Hilarious manager ejection

I was wasting some time on YouTube this afternoon and eventually came across this hilarious video of a minor league baseball manager getting ejected from a game.

I just read on Yahoo that Susan Boyle was involved in a couple of strange incidents recently — both of which included loud “outbursts” and “cussing” from the Britain’s Got Talent star.

Tony Kornheiser leaving MNF

I usually don’t pay too much attention to broadcasters when I’m watching a sporting event. I hardly ever notice them, unless they’re extremely good.
