The guy messed up, but he knows it, and he owned up to his mistake.

5/9/2006 6:43:54 PM

damn i just read this and was gonna make a thread

His suspension should've been like 10 games.

We've got Barry Bonds on 'riods still playing yet we're suspending a guy forever for tossing (no pun) in some entertainment.

i was just thinking that he needs anger managment,
then i went to the fridge and saw that someone drank all my soda and started cursing out loud,

"Delmon Young's Bat Toss I just enjoy any situation that's patently cut-and-dry, and there's really nothing left to say, but the talking heads feel obligated to come up with something, leading to one of them saying in all seriousness, "you CANNOT throw your bat at an umpire." Really? You think so, Doctor?"

All those fags bashing him forget just how bad they've wanted to do similar things in their lifetime. It's pretty cool this guy actually did it (considering nobody was really injured).

I think the suspension length is reasonable in general...

but in relationship to what other players have gotten away with, it's way too long.

I mean... Roberto Alomar got like 5 games for spitting in the face of an ump only being inches from his face. Palmeiro got 10 games for doing roids and lying about it.

THAT IS THE FUNNIEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN BASEBALL

5/9/2006 8:15:55 PM

its so great because you can't see him throw it, just the bat flying from the side. it reminds me of super troopers where mac throws the bottle at rando in the diner

5/9/2006 8:39:06 PM

i played against him in a tournament down in florida when we were 15 or so and he should have got tossed from that game for showing up an umpire but didnt


he's an idiot, but idiot's are damn good at baseball and the devil rays need all the help they can get.


they haven't had much luck with 1st Pick's: Paul Wilder (always injured, called it quits), Josh Hamilton (we all know the story here), and now Delmon Young.

^is that paul wilder from cary, nc?

5/9/2006 11:03:21 PM

sarcasm

5/9/2006 11:05:26 PM

^^ yea thats paul wilder from cary...i watched that guy hit some bombs in high school....him and eddy reel were the shit back then

5/9/2006 11:14:03 PM

yea i thought it was sort of funny...and i mean seriously everyone that has ever played baseball has been called out on some bullshit pitch way outside and wanted to do the same thing
