I can't do it any better than Kevin Fischer....so here it is:
I’m about to describe two soccer games. My question to you is, which of the following involved two Milwaukee Public School (MPS) teams, and which took place in Franklin?
Soccer game #1: The game was competitive and evenly matched. The final score was 1-0. Players congratulated each other after the game. Fans were sportsmanlike. There were no boo’s, no obscenities, no fights. The entire game was played without incident. No police were on the scene.
Soccer game #2: Players on both teams started fighting. A spectator also joined in the fight. Law enforcement was summoned. A suspect kept hitting a player, ignoring orders from law enforcement to stop, so the suspect had to be restrained with a Taser.Again, the question is:Which game was an MPS contest, and which game was played in Franklin?
Answer:
Soccer game #1 was played tonight between Milwaukee Vincent and Milwaukee Bay View. I was the official timer for the girl’s game, won by Bay View, 1-0. The girls played hard, the game was clean, and the fans were extremely well-behaved.
Soccer game #2 was played in Franklin this past weekend. Here are the details from jsonline.com:Police shock, arrest man at soccer gameA spectator who joined in a fight between soccer players at a tournament in Franklin was shocked with an electric stun gun and arrested.Milwaukee County Sheriff's deputies responded to the fight at the Milwaukee County Sports Complex, 5300 W. Ryan Road, about 4 p.m. Saturday. The fight occurred during a championship soccer tournament, according to sheriff's officials.One suspect in the fracas, a 21-year-old Milwaukee man, began hitting a player several times while ignoring deputies' orders to stop. Sheriff's officials said deputies used a Taser on the man to "prevent further injury and bring the suspect under control."The man was evaluated and medically cleared from a local hospital, as per standard procedure, and taken to Milwaukee County Jail, sheriff's officials said.The man faces charges for resisting/obstructing an officer and disorderly conduct. There were no other arrests or injuries.
Now be honest. Did you answer correctly?

I don't really know alot about the cheese state, other than it's got some killer wilderness. I'm assumming that
Franklin is a suburb, white picket fences, middle class, and all that jazz?
Just goes to show that retards can rear their ugly head, anytime, anyplace.
Of course I'd like to know, just for info, what set this nutjob off.
I recall a ball game my daughter played, it was the championship playoff, the score was tied, the bases was loaded, the count was full, we were the home team, my daughter was at bat, the game was about 30 minutes over the scheduled time. The pitcher wound up, pitched, the ball floated through the air, my daughter having the good eye - let it go, it promptly bounced off the plate, strike three! the ump yelled. Well you can imagine, my jaw hit my knee, and I said "come on ump, was there sand in your eye?"
Well to make a painfully long story short - I was removed from the ball park, with instructions not to return for at least 1 year. Never once did I consider fistacuffs (no matter what I fantasized), I made one simple, obvious comment, and was considered...what? I'm not sure what I was considered. Am I an angry dad? Am I unstable? I don't really know.
But to this day, my daughter knows she was right, the ump was wrong, and dad took up for her. I guess, it wasn't a total loss after all.
