If you're not used to this behaviour try to watch some soccer match from Yurop

It's worst than that

[gofaster]

To mangle a Rodney Dangerfield joke:

"I went to the fights the other night and a baseball game broke out."

[hawk220]

they showed the whole team clearing the bench and pig-piling on these retards.. what they didn't show was the team beating the toejam out of them..I would have like to have seen that on TV.

"The father, identified by police as 34-year-old William Ligue Jr. of Alsip, and his 15-year-old son were led off the field in handcuffs. Friday morning they were charged with aggravated battery. "

Ms. Ligue, late that night: "Hmmm.....I wonder why they ain't come back from that ball game yet?"

Chicago!

My old boss was from Chicago. He always said, "I'm not prejudiced. I hate everyone."

[john9001]

what do you expect from fans of a game where a " bench clearing brawl" is considered a normal part of the "game"

i prefere a non-violent sport like american football where a team can be penalized for "un-necessary roughness "

Here it is, for those who don't like fancy .jpgs.

It looked to me like justice was achieved.  
Watching the replay I thought:
"Crime"  (Watching the two losers attack the coach)
"AND PUNISHMENT" (When 45 players and coaches beat the toejam out of the two morons)

Follow-up to this story.  Seems that what set this guy off was three-fold:
(a) his team was losing,
(b) his daughter had died recently, and
(c) he had just lost his job.

He obviously was on shaky ground to begin with.  I guess the son went along with whatever his dad did.  I don't know if the kid learned a lesson from this or not.

Seems Mr. Ligue is no stranger to the court system.  Maybe a couple of weeks in the juvenile system will keep his son from becoming an amazinhunk too.

"Ligue......has a variety of previous arrests, including 2000 and 2001 busts for domestic abuse--though both cases were later dropped. According to the following Cook County Circuit Court misdemeanor complaints, Ligue was charged last May with striking his girlfriend 'in the face, head, neck, back, nose with his fist' and with tossing a brick through the window....."

"And from the civil docket, Ligue was sued in 1996 for child support payments by the mother of his teenage son (and Comiskey tag team partner). In an Illinois Circuit Court filing, Kristi Embury sought payments retroactive to Michael's February 1, 1988 birth. While the disposition of Embury's petition is unclear, it is nice to see that messy litigation did not get in the way of subsequent pop and son bonding."

Hehe and I heard some DLinesman for a visiting NFL team yesterday in the interview after the game, talking about his sacks, "and I was hoping someone would come out of the stands like in the KC game so I could throw him down too!"
