Just for the record....

i don't know. are we talking about a billy martin that had lived in mexico for 20+ years? a billy martin that had taken heat for using the same term already within the past 2 years?

I didn't know that. I was trying to create a hypothetical example.

My point is that Ozzie learned some of his social ettiquette from being a Major League player and he shouldn't be burned at the stake for it.

I guess the times are a changing.

well, yeah. I wouldn't burn him at the stake over it. it's still not an acceptable way for a mlb manager to behave in public though.
