Miguel Tejada apologizes for obscene gesture towards fans.

Quote:
BALTIMORE -- Orioles shortstop Miguel Tejada apologized Thursday for making what appeared to be an obscene gesture toward the stands during Wednesday's game in Toronto.

Tejada made a gesture after swinging through a pitch in the dirt from B.J. Ryan and being thrown out at first in the eighth inning. The Orioles lost the game 4-3.

"I want to apologize to everyone, especially to the Orioles fans and the fans in Toronto, for my action in Wednesday's game," Tejada said in a statement posted on the Orioles' Web site. "I was frustrated and should not have let things get to me. I am sorry and hope people will accept that and know that is not the kind of person I am."

Mike Flanagan, Orioles executive vice president for baseball operations, said, "We don't condone what Miguel Tejada did. His actions certainly are out of character with the player and person we know him to be. The situation is being handled internally and neither the Orioles organization nor Miguel will comment further on the matter."
I'm stuck on the fence here. For one, they're people, I can understand that during a bad game they get frustrated and vent through this. I do it when I get pissed off in traffic.

On the other hand, they're stars that kids look up to, and people come to see. They should be gentlemen.

I know what your saying. Kids look up to Sports stars and thats why you cant act a certain way. But it is very easy to forget all about it and do something and act in a certain way that you will regret. It's hard to help. Some people just do it better then others. I don't blame him. I would if he didn't say he was sorry.
