Just one more Bobby
















You know that the season is going shitty when the only thing you're looking forward to is a manager getting ejected. Such is the case with my Braves. They couldn't even beat a team of amputee midgets right now, haven't scored a run since the Dark Ages and are as enjoyable to watch as getting molested by a Shark.

In between all that, the only thing I've been looking forward to is Bobby Cox breaking the all-time ejections mark. Bobby finally tied John McGraw at 131 yesterday during yet another loss against the Tigers and he's now just 1 away from history.

MJD noted today that Bobby never really has memorable ejections and I guess I'll agree with that. I really hope that Bobby goes over the top for the historic toss though. I'd want him to run full speed towards the ump, tackle him "Waterboy" style and rupture his spleen, followed by a 3-count pin.

After that I'd want him to go back to the dugout, dropkick Chris Woordward on his knee, followed by giving Pete Orr a piledriver on the concrete floor. Then he can take off his shirt and come back out for a curtain call for the fans, all while cursing violently at Chip Caray.

Awesome.
