A Little League coach is suing his own player for over $500,000

By TED BERG    1 hour ago     @ogtedberg

A California Little League coach is suing one of his own 14-year-old players for unintentionally hitting him with a thrown helmet, according to KCRA 3 in Sacramento.

The coach, Alan Beck, claims that the player’s carelessness led to the helmet hitting him in his Achilles tendon and tearing it, and wants over $500,000 for his pain, lost wages and medical bills.

The player’s father, Joe Paris, says his son threw his helmet into the air while crossing home plate with the game-winning run — which happens practically every time there’s a walk-off hit and doesn’t seem anywhere close to reasonable grounds for a lawsuit.

If by some chance you don’t know what it looks like when a baseball player scores from second base and throws his helmet, dedicated reporter Mike Teselle of KCRA 3 demonstrated:

Shut up bitch. I am working on multiple suits right now. I'm sure many of these aches and pains are due to a couple of those little shits I coached through the years!

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

You meet a man on the Oregon Trail. He tells you his name is Terry. You laugh and tell him: "That's a girl's name!" Terry shoots you. You have died of dissin' Terry.
