We’re Thankful For This High School Softball Coach’s Bullshit And Laziness

This excerpt from a news story apparently detailing the recently-completed softball season of Rayne High in Louisiana was already good before you get to the end. There were typos. There was a crazy name. There was weird phrasing. But that last paragraph. That last paragraph.

America: Is This Umpire A Delightful Character, Or An Asshole Who Upstages Little Kids?

A fair question, I believe. Because, on the one hand, the strikeout call itself is pretty funny. This umpire has some type of back spasm, shouts the standard unintelligible ump-speak, and reaches toward the heavens as if he’s calling strike three on God himself. It’s an interesting spectacle, and provides entertainment to the loads of parents watching someone else’s kid strike out.

Then again, what happens when it’s your kid who strikes out? The kid feels bad enough already, because he struck out in Little League (a shameful, shameful fate for any 12-year-old), but to make things more insulting during your family’s public failure, some idiot in a catcher’s mask is gonna bebop and skat all over the place? Infuriating.

What say you, America? Fair or foul on this hot-dogging Little Leage ump? [Busted Coverage]

Blake Griffin, seeing the giant Chris Paul baby head, carried it into the locker room during LA’s postgame celebration. Naturally, he and his Lob City affiliates brought it on the plane with them. Photos, after the jump.
