Another reason to dislike Milton Bradley

30 mil.....c'mon.


Milton Bradley said after Tuesday's loss he's "never" comfortable playing at Wrigley Field. "It's hard to be comfortable when you don't get a hit and get booed every time," he said. "When I go home and look in the mirror, I like what I see. My family is there I have people I can talk to who are very supportive, in spite of everything and all the adversity and the hatred you face on a daily basis. But I'll be alright. I always have." -- Chicago Tribune

Is that why he's hitting .208 on the road (and .316 at home)?

Jim Hendry needs to be fired, along with Lou Piniella. Getting rid of DeRosa and picking up Bradley and Aaron Miles...colossal mistakes. A few years ago they gave away David Aardsma who now has almost 30 saves in Seattle I believe. Not to mention the deal he gave Soriano and they have that stiff for 4 more years...unreal.

I respect him for bringing Battleship into this world.

Ask Kobe how he feels about opposing crowds taunting him and booing him. He says he thrives on it. What a big pussy Milton Bradley is. He should grow a set of balls and find a way to get comfortable since he is bringing his team down on the road because he can't get comfortable.

What a joke! This is the difference between a pussy and an all star like Kobe.

It's the complete opposite. The home fans are booing him. Kobe would react the same way if fans in LA were booing him.

Oh, I get it now. My mistake.

As a Cub fan, there are many reasons to hate this team. They just got lit up on local sportsradio today and for good reason. The first move I make is firing Pinella. Pretty obvious his quotes the other day was code for "fire me, but you have to pay me" for 2010. He reminds me of the final year of Baker in Chicago. Players are not accountable for anything. More than one time this year Bradley has flipped off the bleacher crowd. He really needs to worry about how many outs there are, and less about what they are saying.

More quotes from the philosopher Bradley from last night:

Milton Bradley on loss to Nats: ‘We got a Rodney King beatdown’

by rotoinfo on <abbr class="published" title="2009-08-26">August 26, 2009</abbr>

The Nationals’ 15-6 pasting of the Cubs on Tuesday night was the type of game that seemed to defy description for Friendly Confiners.
Yes, Chicago has been very bad since occupying first place on July 27 — they've gone 10-16 since that date to fall nine games behind St. Louis — but to allow baseball's worst team to keep shoveling the dirt on the '09 season at Wrigley Field?
There were simply no words.
Well at least I thought there weren’t, but leave it to right fielder Milton Bradley(notes) — who actually went 4-for-4 with a solo home run — to channel one of the most famous whippings of all time while describing the destruction on the North Side.
From ESPN Chicago:
Raise your hand if you ever thought the '09 Nats would ever be compared to the '90s LAPD! I'd say that Bradley's comment was insensitive — King suffered a broken face, a broken leg and countless bruises during that incident — but in an age where a portion of this country sees no problem in comparing the President's healthcare campaign to the Nazis' extermination of millions of human beings, I have no idea where that line is anymore.
Bradley later said he didn't have a "politically correct answer" for a question about how demoralizing a nine-game deficit can be this late in the season, so I guess we'll just cut our losses and be thankful he didn't choose to compare his team to Reginald Denny.
