Then he should coach basketball. I don't care whether his whole family was killed by high inside fastballs...it is simply irrelevant to his behavior tonight, and the fact that FOX brought it up in his defense is ridiculous.

This and the atrocious behaviour of the Sox and the ALDS(the Lilly, Lowe, and Ramirez, incidents) and you says the MLB is defending the Yanks is hilarious, if they are defending anybody its the Sox.

Dunno about the Lilly incident, but I saw nothing wrong with Ramirez's trot around the bases. I meant, Sammy Sosa can jump around like a moron whenever he hits a long fly, but if Manny walks a few steps after hitting the BIGGEST HOME RUN OF HIS LIFE, he's some kinda villain? Lay off the McCarver shtick, dude.

And Lowe didn't do anything wrong in the eyes of anyone but Tejada, whose previous tantrum halfway between third and home cost the A's a run and eventually the series.

Side note to Tejada: Lose the nancy-boy attitude before the Mets sign you. Thanks.

Anyway...they should just rename this the Who's Gonna Lose to the Cubbies Series.

Really, Tejeda should have done his job and continued on home and let the third base coach argue with the ump.

They also brought up the Clemens' Piazza beaning, but then said it was irrelevent, while They tried to start painting Pedro as a monster.

As the Red Sox website says--

before the benches cleared after Manny Ramirez took an inside pitch from Clemens.

Inside my ass. It was, if not an inch over, over the plate.

I'd like to take this moment to say I think Johnny Damon is one of the most classy players in baseball.

BTW, I've just checked a pic, neither Pedro nor Zimmer have a clenched fist for whatever it's worth. They both went to what looks like slap each other.

Umm he had a reaction dude, knocked him down. Could have been much worse.

And as for Manny, he overeacted as well.

But apparently now, its coming out that the fight in the bullpen was started by jeff nelson and someone else.

Even if he did wave a flag in the Yankees bullpen that give no excuse at all for those players. That would be like me going around beating up Athletic fans just because they are at An Angel game at Anaheim stadium, it would be retarded.

How can you charge Zimmer for assault? If you charge Zimmer for assault, then you have to charge Ramirez for the same thing.

You're trying to tell me that taunting is the bad deed of the game? Fuck that. Don't be stupid.

Dude, saying your going to throw a 95 mph fastball at somehead's is not just a taunt, and you know that. Practice your own advice.

Nelson is a shithead(for his entire career), neither Rich and I are defending him.

Did you miss the part where Zimmer attacked Pedro? Because I missed the part where Ramirez put his hands on anyone. (I actually only saw this in replays.)

And even if he did, coaches should be held to a higher standard.

Um, I'm not saying that Ramirez should have been charged, I'm just ridiculing the suggestion that Zimmer should have been charged.

Your attempt at ridicule is doing a poor job addressing the whole "attack vs. lack of attack" point I make.

Well, it was failure in humor, it came out funnier in my head. I wasn't contesting your point at all. Do you honestly believe that Zimmer should have been charged for assault?

i believe he should have been ejected
