I'm glad that I have a better memory then you and, as the PU, have a pencil to write with & paper to write on.

Sure they can fight and I can sit and watch from the sidelines. What preventive measures are in place to stop other situations like this from occuring in the first place? I do not want this to turn into another blame the ump for allowing it to happen campaign because I know he wasn't responsible. Are we as a society going to continue to allow our athletes to get away with murder?

What happens to the lunatics who began this mess? What about the other lunatics running after each other for NO apparent reason? Are they going to face criminal assualt charges? If management continues to list names of these lunatics on their playing roster, are they also going to face possible civil liability issues as employers? I would like to know that one "out of control" HC was made aware of his responsibilities within the organization. If the word doesn't get out, why write anything down?
