That was more entertaining than any basketball game!
That ref got his own momentum used against him, and he hit the floor like a trash bag full of spoiled scrapple.
…I guess Black STRIPES don’t matter…
If that was a punch than I’m Mike Tyson. If you slap a dude, odds are you’re going to get your ass kicked.
I never would have thought shit like this could happen over youth sports but after having kids in Little League and Softball this is an all to common occurence. Some parents are just absolute idiots when it comes to this stuff. It’s a game FFS. Teach your kids some life lessons about not resorting to violence when a call doesn’t go your way.
Ouch! I bet that hurt.
If you can’t land a strike squarely and knock someone out in one blow, don’t even take a swing. Otherwise, you’re gonna go from potential badass to raw ham shank dropped in a piranha tank in 2.4 seconds.

“…hit the floor like a trash bag full of spoiled scrapple.”
…that’s kind of a weirdly specific reference. Just curious as to whether this is common enough around where you live that it’s a daily saying or something, you know, like ‘Crumpled like a potato chip’ or ‘caved like a coal mine’.
…don’t get me wrong, I like it, but sometimes I’m just caught by a word or phrase and want to look at little deeper into the etymology of it since it sounds kinda interesting…
Raw scrapple:

Oh, wait.
Never mind…
@ǝpɐɥsʇɥɓᴉuɹǝdnS — That was a spur of the moment one-shot. I’ve never heard it nor used it before.

….aaaaand he gets an assault charge too!
Dumb@ss
No shortages of foul mouthed, aggressive parents of players.
I can imagine what the big dude said to the referee, they are typically booed, their heritage questioned but yet they don’t respond.
I gave up umpiring and coaching decades ago……too dangerous.
The entire incident is a classic example of the problems we face in America and especially regarding blacks. No respect. You can disagree with a person and still have your respect and respect them. It is ten times worse when an adult…the coach of the team that walked off…..disrespects the refs openly for the student athletes to see. This opened the door for what happened next.
This lack of respect for authority is getting people killed and the percentages of blacks killed because it is ‘Hip’ to disrespect the law including the officers who administrate it is on the rise and will not stop until respect is restored.
I don’t care if you disagree with a referee or law enforcement you still treat the referee and law enforcement officer with respect because that is how we live in a civilized society. These days with attorneys looking for discrimination cases to champion it makes no sense for a black person to challenge authority in the field when they can claim racism and sue for discrimination after the fact.
Honestly though, it is rap culture that is driving this ‘dis the man’ attitude that is destroying our cities and our black families. Ever since the rap movement started this ‘gangsta’ culture has grown and done nothing but put kids and especially black kids and adults in body bags. They do not see that disrespecting authority weakens society and makes it less safe for all of us.
phuqing animals.
The guy announcing the fight made it sound like he was calling a horse race, he was talking way too fast and animatedly about that fight.
It looked like the ratchet spit on the ref and he hit her because of that.
Once again I cannot help but note a common factor.
A truly cerebral sport that attracts the cream of the crop & instills gentlemanly behavior and sportsmanship that carries forward into the duration of a participants life.
Ha Zah!
“Hit the whitey with the righty!” 🤣🤣🤣
Looks to me like he was trying to slap the phone out of the guy’s hand rather than throwing a punch. Oh, and I hate Baylor. And I’m a Baptist.
Typical among certain groups: 3 against one. Then pile on.
Are white atheletes now excluded from “college” sports or are all those gals Rhodes scholars?

…don’t get me started on this. Before I yanked my son out of the public middle school he wanted to try out for basketball, but the Black kids made it very clear that was THEIR sport and they would not tolerate a cracker…
