Sweet, sweet Lou. Hilarious.

Gotta shake my head at the bleacher bums there though.

I just the Lou explosion. I don't see how that helps anything.

on another note, its seems really immature for a 60 year old dude to be acting like a 4 year old throwing a tantrum.

I don't follow baseball much, but that's my limited opinion on it.

Lou is not trying to act like a 4 year old, he is trying to do anything he can to fire this team up. Our team looks like 4 year olds out there.

Its also surprising to me that nobody tries to stop him or escort him off the field. They just let it go until he decided to stop. And the fans throwing stuff on the field, theres is there no stadium security??

kinda makes me appreciate the strict rules of the NBA.

The fans are frustrated. This team has the potential to win ballgames but we can't get it done. Fans shouldn't be throwing things on the field.

Once you start following baseball more, you'll see this wasn't uncommon. Lou can get a little more riled up than most, but managers throwing thing and going crazy at umps for long periods of time isn't unusual at all. It's a motivational tactic that's often used.

While I'm here, today's game is exactly what Lou had in mind when he threw this tantrum. This sort of "explosion game" is exactly why managers do what Lou did.
