Finley insults fans

So much for Scott Schoeneweis and Mo Vaughn - there's a new public enemy #1 for Angels fans (via Rob):
"[The fans] pay their ticket and can do what they want to do, but I don't understand," Finley said. "If I was loafing out there, that would be one thing, but I'm busting my butt. When I walk to the plate and we're up 13-3 (Thursday night) and I hear boos from the fans, they don't know baseball. They can dish out whatever they want, but all I care about is winning."
Well fuck you too, buddy.

UPDATE: Matt Welch has a similar reaction. Though I must disagree with his assessment that "Angel fans certainly have their faults, but they ain't dumb." No, we're plenty dumb - it just so happens that we're right in this case.
