Stupid Fans

Good for Mike Piazza. He is pressing charges against some idiot that threw a bottle of water at him while he was standing in the on-deck circle.  Hopefully, this gets the point across to morons all over the country.  Just sit back and watch the game.  No, you don t have the right to throw things at players or onto the field in general.  You have the right to sit in your seat and watch the game.  Stand, cheer, buy a hot dog, but stop being stupid.  There are kids around most likely.  Therefore, have the common sense enough not to scream curse words at the players or refs.  Will that really change anything?  Did it really make you feel better and more important?  I am guessing if you actually thought about it, the answer would be no. Hopefully, this little gesture will help people realize that fans have a responsibility too.  I say good for you, Mike.
