I once saw Barrett spit on a baby. True story.

 

Yep, then corey patterson walked up to him and refused to give him an autograph.

 

And then later after that, Moises Alou walked to Barrett and urinated on Barrett's hands.

 

And LaTroy Hawkins just laughed and laughed as he set a bus full of nuns on fire.

 

and then Sammy just left.

Barrett didn't tell Paul Sullivan anything. Paul admitted he was "speculating" when he made that statement yesterday. One person with the Cubs, who has no ax to grind, said that kind of stuff defames Barrett. A person close to Barrett said Michael was very hurt by that accusation. It's too bad crap like this gets started in the first place.

 

Agreed.

 

Thanks for being a voice of reason, Bruce.

Bruce should call in to Murph's show and clear it up with him, because I was listening the other day and he was saying it was justified that the Cubs traded Barrett because he was "leaking to the press that everyone hated Lou, when really it was only Barrett." (that's a paraphrase).

 

Apparently it has gotten around to other media members that Barrett is a bad guy who was backstabbing people. I find that very hard to believe.

I was listening to the Score on my way to the Cell and one of their reporters said that Michael Barrett was the one that told the media about the players only meeting. I think it was the Chicago Tribune Cubs beat writer that said this. He said this on the Mike North Morning Show. He said this was the reason Barrett got traded.

Who gives a... crap? Is there something wrong with a player letting the media know that the team held a meeting? Barrett got traded because he told Paul Sullivan that the Cubs players talked about some stuff? Yeah, okay.

 

sports talk radio is trash.

Is that really Bruce Miles?

If so hey I like your work.

It was really confusing listening to it on the radio. I was with a few friends and they didn't understand it much either.

I know Barrett is a competitive guy but he isn't like that.

I met him a few weeks ago and he was like the friendliest guy I have ever met. He sat down and talked to me for about 15 minutes about how his season was going and things like that. I was a little hurt when I found out he was gone but I guess it is for the best.

 

Can we talk about the important part of this topic (i.e. the brawl in the UD)?

The funny part about that was when I bought the tickets on Thursday I originally had those seats up there. Instead I was on the other side of the stadium. From what I saw there were a lot of punches thrown. Security like walked to the scene.
