyons' generalization of him and those of similar appearance. This "buddy card" shit may play in private, but not in a public forum. Derek,

Ozzie and Lyons are buddies and his story was clearly meant to do nothing more than amuse. No chance Ozzie bats an eyelash, nor should anyone looking to fill print the implication.
