I found this story on deadspin. Essentially a disgruntled baseball father created a website for a single 16000 (!) word diatribe against a college baseball coach.

No one has ever been able to read the entire thing. It's like Ulysses or a JoshfromHollywood Script.

I know nothing about this situation but I’m going to venture a guess that this guy’s son probably wasn’t any good.

but the kid must be smart
My son is a much bigger man than I am, because he did not want me to write and post this letter.

It’s like… a JoshfromHollywood Script.

This is funny, though.

Little Jimmy Sucked

Never had an ERA under 6. Twice had WHIP over 2.

I like how by the end everything was in CAPS and bolded with multi-colored text.

Needs more flashing lights and green background.

So Jimmy threw a good knuckleball from an early age and did really well till he got to college where I stopped reading.

You stopped reading in college? What courses were you taking where you could do that?

The only thing this guy has done is make an ass of himself and emberass his son.

He saw the same thing happen in little league when he was president.

Also, I knew I never should have gotten that “degree in marketing.” Dammit!
