In case you missed my first post (#18) lifesapitch check out below. I think I've got a pretty good grip, thank you! "hsbaseballfan03, I have to agree with you. No matter the circumstance, a high school player should NEVER cross this line. I gotta believe that the coach at USJ talked directly to the player about this and that it will never happen again -- and that he has reinforced with his entire team that under no circumstances is anyone to question an ump -- and if they do, they're on the bench -- no matter who they are. And as a senior, I'm sure Gant has already apologized to his teammates for this. No doubt it is a moment in this kid's brillant career that he'll always regret -- especially since it was against CBHS and guys he's played with and against. Let him move on."

sorry -- you just nullified your previous post. Under no circumstance should behavior like this be tolerated or justified. I'm sure Gant's parents, teammates and coaches -- and Gant himself -- would tell you the same thing. From the sound of it, we're not just talking about questioning balls and strikes. We're talking about verbal and physical behavior that is unacceptable. Period. It was a mistake. Learn from it and move on!

dude -- speaking of making no sense -- read your post again. Or better yet, ask your English teacher to do it for you. Ouch.

Sorry friend, but the good folks in Jackson aren't to blame for this one. Read the post from the beginning and I think you would have to agree.

I'd suggest someone call coach and warn him about all the Lexington-related posts -- certainly it wouldn't keep happening if he knew about it. Some guys bragging on themselves ... others talking trash ... fathers sticking up for their sons. Perhaps he should talk to them Monday after their next practice! /dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="
