Texas Baseball Coach Augie Garrido Flips Out
Baseball, College Athletics May 4th. 2011, 2:30pmThis is Texas Longhorns’ baseball manager Augie Garrido in various states of freaking out. Language is really NSFW. He chews out umpires, his team, his wife – no one is safe from the venom of Augie Garrido. I’m so inspired right now. I’m going to go hit the batting cages for a half-hour, then scream at birds in the parking lot until I pass out. [Hot Clicks via Spence]

I am Texas’d out today

I enjoyed this greatly. I cannot believe that umpire didn’t throw him out. Angel Hernandez would’ve tossed him 4 times in the first 6 words.

Now you know how non-Patriots fans feel on every CBS NFL Sunday.

Fantastic. He pretty much called his players a bunch of pussies for not knowing what it’s like to be in a gang fight. That was rich. I enjoyed this as well.

I can’t take an old man in baseball pants seriously.

I also enjoyed him emphasizing how much of an ass kicking they had just been through while the camera pans over to the scoreboard to show they only lost 4-2.

i don’t miss those post-game verbal lashings while taking a knee in the outfield grass. when my college coach was really fucking pissed, he’d tell us to head out to the centerfield fence so that fans/other players/spectators wouldn’t be able to hear what he was prepared to say.

i also love how he stared some poor bastard down for getting picked off first.

So, CRM is out of the running for a job at the Longhorn Network.

Wally Backman still does it better though.

Watched this last night, I am frightened to watch it at work. I too love how he calls out his players for not being in fights. I also like how he calls them out for not caring in 15 minutes about the game.

Wally fucking Backman is a legend.

On Garrido’s wiki:
On January 17, 2009, Garrido was arrested by Austin police for driving while intoxicated.[2] Police reported that Garrido was driving a Porsche Cayenne west on 6th Street at about 1:00 a.m., when a DWI enforcement officer pulled the coach over since he did not have his headlights on. After taking a sobriety test, Garrido admitted to the officer that he consumed five glasses of wine and was intoxicated. The school suspended him from coaching the first four games of the Longhorns’ 2009 season, although he will still be paid during his suspension. Garrido publicly apologized, calling his misdemeanor a “serious mistake”. He will be sentenced on April 30, 2009.[3][4] He pled guilty to the charge on February 2, 2009.[5]

Who knew college baseball coach paid that well? I sure as shit didn’t.

Oh c’mon. This is a prerequisite for amateur baseball management.

It also says:
In November 2008 The University of Texas Board of Regents approved a salary package that raises Garrido’s guaranteed income from $640,000 to $800,000. The contract includes automatic raises, increasing his annual salary to over $1 million by 2012.[1]

The Longhorns were apparently swinging the bats like Helen Keller at a pinata party.
