	From what the full story says, the GM got in his face... And starting yelling at Chacon, embarassing him. Here's the link. http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news;_ylt=AoS2lxH79ZIVO0QJD .ajED4RvLYF?slug=ap-astros-chaconsuspended&prov=ap&type=lgns

	Thank you Shawn Chacon, for doing something that Phillies fans wanted to do for years! IF only we got the chance to get our hands on him, he never would've made it to Texas alive. WORST GM EVER!!!

	yeah nothing justifies grabbing someone by the neck and throwing them to the ground but the gm obviously thinks he is pretty tough S**t by getting in Chacons face and embarrassing him infront of the entire team. Dumb dumb move by Chacon but also a classless, gutless move by the gm, have some respect for your fellow human being and maybe you'll get some in return.

	apparently Wade was right in his face and swearing at him and calling him names, looks like Wade got what he deserved. And all you people saying "oh wow he's pathetic for attacking a 56 year old man" well maybe the 56 year old man should act his age. I really don't think Chacon was trying to act tough, he gave Wade warning and told him to back off and Wade proceeded to call Chacon names.

	first ... Ed Wade was a horrible decision by the Astros as their GM ... Second ... Chacon was never going to pile up good stats anyway. He was mediocre at best coming off his best season. His demotion to the bullpen was necessary ... be a man ... request your trade ... move on. It doesn't matter if Wade got into his face and started yelling...if he really gave a crap about getting out of Houston, now he's branded as a bad seed. Doing what he did just hurt Chacon in the long run and I'll be surprised if he ever pitches again this year.
