Brent Bowers is an Asshole


    Please read this mess!

    Brent Bowers is out as manager of the Edmonton Capitals in the wake of a homophobic tirade directed at openly gay umpire Billy Van Raaphorst that earned Bowers an ejection from a game July 31 in Orange County, Calif.

    The Capitals announced Saturday that Bowers, 39, had been suspended by the supposedly family friendly Golden Baseball League for the remainder of the season and fined $5,000 as a result of the altercation. But this came almost a week after a lame, two-game suspension so outraged Raaphorst's umpiring colleagues that they refused to work other GBL games.

    Raaphorst's official report of Bowers ejection cited Bowers saying: "You know what I heard? I heard you are a (expletive) faggot. The rumour from several managers and people at the league is that you are a fag. The report adds that Bowers hollered: "I ought to kick your ass, you faggot."

    The Capitals announced in a news release that Bowers "had been relieved of his duties." But at a news briefing at Telus Field, Oilers president Patrick LaForge said Bowers had resigned after he was suspended by GBL commissioner Kevin Outcalt at a meeting in San Francisco on Friday morning.

    Somebody needs to whoop his ass!
