IlliniKrush Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Geezzzus... Alright alright, it was wrong for Simon to do and she overreacted. I'll leave it at that i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 I'm not defending him. I'm just trying to point out that it's not "assualt." There are 4 in the picture. From left to right you see 3,4,2,1. Count the feet/legs. Aha! Aha what...? YOU said the 4th was trailing!! And thanks mreye. I see #4 now... well, their feet anyway I said Aha! (now i see it!) because the 4th has been pointed out. I assumed the 4th was trailing because i didn't see it, and knew there was in fact 4 sausages participating in the famed race.

Steff Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 I'd like to know what you'd think after you just got hit in the head with a baseball bat while wearing a sausage costume What's the point Randall? How can this guy be defended, there's just no point in doing it, all that can happen is something bad. Play baseball and don't worry about other crap She didn't get hit in the head. He hit her in the head of the costome, which is about three feet higher than her actual head. It's still a "head", and i don't see how that justifies what he did at all And hitting her in the costume head was good enough to knock her down wasn't it? Did you see it Koch..? He didn't take a swing at her. Good grief... how many pages long do we think this thread will get. I must be reading this wrong Where did anyone say it was "ok"...?? Now it's ok because he didn't take a swing at her? The guy is an idiot for doing it. Oh I never said or implied anything of the sort. DONT PUT WORDS IN MY MOUTH. YOU are making it sound like he took a swing at her and I clarified that he didn't. Talk about overreacting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SweetJfour Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 I have to give big ups to my boy the Bratwurst for having the presence of mind to leave the others behind and go on to win the race. Talk about capitalizing on an opportunity. Way to go buddy!!!!!!! But seriously, the way those suits are designed, where that girl got hit didn't even hit her. The head on those suits are completely empty. The person in those suits eyes are at chest level. Granted she may have fallen and bumped her knee, but lets not blow this out of proportion!!!!!!!!!!

And i'm sure Simon knew that. But those costumes aren't very easy to run around in and keep your balance anyway, so any thing striking her would be enough to knock her over. I just don't think he should have taken that risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way Dan Patrick - a veteran weiner racer and the 16 year old kid - both said that the costume is top heavy and unstable anyway. NOT THAT THAT MAKES WHAT HE DID OK.

Spiff Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 i saw it on sportscenter last night, and it was f***ing hilarious. the first one goes down, and then the other one tumbles on top of it. they showed it in slow motion like i imagined. it was funny too when the other two stood around their fallen brothers, but didn't know what to do. you could tell the sportscenter anchor wanted to laugh when he said "the two sausages were treated for scraped knees."

IlliniBob72 Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Wait, did Simon pull out a knife and slash the sausage??? It's also pretty hasty to call for the guy being waived without even seeing the incident. From seeing it it is obvious that he didn't mean to hurt anybody, and really, no one WAS hurt. He tapped the big sausage head *ahem* with the bat and she tumbled. For the Brewers front office guy to say he'd never seen anything so sickening inside or outside a stadium, he needs to watch the news more. I wouldn't go so far as to say that the girl overreacted, since she probably had no clue as to what had happened, but like the other racer said, those things are top-heavy and it doesn't take much to send it out of kilter. And I doubt Simon had a big plot to do this, so he probably didn't consider the consequences. Everyone needs to just laugh it off and move on...and get that Brewers official out into the real world.

I agree Bob, after watching the video I was like lol. Simon did it just like players sometimes get in scuffles with the mascots. I don't believe there was any harm intended.
