Best Manager Freak-Out
Quote:
What is the best manager or player melt down you have witnessed? I'm sure Sparky and Sweet Lou will get some votes, but there have been many others throughout recorded baseball history. The crazier, nuttier, wackier the better. I was always a huge George Brett fan, so his comeplete freak out after the pine-tar incident was allways a good one for me.

Don Zimmer's explecative filled tirade after being fired as Cubs' manager. Sweet Lou and the first base throw. Sweet Lou and the Dibble fight. Davey Lopes after Ricky Henderson stole second base with a big lead.

Re: Best Manager Freak-Out
The other famous one is Pete Rose pushing Dave Pallone which got him suspended for 30 games.

Re: Best Manager Freak-Out
Jim Mora's tirades are still the best the Playoffs one with the Colts and the We sucked one with the Saints.

Re: Best Manager Freak-Out
I once saw a Hal McGrae video when he went off on the KC press. He was throwing everything he saw!

Re: Best Manager Freak-Out
Ask former Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda about his opinion of Dave Kingman's performance. Priceless.

Re: Best Manager Freak-Out
A thread about "Best Manager Freak-Out's" with no mention of Earl Weaver? Disgraceful.
