Just a head’s up…If you have little children around, you may want them to leave the room.
Ultimate Clubhouse Cancer and sickening free-agent bust Milton Braindead told the New York Times that unrealistic expectations and poor communication, but certainly not him, were to blame for his complete lack of execution during his one miserable season in Chicago?
Ex-fucking-scuse me?
“Two years ago, I played, and I was good,” Bradley the NYT. “I go to Chicago, not good. I’ve been good my whole career. So, obviously, it was something with Chicago, not me.”
My jaw just dropped as close to the floor in shock as physically possible.
Is this fucking guy joking? I mean, seriously. He gets motherfucking ejected in his 3rd home at-bat in 2009 and is then suspended for two games while his new team is struggling and he has the sheer cojones to blame the Cubs…or the fans…or the city…or all of the above??
“Just no communication,” Bradley told the paper, referring to his Cubs tenure. “I never hit more than 22 homers in my career, and all of a sudden I get to Chicago and they expect me to hit 30. It doesn’t make sense. History tells you I’m not going to hit that many. Just a lot of things that try to make me a player I’m not.”
As you may know, I follow the Cubs pretty closely, and never, I mean NEVER were there any expectations in terms of numbers placed on Bradley. As a matter of fact, Cubs fans would have been thrilled with a .300 average and 22 measly goddamn homers, if he would have just been an even halfway decent guy.
Instead, he idiotically battled with reporters from the jump, blamed a phantom groin injury for his early season woes, threw a fly ball into the stands with two outs and men on base after initially hot-dogging the play in July, childishly claimed racism from reverential right-field Bleacher Bums, argued with well-wishing teammates on a charter flight, played defense that even Alfonso Soriano found laughable and was eventually banished altogether from the team for the season with a dozen games left.
Yet, he blames Chicago, collectively, for his utter inability to get the job done and act the least bit professionally.
That’s almost as funny as people blaming Barack Obama for this nation’s current financial woes. Preposterous.
If I weren’t such a fine, upstanding person, I would wish that something really, really bad would happen to Milton Bradley. (nytimes)
