OUCH!

If you haven't already seen it, check out Bud Black taking down Milton Bradley: http://youtube.com/watch?v=Iutmc9zR5x4

Bradley went down with a torn ACL, and the Padres playoff and World Series dreams may not be far behind. What a terrible situation. I'm sure many lawyers out there will be in a hurry to blame Bud Black or the umpire Mike Winters who certainly seemed to instigate things. Still, at the end of the day, the blame should fall on Milton himself, who allowed a cocky umpire to show him up.

On the flip side, I hope MLB deals harshly with an umpire that became part of the show. Umpires are like offensive lineman, doing their best when you don't hear about them.
