RIP to one of the best of all time.

These are the 2 best youtube videos ever.

The first is an umpire fight

The second is a part of his radio porgram that went out live over the airwaves.

Didn't Earl Weaver "invent" kicking dirt on the umpire's shoes, or was that Billy Martin?

His answer to the question about when to plant tomatoes is just an all time classic. RIP Earl.

What a legend-one of the all time greats.

Weaver was funny when he got really pissed off and got tossed. He made baseball a lot of fun to watch.

I think I knew Alice Sweet at one time.

The advice is timeless though.
