I have changed my mind - I now LOVE Bobby Cox
Used to hate him, but his antics today in the top of the 2nd inning have garnered my undying affection.

3. LOL
I love it when baseball managers get tossed from games and continue to carry on for another 5 minutes kicking dirt, throwing bases and other temper tantrums.

I know, I am a little sick in the head.

6. So, assuming you are a football (meaning soccer) fan.
Do you like the brawling in the stands?

10. Football riots?
No, they are the ugly side of the game. Hooliganism is a big problem where football is concerned, especially international matches (particularly ones involving England, I am ashamed to say).

He is the manager for the Atlanta Braves. I was watching the first part of the Braves @ Mets game before the Twins game started.

19. How the hell?
Do you end up being a Badger fan? Don't get me wrong I am with you on the Twins and the Badgers, but I do think that the Vikings are evil.

22. Come on
Mason keeps winning the Music City Bowl, isn't that enough for you? I could go into a Chad Hartman or Dan Barreiro type rant, but i don't work for KFAN.

25. I am guessing, that since you think the Vikings are evil
You are a cheesehead!

I think I could sustain a rant better than both Barreiro and Hartman.

27. Yes,
I was born and raised in Superior WI, and my wife is from Duluth, MN, hence I live in Duluth now. Even though they are just over the river from each other. As far as college football though I am a pround member of the Notre Dame nation, being a good irish catholic. Hell I still cry during the last 10 minutes of Rudy.

26. I appreciate managers like that
They have their players' backs, so the players do not generally get tossed.
