Milton Bradley... incident in Seattle
« on: May 05, 2010, 05:08:27 PM »
Didn't take long for Bradley to cause a stir (see article below).  I don't know if I am more pissed as a Cubs fan that Hendry was moronic enough to think Bradley would work out, or more happy that Hendry found a way to dump him and get Silva.

Seattle is clearly another racist city.

Definitely that he was moronic enough to think Bradley would work out.  The guy has a horrible track record.  Throwing money at him wasn't gonna help that.

Here I thought this was going to be a thread about some board game in the Pacific Northwest.

Guys a nut job. when on the Dodgers he got into it in the clubhouse when Kent got on him for not hustling. Of course it was racially motivated according to him. he goes off his rocker in each town hge is in. He is a time bomb. Keep him from Times Square.

News out on Bradley's taking some time off for personal issues, with the support of teammates and Mariners management. 


Here's hoping this is the start of a turn around for the guy.  Sometimes it just really does take a house to fall on somebody, but when it does, it can be tough.  It looks like he's got as good a chance to really use this and move forward as someone can have.

Bradley said all of the problems in Chicago were a result of him not hitting.  Well he's smackin the hell out of the ball in Seattle yet the problems are still there.

Bradley has had a house fall on him in Los Angeles, San Diego, Chicago, and now Seattle.  I see no way he uses this to turn his life around.
