IlliniKrush Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Frank Robinson had a stare down with an ump for 44.5 seconds. Showed the whole thing on SC. Pretty hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFanForever Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Best part was when the ump finally gave up and said "unbelievable". It was classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wsox08 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I always miss the good stuff on SC.. The few times I turn it on it is garbage on New Mexico or some other damn state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Frank Robinson seemed to be arguing for the sake of arguing. Was mad cuz the strike call was late. Gee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 It was one of the better moments I have seen on sportscenter in the past 5 years. Robinson has a great poker face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxin' Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I was cracking up the entire 45 seconds. I just kept wondering when it was going to end, and even after the 45 seconds they had another stare down for a few seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where I came from there were 2 different things, a staring contest, and a blinking contest. The blinking was when you don't blink and the staring was that you could blink, just not look away.

Punch and Judy Garland Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 That's why I like Frank. He's probaby not a nice guy. He is 70 years old and he hit 586 homers. He doesn't give a damn what anybody thinks. Kind of cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
