Ozzie Guillen Sides With Barstool Sports In John Cusack Beef

Former White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen had a lot to say about a recent incident involving actor John Cusack.

During a playoff home game this week, a Barstool Sports employee, “White Sox Dave”, confronted Cusack, who was repping the Sox. He told the decorated actor that he wasn’t cool with him showing out for the White Sox after being a Cubs guy during their recent run of playoff baseball.

The confrontation spilled over to social media, where Cusack took some pointed shots at “White Sox Dave” and Barstool Sports.

Prior to Game 4 of their series with the Astros, Ozzie Guillen spoke on the situation.

He didn’t say names, but Guillen made it clear that he was on team Barstool Sports for this one.

John Cusack sent out a whole bunch of tweets and insults at White Sox Dave and Barstool Sports for confronting him about his fandom. But he didn’t have anything to say to Ozzie Guillen after he spoke out against him.

Given Ozzie’s status as a legend around the city, that was probably a good call.
