Protecting Williams
Published 12/13/2007 by StatsGuru at Baseball Musings
Guess who owns FireKennyWilliams.com ? That's right. Major League Baseball went out and snatched the domain, presumably so no one else could. And MLB did it through GoDaddy.com, which means they're paying a mere $9.99 or less to keep someone from saying disparaging things about the White Sox General Manager. This doesn't appear to be a case of MLB grabbing all possible fireGM names. Firedavedombrowski.com, firebillybeane.com and firenedcolletti.com are all available. Firetheoepstein.com, firebriancashman.com, firebillbavasi.com and fire omarminya.com are taken by other people.

FireKennyWilliams.com has been taken - by Major League Baseball Quick...somebody check to see if Andy MacPhailure.com is taken! White Sox General Manager Kenny Williams has now expressed his frustrations … “If I ever leave this job or if I ever get fired,” Williams says, “I’m not coming back to the American League. I’m going to the National League. You’ve got a fighting chance over there.” So with this in mind (and the White Sox fanbase growing edgy) you’d think that some disgruntled fan has already snatched up FireKennyWilliams.com to rant about the recent misfortunes of ...

Kenny Williams Can't Be Fired Now

Dusty Baker was clearly run out of town by the likes of firedustybaker.com. Don't expect that to happen with the loudmouth general manager on Chicago's south side, however. firekennywilliams.com is already owned - and likely won't be open for business any time soon. That's because the domain name has been registered by none other than Major League Baseball. Insecure much, fellas?
