    Girl vs. Softball Jerk
    Case Type:
    Ethics
    Status:
    Verdict Reached
    Terms:
    nine judges
  2. Plaintiff:
    hotdogger9
    Plaintiff's Argument:
    My buddy, who shall remain nameless, was playing company softball yesterday and cranked a line drive straight into the pitcher’s hand. Now, the pitcher was a girl. She shrieked. Rather than stop and find out if she was OK, he ran to first.

    Lame, right? Oh, her hand was broken.
  3. Defendant:
    Golden Glove
    Defendant's Argument:
    Broken????? She was fine. She iced it. Obviously I’m not into hitting girls, but it’s not like she fell down or anything. There was no reason I couldn’t run to first and THEN check on her. You know?

    Plus she was fine. And about 14 people were checking on her already. Plus it's a sport and girls who play sports want to be treated like guys who play sports and if you hit a ball back at a dude, you're not going to stop and ask if he wants a hug to make his owie better.

    Let's play ball, right?
