Bobby Cox - We Salute You!

Forget Barry Bonds, Bobby Cox has recently set a record to be proud of by becoming the manager with the most career ejections from major league baseball games. We applaud this type of management and standing up to umpires.

"It was the 133rd ejection of Cox's career. He picked up his 132nd in the opener of a series against the San Francisco Giants, eclipsing the mark initially set by the Hall of Famer known as "Little Napoleon,'' who spent his long managing career with the New York Giants in the early part of the 20th century.

Now I've never been a fan of the Braves, and frankly, the tomahawk chop has irritated the hell out of me since the first year Braves fans ripped it off (the 2006 post-season was a blessing). But to surpass a guy nicknamed 'Little Napoleon', Bobby will certainly be a first ballot inductee into the Officating Disaster Hall of Fame, if there ever is one. This may also go down as one of those records thought to be unbreakable, along with the DiMaggio's hit streak and Cy Young's win total...

Unfortunately, Bud Selig was unable to attend this joyous occasion. I mean what to baseball commisioners do, really?
