I don't follow sports so I don't know much about Ozzie Guillen, but for some reason I thought he supported the dictator in venezuela, I think I may have misjudged Guillen's feelings on the topic.

from the article:

Ian Casselberry of Yahoo! explains the background of Guillen's ire:
What beef does Guillen have with Penn? The actor continues to defend Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez. Back in March, Penn appeared on "Real Time with Bill Maher" to criticize the media for going along with the U.S. government's labeling of Chavez as a dictator. Guillen fired off a response on Twitter, saying it was easy for a well-paid celebrity who doesn't live in Venezuela to stick up for Chavez.
Also in the video interview, Guillen speaks of his "brotherly" relationship with former Major League Baseball pitcher Ugueth Urbina, who is serving time in a Venezuelan prison, and his views on the tough Arizona law on illegal immigrants.
