Favorite manager tirades?

Figured this would be a funny topic and maybe some will be able to find video on youtube of their top pick.

I'm watching Dodgers vs. Giants right now and out of nowhere Larry Bowa starts a yelling match with the 3rd base ump. Supposedly the ump told Bowa to get in the coaches box and Bowa declined. They started screaming back and forth. Nothing too uncommon but the best part was when Joe Torre came out of the dugout and tried to hold Bowa back. Bowa was having no parts of that so Bob Schafer, one of the coaches, came running out trying to hold Bowa back as well. Bowa was really fired up and looked like he could've swung at the ump at any moment. Nothin like a 63 year old man picking fights over standing in a box!

While showing the replay, Vin Scully gave a classic line of "That vain in Bowa's neck could've held up a screen in the (LA) Coliseum".
