Playing for Peanuts has all the poop on minor league baseball, including this new-to-me rant from Wally Backman, managing a minor-league baseball team somewhere, presumably on planet Earth. And it is truly awesome, so I don’t care if it’s old. It’s the kind of profanity-laced love one could only find from a athletic coach. Or a drunk uncle.

Are we sure this isn’t a speech from the movie “Never Back Down”?
UU, it’s actually from the Andy Dick film, “Never Act Sane”.
“My father worked in profanity the way other artists might work in oils or clay. It was his true medium, a master.”
Fuck my ass, it wasn’t so fucking bad.
That’s the same speech I gave my daughter’s soccer team last weekend. That reminds me…would anyone here have been offended if I called their daughters “cunts”? I can’t believe how pissed some of those cunts’ mothers got.
+1 Papa.
Wally Backman = RBI Baseball X factor

what’s the problem here? coaches use spicy language? This is nothing, nothing i say, compared to my boss today or my high school football coach.
the guy uses naughty F words, but his tone is respectful and calm. what’s the big deal?
