Frank Robinson vs Umpire Jim Wolf - 40+ Second Staredown

[JamesC666]

Jim Wolf is one of my fav umpires

[Coastergeekperson04]

Since when was Frank Robinson manager of "Nashville"? :P He said Nationals.

[evanstoler]

Good thing Jim can't umpire his brother's games.

[Tony63909]

Children will be children!!!!!!!!!!

[circa1970]

Frank blinked first

[redsoxloverjeff]

Frank! We need some of your offense back in Baltimore! Vlad sucks!

[mercapri302]

The song in the background is "Preparati la Bara!" by Gianfranco Reverberi (you might recognize it as the sample from Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy".

[milpoolXXX]

The Wolf family, full of mediocre talent. Pitching. Umpiring.

I wonder how Jim's calf muscle is doing after tripping on a bat, pear-shaped loser.

Frank Robinson was a good Manager but never had a real good team

[MrDiamondcut]

Frank Robinson. My hero! Most prolific resume in baseball history.

Check it out.... It's written in Black AND White!

[thebig1]

@MrDiamondcut I'm sure the umpire got discipled for daring to look at a BLACK MAN for that long right? I mean Frank Robinson was right by the mere fact that HE IS BLACK!!!!

[ptouhey]

@thebig1 calm down there klan's man. the dude was just saying frank succeeded, won an MVP in each league while having to deal with kids like you who busted his balls simply because he was black. he played in a white-dominated profession is all.

[thebig1]

@ptouhey Dude shove it somewhere please. I wasn't talking about his ability as a player or as a manager. Assuming your black I don't expect you to understand this but WHITE PEOPLE if they dare say something or look at a black person the wrong way ITS RACIST. So I'll say it here BLACK PEOPLE NEED TO GET OVER THEMSELVES AND BE MEMBERS OF A NATIONWIDE SOCIETY. In otherwords don't whine and moan about not being excepted if what you really want to do is hangout with other black people!!!!

[ptouhey]

@thebig1 hah, bro i'm white. and the only way something becomes racist is if you make it so. and if you think a black person taking a glance the wrong way means they must think you're racist, well you might have to look in the mirror. disrespect is disrespect, color becomes irrelevant. and 'get over themselves'? i'm sorry, whose the cat on youtube acting like a baseball staredown is racially charged.

[milpoolXXX]

@ptouhey ... Maybe it was racist and they were starting a Zebra Panther Rally.

Maybe the kissed and hugged after the game.

Why even respond to morons who think this is racially-inspired. =)

[sfkjdci]

they are in love!!!

[steviebreech]

PTI made this famous!

[schneideywhitey]

Happy Birthday, Frank!

[ray6737]

true love

[Grazirish]

Did they just have a staring contest

[idiotfinder911]

GO WOLF!

[bailshire]

I am just so happy to see the ticker showing the blues beating the redwings.

fkn redwings. yes I'll take every little victory I can get.

[oldaardvark]

Line!

[flavoroflove5]

wtf is nashville? its the washington nationals

[torontodave]

@flavoroflove5 He said Nationals, you have to be Canadian to here it though :D Poor Rod Smith need to learn to enunciate better

[torontodave]

@torontodave *needs*  Apparently I need to learn how to use spelling and grammar better :(

[FrsBigeasy]

Frank Robinson did a Great Job in his 1st Season with the Nationals. The scored less then 4 Runs a Game yet they won 81 Games & were in Contention for the NL East Title as well as the NL Wild Card the Whole Season.

[TripleJJJay]

I remember when I first saw this when it happened. I almost died laughing. It's been years, glad to see it again!

[Deito25]

even though frank blinked wolf did turned away first . so advantage frank

[aboynamedmass]

wolf is just downright gangsta..period the guy deserves a beer after that

[n40p69]

I love ya Frank but you blinked several times, Wolf wins this staredown.

[wharffratt]

Jim Wolf got owned.

[MYxNAMExISxMATT]

i thought robinson got owned

[wharffratt]

who blinked first? oh thats right that nobody who actually thinks fans come to see umpires, Jim Wolf, did.  pwned.

[MYxNAMExISxMATT]

ok...that why i said robinson got owned..

[wharffratt]

this doesnt show the entire stare down.  Wolf eventually brakes and turns away, while Robinson continues to stare. Robinson won the stare down I can assure you.

[MYxNAMExISxMATT]

ook

[redverter]

@wharffratt Frank is in his place in the dugout. Wolf would have to eventually turn away and get back to his job.

[wharffratt]

@redverter that's not Frank's fault.  just like your typical egoistical ref in professional sports these days, Wolf tried inject himself into the game making it about him. pricks like him should not be seen nor heard.

He's very lucky Frank didn't walk out there and whip his fucking ass, right there at home plate.

[redverter]

@wharffratt Ok....now I understand where you're coming from. You just plain hate refs and umpires.

[herbalthaternation]

Nashville manager Frank Robinson?

[Laker62282]

Does anyone have a link to the full length staredown? I've looked all over the Internet but can't find it. Thanks!!

[bmollet1983]

Frank Robinson blinked at least 6 times.

[Sicplastificate]

From the distance between home and the dugout, it doesn't matter if someone blinked. Frank is so badass that he wins hands down.

[theedgeinshow]

@Sicplastificate no doubt Frank wins.......only one of those guys is in the HALL OF FAME!

[lhamlett]

@Sicplastificate and it is sad that a man 40 years younger than Frank is trying to have a stare down with him....frank is looking in the direction of the action of the game this this guy is looking away from the game to frank...there would not be a mbl if not for people like frank give him some respect..

[oldaardvark]

I remember the game where Frank almost killed Emmett Ashford. Somebody got between them, fortunately.

[1ERICM22]

lol! that was funny

[robdibbles]

so funny. I cant believe they got into that.

[dms78]

washington. not nashville

[ArxVirtus]

Right. at the beginning the guy says "Nationals," not "Nashville."
