What sort of liability insurance do baseball players carry?

Guaranteed contracts should be policy enough

What he did is a bit different, no? I've seen countless ball players being beaned by baseballs. Not many hockey players have punched a guy in the back of the head and drilled him into the ice, half-conscious. :S

hockey players are way tougher.

Theres a difference between beaning a guy in the back and throwing at his head.

So, I don't watch that much baseball. But, when guys get hit in the back with a baseball (by a pitch) isn't it usually because they turn and duck to avoid it hitting somewhere else (like, their head)?

They turn to avoid getting hit in the ribs.Guys get beaned safely all the time.

wait...so knocking a guy unconscious (with a punch in the back of the head) so he falls face first and defenseless onto the ice is WORSE than ALMOST hitting someone with a baseball?

We're talking about baseball here, smart guy.I should have said beaning a guy in the back with a BASEBALL for your benefit.

you had just brought up "Betruzzi" yourself, and you're generally clueless about the entire topic, so I really couldn't be sure of what stupid point you were trying to make.

I was mocking E for saying Bertuzzi never got in trouble with the law for his cheap shot which he did.Theres only two fucking active threads here.Try to keep up.
