Jimenez getting booed on Sunday.

I would not boo a minor league player unless he did something off field like dog fightingor some other heinous crime.

Billy Rowell just irritated me as he was so cocky with nothing to back it up. He proclaimed right after being drafted he would be a future HOFER. That type of attitude and lousy performance to go with it just rubbed me the wrong way. I can't think though of any other minor leaguer I would boo.

I definintely do that also. I also rally boo Coco Crisp, who I think is a show boating hot dog.

And he's got crazy hair. Who does he think he is being different?

And what type of grown man goes around being called Coco?

He's named after cereal!!! And not even good cereal like Cookie Crisp.

They are all blind, so they don't know who is booing them.

It's the RL equivalent of mocking someone on the internet.

Umpires have a stressful job especially when they are behind home plate. They are traveling all year. The managers yell at them the players yell at them the fans boo them and heckle them. They aren't making fortunes out there. Now some on the Internet is making jokes about them.

Seriously who want that job?

Lots of folks. Plenty of guys doing it in the minors for a lot less pay. No shortage of folks going to Ump school.

Well, I actually thought he was kinda cool for that reason.

I for one don't boo any umpire per se, but may boo a certain call they make that seems terrible. Most umpires are pretty good at the major league level.

It isn't his hair, his name, or anything of that nature why I dislike him. He is a showboat.

Mike Curtis? You mean the guy who missed most of the 1975 season with a "knee injury"? Sally No-Knees should've manned up and walked it off. No wonder he wound up with the Seahawks.

I guarantee you one thing, he could probably still knock you into next week, bad knees and all.

Me too. I also like Milton Bradley. At least his name.

If anything is more satisfying than booing its beating the ever living crap out of a man.

I got it the first time. I was not serious with my response.

Maker of many games....

Spoken like a guy who's been on the delivery of more than a few. :angryfire:
