Old but still fun to watch

That slide was a ***** move.
Ozzie Smith was such a little b!tch in that fight. Threw a couple sucker punches from behind and then got wiped out by Maldonado’s flying fist.
That was back when they actually tried to hit each other. Good stuff.
If that happened in an SEC game now the entire replay staff would faint and then require counseling. **
Imagine how the Cards would’ve reacted if Will had flipped his bat!
State fan: "Will the Thrill! What a player - loved his toughness, grit, attitude, and how he got under the opposing players' skin!"
Same State fan after Johnny Long's homerun: "Yay! Go Johnny! Haha Bianco got tossed!"
Same State fan, after our pitching gave it away: "Boy that Johnny Long, what an ****ole, his antics cost us the game. We don't need trash like that."
We are a fickle bunch.

Agree 100%. If we hadn't walked/HBP the bases loaded in the bottom of the inning, all the bitches on here wouldn't be bitching. We'd be talking about how the legend Johnny Schlong had won the series for us.
When Long hits .400 with 25HR & 90RBI, we can overlook that he’s a total @sshole too.
I am guessing - and this is admittedly only a guess - that Will Clark has had the same fire in him since he was a kid. He didn't start being an *sshole after he hit .400. I'm not saying Johnny Long is Will Clark. I am saying, it's a personality trait. Surely most of you have played sports throughout your life and had guys like this on your team. Personally I like it. Some of my favorite teammates were the ones the other teams hated most. Do I wish Long hit .400 with 25 HR? Well no ****.
Some of us want a guy (not a whole team) like him and will take the good with the bad. Some people would rather have a team with zero passion, no personality, just a whole team of professional robots with blank stares when you do something positive, or when the other teams stomps on your home plate. That's what we've had the last two years. I'm all for trying something different.
Does he need to reign it in sometimes, especially in big moments where it could cost the team? Of course. I'm just not going to crucify a guy on my team for being "too passionate".
Watched the video, and I have this question: why would a referee/umpire of any sport ever try to break up a fight between players? I've never seen any official document (e.g., rule book) that says it's the ref's job to break up fights.
In my lifetime, I've reffed lots of basketball, softball and girls lacrosse games. I've never witnessed a fight during a game, but, if a fight breaks out, then I'm going to stand clear and watch them fight.
Breaking up fights is not in a referee's list of duties or job description . . . is it?
