White Sox’s blowup doll comes under scrutiny

http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/8111970/White-Sox's-blowup-doll-comes-under-scrutiny- CHICAGO (AP) - Coming off an 0-6 road trip when they managed just nine runs, the Chicago White Sox returned home Tuesday and were confronted with more questions about two female blowup dolls than they were about their shaky offense. Before Sunday's game in Toronto, an unnamed player positioned two nude blowup dolls in the clubhouse with bats of the players fanning out around them — a ritual of sorts to try and get the team out of its slump. Some found the shrine more tasteless than amusing. Manager Ozzie Guillen said it was a joke that has been blown out of proportion after it got play in the press. General manager Ken Williams, who had lunch Tuesday with Guillen, said he was disappointed by the display and was assured it wouldn't happen again. Foxsports.com 5/7/08
