This is a sporting event not a boxing match. You only show that you have no self control. What a bunch of idiots. Yes! you can cheer for different teams in the same stadium with out being violent. Look up sportsmanship in the dictionary. Oh that's right you can't your a bunch of idiots. by: NS0-153 exam1z0-051 examMB2-631 exam

I had gone to the day game on thursday and there was a fight in the 7th or 8th inning. It looks as though it was in the same vacinity as the wednesday night fight, how ironic. The Thursday fight only lasted about 3 minutes though the two men involved really went at it. Security hauled the two men off quickly without any futher trouble.

What a way to show the youth of today how to behave at a baseball game. America's favorite pastime. Those involved in this video all look like adults. Grow Up!

First of all, do you think it is appropriate for a county newspaper
that is supposedly dedicated to local coverage to post a video about a drunken brawl that happened in another state on their homepage?
Second of all, do you think it is appropriate for a newspaper with any
credibility to post a video that uses profane language without any
type of forewarning, especially considering the fact that this video can be seen by anyone on the web, including children? Certainly web blocks are made for reason, but will parents now have to also include the Cape May County Herald in the list of websites they exclude their children from viewing?
It seems as if this newspaper has overlooked any sense of decency in a
blatant attempt to pull in web traffic. It's a shame that a forum
that could initiate policy change, as well as inform its' citizens would turn into the equivalent of a tabloid, looking for readership wherever it can find it.
I think the editors, as well as the reporters, if we can truly give that title to the creators of this site, should, as quickly as possible, remove this video from the site, issue an apology to the public, and take a deep look at the content they distribute to the masses.
