Backman was recently hired as <a href="http://www.pressconnects.com/article/20110406/SPORTS/104060347/1118/Simple-goal-Backman-Teach-winning-baseball?odyssey=nav%7Chead">the manager for the AA Binghamton Mets</a>, but a clip from a documentary series about independent minor league baseball called "Playing for Peanuts" just saw internet light for the first time the other day, and we're glad for it. This comes, again, from Backman's stint as manager for the South Georgia Peanuts. Backman <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTqG79iJSII&feature=channel_video_title">told the crew after the game</a> that he "basically motherf&mdash;ked the guy" to earn this ejection, so, yeah, the above clip is probably NSFW.				<a href="http://deadspin.com/5791331/wally-backman-verbally-assaults-an-umpire-part-79" title="Click here to read more about Wally Backman Verbally Assaults An Umpire, Part 79">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>

				You might remember, almost three years ago, when the Arizona Diamondbacks hired former Met Wally Backman to be their manager before firing him when they discovered an old DUI arrest and his impending bankruptcy. It was a tough break, particularly when he had to take a job managing the South Georgia Peanuts of the South Coast League. Apparently, the new job <a href="http://independentmail.com/news/2007/jun/26/backman-has-meltdown/">hasn't given him much inner peace</A>. The man can pull off an in-game tirade.				<a href="http://deadspin.com/273144/how-the-mighty-have-fallen" title="Click here to read more about How The "Mighty" Have Fallen">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>
