Best argueing manager of all time?

Me my vote goes to Earl Weaver of Baltimore. He was a classic and no-one will touch him, turning his baseball backwards so he can get up closer to the umpire and those temper tantrums he would throw, but the classic is kicking the dirt on the umpire's. Plus wasnt he the one that got up and argued a call cant recall if it was a strike or a ball, but he eventually after being already ejected covered home plate in dirt until it completely hidden.

I loved watching the O's when weaver managed the game, he was entertaining thats for sure, you younger generation missed out on some classic fueds between Earl and the umpires didnt they fans..

Update:

turning hisbaseball cap backwards I meant to add!!!!

Update 2:

Oh my god everyone tune in to what conner stated. Wellman for the Braves had me in tears, that was classic, so he the one that covered home plate, thanks.

    Ya that braves minor league coach would get my vote. I was laughing so hard when he was crawling near the mound and then later giving a salute to the umpires and crowd

  • Agreed. Earl Weaver was an absolute beast, and while i wasn't around while he coached, i've seen replays, and damn, that stuff is funny. Lou Piniella is another classic. Many, many memories, haha.
