A friend of mine was at this game last night and was trying to tell us about it this morning. The manager of the Mississippi Braves (a farm team of the Atlanta Braves) must have had a stress breakdown or been high on something. This evening it is on Fox News website (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,277393,00.html). They include a link to this YouTube video (http://youtube.com/watch?v=hUcFWPgB8oY) of it that pretty much covers it all.
I would just about bet that team will have a new manager soon.
On second thought, looking at some of the other YouTube videos of ejection tantrums, I guess this guy was just being a copycat. Sheesh! What ever happened to the days of sportsmanship and professionalism.
An example of terrible judgement and outrageous behavior, Never to be outdone with the exception of some of our elected politicians, Both sides mind you....
Not an example for the children,

My 2 cents worth:
It's a sad day when over paid, spoiled film stars and sports figures are put up on pedestals as role models. This only teaches our young that it is OK to act out in an adolescent and childish manner.
I have refused to go to any sports game or major cinema event for years as my own little protest against these type people.
I think we would be well served to all take note and find different role models for our children.

I can't agree with you more. I deal with whiny rock stars all day for a living, but at least some of them have actual talent. What kills me is all of these pro sports "stars" who bi""" & moan that they don't like this or that, won't do thier jobs, or can't stay out of trouble with the law, and they are paid millions each year, when in the real world they lack the intelligence and skills necessary to correctly say "Want Fries With That, or much less spell it.
What's wrong with the American people that we treat these freakin' idiots as "idols".
Bull cookies!
Sorry for the rant, but couldn't agree more,
