Coon Rapids Little League Spitters

From ESPN:

    COON RAPIDS, Minn. -- The Coon Rapids Little League club has apologized after two Minnesota players spit into their hands before shaking hands with players from Chandler, Ariz., who had eliminated Coon Rapids from the Little League World Series.

    Coon Rapids manager Mark Lowe issued the apology after learning that ESPN video televised nationally showed two players spitting into their hands before the traditional postgame handshakes after Wednesday's 9-2 loss.

    Lowe called it a "lapse in judgment.''

    "We apologize to the players and coaches of Arizona, to the people of Coon Rapids and Minnesota. We have reflected poorly on the community,'' the statement read. The statement was released by Little League officials from the tournament in South Williamsport, Pa.

    Coon Rapids National finished 1-2 in the series for 12- and 13-year-olds.

Are you the parents of one of these little f*cktards? Are you proud of him? Are you proud you raised him to be a poor Loser? You have to be Democrats.

I'm not shocked. I know the head coach kid. He's trouble in school. this is something he would do. They came home lastnight. But I can tell you he willplay baseball next year. I would not be shocked if he did the samething. Thats Coon Rapids baseball. Parents are blind! If not for the cameras nothing would have been said. All those paents in the stands and not one saw this. Come on please. I'm sure this was not the first time.
 
It is poor sportsmanship on the part of the Coon Rapids team, their coach and parents of the players - I agree with you. Thanks for commenting.
