This seems like something someone would make up as a joke, it's that unbelieveable to me.

He should be stood up in front of a nice wall and all the parents of BOTH teams get to throw baseballs (regulation hard ball) at his head and groin.

What a piece of work.

Give him a good, solid public caning, followed by a week or two in the stocks at the town square.

Amen SOB. can we put a sign around his neck, listing his crimes?

I was thinking a plaque on the stocks would be good, but a sign around the neck couldn't hurt.

Any coach worth his salt knows you disable players on the opposing team... what an idiot.

Eric Forsythe, the president of the R.W. Clark Youth Baseball League, said league organizers investigated accusations against Downs before the T-ball season ended earlier this month, but could not prove that he did anything wrong.

If Downs is convicted of any crime, he won't be allowed to be a coach next year.

Huh? The guy is still able to coach? What kind of screwed up league is this?

I say those punishments are too nice. I say give the kid who was accosted a baseball bat, blindfold him then hang the coach by his testicles and tell he kid to swing away at the pinata'!:aok
