“He threw very well and was in decent spirits considering what’s going on,” Hershiser said.
phew! i thought he might be bummed out after sending someone to the hospital and losing his temper and breaking his finger in a childlike fit of rage against a water cooler. :rolleyes2
lil,
i think not...all star games should be for players who exhibit all star behavior.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...
It's a story...but I'm wondering "what's the WHOLE story"?
What prompted his outburst?
I don't mean to say that whatever it was is justifiable <sp>...but it might help a decision if I knew what prompted such an extreme anger. And what is the extent of the cameraman's injuries? A good sock on the jaw for comments that just begged for a reaction wouldn't be too awful. But, if he's got broken bones and is now in traction...well, that's another story.
Um...guess I still can't comment properly till I know the whole story...*blushes for going on and on about nuttin*

it was there lixy...first page, about half way down........
"On June 17, the left-handed Rogers hurt himself, breaking a bone in his right hand when he punched a water cooler and threw around other coolers in the Texas dugout"
he was upset at being pulled from the game
the dude obviously has a short temper and an infantile attitude

Really? I'm not sure there are enough players that do that to even field a team.

:yikes:
NO...
He was a bad boy and should not be allowed to play.....and have to get some anger management therapy in there too.
What's the matter? Didn't he get his bum patted that day?

isn't bum pattin' in football? i say let him play. the all-star game is based on popularity and ability. in roger's case it will have to be the latter. he's a decent pitcher, let him throw a few inninigs get pissed and break his foot kicking the bench. that would have to be good for TV ratings if nothing else haha.
we could place bets on what Roger's will break...himself...or a journalist

absolutely not! This of course is big news in my corner of the world... and i've said since the day his judgement was handed out by Bud that he shouldn't play.

He has held a press conference to apologize, I hope he doesn't think that'll fix everything...if he cares about the game at all, he will withdraw from the All-Star game, accept his punishment without appeal, & not be a distraction to the other players...
...but then again, I still think I'll win the lottery someday...
