A manager meltdown

I'm sure most of the Sportscenter watchers have seen this already.

This happened yesterday, and is hilarious shit.

The sound sucks, so turn your volume up quite a bit.

Best part is the way the home plate ump sits there and totally ignores him...

That guy will be lucky to coach Little League after this.

He'll be fined a few thou and required to take an anger management course at most.

Don't ya love to know what the ump was thinking:

"Ask your wife if she misses me."

Shit, this guy's temper tantrum could make Lou Pinella jealous!

I laughed when the bat boy walked to the front of the dugout and was like "whoa shit" and dodges something, and I especially laughed when the stadium played "hit the road jack" as he was leaving. Sucks we couldn't hear exactly what he was saying though.

Gotta feel sorry for him but at the same time it's hilarious.

The full extension dive into second base had me rolling.

Best melt since Earl Weaver. Difference is, Earl would do it pretty much every week or two. The ump shoulda asked him if he wanted a shovel as he did his little excavation project at home plate.

I think there should be a best ump melt contest. They can hold it at the all star game along with the homerun derby. Who among active managers would pwn such a contest? Is sweet lou working these days? If so, he's got my vote. Last place would have to be joe torre. Ted Williams dead headless body could show more excitement than Joe.

Thoughts from the tirading coach:

"I could get two mannequins at Sears and umpire better than what I saw this whole series."

"I thought the strike was over," Mikulik said. "When will the real umpires show up? That's what I want to know."

"This ain't my first rodeo. ... I didn't touch anybody. I never bumped anybody. ... I actually cleaned home plate for them, so they should give me a tip for that."

Bwahahaha! Rack this dude.

Maybe, but with his moustache, height, and mannerisms, he seems poised to assume leadership of the Third Reich.

So Andy, how did the 06 Smackoff Party at your crib go? Did you get a chance to break off any epic emails to the Pimp In The Box?

Actually, raise his height by about 2 feet and you'd have Basil Fawlty. I thought he was going to run out of shot and come back with a branch and whack the shit out of home plate with it.
