I can't view it right now at work, but I'll watch when I get home. This is the guy who was playing War Games on the field right? I heard about it, but I haven't seen it yet.
I will never understand why some baseball managers think that having a temper tantrum like a spoiled 4-year-old is anything other than idiotic.
Lame. He may have started off angry, but he wasn't after a while as evidenced by the fact he bowed to the fans. The whole thing came across as some douche bag just trying to get on SportsCenter. It was just stupid.
He actually got suspend by the Braves for 3 games. The Southern League hasnt handed down their punishment yet.
Ahhh. Well Pinella got 4 games, so I guess once the league passes down punishment, he'll be out for a week.
The best part about this video is watching is the ump looking at him like he is a complete lunatic(which btw he is) I don't understand the whole covering the plate with dirt thing, that isn't really proving anything, is it? The ump only needs to get out his little sweeper and brush it off. IMo this just seemed like a pathetic attempt for a no name AA manager to get his name on the sports clips. Has anyone ever seen Billy Martin blow kisses to the crowd and bow after one of his famous tirades?
You missed the point. He covered the plate with dirt fully. Then he redrew home twice the size it should be in the dirt. That's great stuff there. I don't care if this tool did it for publicity, it was funny.
That has to be one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Especially with the whole crawling thing first. :breakdance: :lol:
Another baseball manager goes crazy Classic with a capital ASS. Phil Wellman, manager of the Mississippi Braves, throws the tantrum of a lifetime. I just :rofl2: everytime i see this video. And you can't top his grenade tossing impersonation. How original. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBzPbS7rL8k&mode=related&search=
