That won't work with this crowd.....you'd have to hit them in a vital area to make your point. 😛

Yeah but with most "member" on ATOT there is nothing there 😉

Technically, there is something there. It's just too small to be measured by any system known to man. 😀
What?! I thought everyone here was hung like a water buffalo.!??! 😕

Buncha freaking liars. :disgust:

Damn, my ruler must be calibrated for water buffalos then. 😉
 
Ok..saw the video at lunch.

No way should he have been arrested.

Barely hit her! More like a bonk 😉

And I guess those things are top heavy and down she went.

The bat never even touched her. He barely jabbed the top of the costume head and she lost her balance. Everyone acts like they've never wanted to tap a giant sausage before. Most of us just have better impulse control or a lack of opportunity.

And most of us are also male and heterosexual... 😉

i dunno, i can't see the video (using solaris here... too lazy to get any media players 😛), but i'm inclined to believe that if i'm wearing a giant sausage costume, a tap with a bat is not going to hurt very much. the woman didn't even want to press charges.

just reading all the news articles, it seems like there's a lot of blowhards making a big deal out of such a small thing... esp that mayor or whatever that keeps on talking about how "outrageous" it is. yeesh.
 
The woman said it didn't hurt. If you watch the video, Simon was just goofing off. He didn't try to take her head off or anything. The girl even said that too big a deal was being made out of it.

If she had not fallin down, it would have been on sportscenter as a play of the week. The only reason a big deal is being made is because she fell. The costume is much better than the girl and the tap of the bat just caused her to lose her balance.

Big freakin deal.
 
You should have heard all the stupid hype about this on the Milwaukee talk shows yesterday. He barely hit her. She didn't want to press charges, because she knew he was messing around. Yet, the media makes this guy out to be Gacey or something. Really weird.
 
Thanks for the link to the non realplayer version, bbkat. Good poll on that page too: "Who would you want to have your back in a street brawl?" brautwurst, hot dog, italian sausage, polish sausage.

After viewing the video, my conclusion is this is a tempest in a teapot. He was just (stupidly) fooling around, clearly didn't intend to hurt the mascot, and is willing to apologize.

Thankfully I moved from Milwaukee before the sausage race (or National League) took hold.
 
and that was the first time since peewee herman that anybody has been arrested beating a sausage in public...
