Edit: Bill Buckner- He once stepped on Gary Carter's catcher mask on purpose after scoring just so he could pop Carter in his permed mug.

Frank Chance

 

The "Pearless Leader", as he was known, was a BAD dude. Johnny Evers was small, but also not to be trifled with.

 

To put those guys in perspective, there is a story told in "Crazy 08". Outfielder Jimmy Sheckard got into a verbal altercation with infielder Heninie Zimmerman in the clubhouse, and when Zimmerman said the wrong thing, Sheckard jumped at him. Zimmerman picked up the first thing to hand, and throws it...a bottle of ammonia. It smashed against Sheck's forehead and the corrosive fluid poured into his eyes. Fortunately there was a hospital directly across the street back then, which saved his vision, but he still missed thirty-nine games. Zimmerman also ended up in the hospital, thanks to the beating that Chance gives him.

Glenallen Hill is one of the nicest guys in baseball, but I'm pretty sure he could rip your arm off and beat you to death with it if he wanted to.

I still remember that HR he hit. That was far and away the longest i have ever seen out of Wrigley but he got robbed on the distance.

Henry Blanco scares the crap out of me. He's one of those quiet types who looks like he could go on a rampage if someone set him off.

can we go ahead and say Derek Lee because he is impervious to the cub sukiness effect?

 

Seriously, after watching all this crap that the Cubs have gone through this season, I have some serious respect for Derrek Lee. The guy is a class act. Truly one of the great people of the world.

Nick Swisher's dad was a total badass. there was once a brawl by the secondbaseman while the Cubs were on defense. he ran out, hurled players out of the way like they were toothpicks, until he found whoever he wanted and just went to town on him.
