What say you CSFMB, does this guy need a punch in the face or a bullet in the chest?

He was passively and idly standing by when the object struck him.

No?

He was celebrating too?

Well, George Allen's estate never sued because he died from the pneumonia he suffered as a result of a post-win celebratory Gatorade cooler contents dousing.

Kid probably did it on person for being low in the batting order....

I think that coach needs to get his head on a swivel.

A California Little League Baseball coach who suffered a torn Achilles tendon is suing one of his former players for throwing his helmet during a game-ending celebration, according to Sacramento's KCRA-TV (h/t Barstool Sports). The kid is 14 years old.

But that isn't stopping Alan Beck from suing the child and Little League Baseball for $500,000 in pain and suffering in addition to another $100,000 in lost wages and medical bills, per the Placer County (Calif.) Superior Court summons obtained by KCRA-TV.

"At first I thought it was joke," the boy's father, Joe Paris, told his local television news station. "Now, I think it's absurd."

Paris' son allegedly tossed his helmet while scoring the winning run in a game this past spring, and the equipment struck and tore Beck's Achilles tendon.

"He is a good guy who was volunteering his time and now he's in a wheelchair. Who's the victim here?" Beck's attorney, Gene Goldman, told KCRA. "This wasn't part of the game. To have someone throw a helmet in that manner, you just don't do that."

Except the kid's in Little League, and Little Leaguers do that. All the time. Heck, Little League's own YouTube channel shows kids throwing equipment during a celebration.

Recovery from a ruptured Achilles tendon can take six months, according to WebMD.com.

Except, the Paris family has been forced to shell out more than $4,000 in legal fees two months before the case is even scheduled to be seen by a judge, according to the report. Joe Paris told KCRA he doesn't have homeowners insurance, which in some cases can cover the costs of such apparent frivolous litigiousness.

Your problem, not ours, says the plaintiff's camp, basically. "If they owned a home," Goldman told KCRA, "they should have had homeowner's insurance."

So, let this be a message to all you kids out there having fun: Don't.

The only beef I have is with the retarded comparison with home and medical insurance .... I believe most of you will agree that acquiring home insurance is just a wee bit different from and less stringent than acquiring medical insurance.

I agree with this somewhat. But in the grand scheme of things, homeowners insurance is WAY cheaper than medical insurance. It would be an extremely bad idea to not carry it, probably even moreso than not having medical insurance.

What if it was reversed? The coach threw down his clipboard or something and it happened to the kid...

I bet we arent so quick to call it a bullshit lawsuit.

I still think it is shitty to sue the kid though, maybe try to get your hosipital bills paid by the league.

I think if you have a mortgage, then you are required by law to have homeowners insurance.

No insurance may mean they own there house free and clear.

If you're a conservative, this has to be Obama and ObamaCare's fault. If you lean left, then it is the Tea Party's fault.

Kid was just knocking MFers out as he scored the winning run. No need for lawsuits.

Your thread title is somewhat misguided. He is essentially suing the kid's parents. A 14-year-old kid is only going to have lawn mowing money. If you cause someone an injury whether you intend to do it or not you are legally responsible. The only thing that makes this different is that it was a kid who threw the helmet. Would this be different if the kid threw a bat and it damaged an expensive car or the bat broke someone's skull? We operate from a principle in America that minors should get a free pass on legal responsibility. With that premise parents are legally responsible for the actions of their children. The other thing that should mentioned is that lawyers often inflate the amount of dollars they seek in a settlement for the purpose of settling at a lower number.
