Wally Backman Thinks You Suck

We thought we'd share one more Wally Backman tirade with you this afternoon. We've been thinking, and we decided that he is what would happen if Earl Weaver and Kenny Powers had a baby. No disrespect meant to Earl or Kenny.

This video was shared with us by John Fitzgerald from the minor league baseball documentary Playing for Peanuts. He gave us the perfect lede:

"Here's a clip of Wally going ballistic on his team in a postgame speech... The best part is that his team started the season with six wins, then they lost, dropping them to 6-1."

As with many things Wally Backman-related, this is not safe for work, kids, or the religious. Enjoy!

Wally Backman Amazes and Frightens Us

These days, Wally Backman is rarely referred to as a "former New York Mets second baseman." No, now he is better known as the lunatic South Georgia Peanuts skipper with hilarious anger management and self-control issues.

Seriously, he needs his mouth washed out with a stiff bar of soap. And for me to say that is pretty incredible considering I have the vocabulary of a sailor.

Obviously, every manager in the history of America's Pastime has disagreed with one call or another made by an umpire. Sometimes that call is a disputed home run.
