Todd Hundley is easily my least favorite Cub ever.

Macias takes my top spot, but yeah - Hundley was godawful.

I'll vote for Mel Rojas...this is fun.

 

LaTroy Hawkins

Hundley was funny-bad though.

 

The way he openly hated the fans puts it over the top for me. Of course, LaTroy could barely contain his hatred.....of basically everything.

How is it that Neifury hasn't been mentioned yet? :scratch:

 

because we blame Dusty more for overusing him than for Neifi sucking. plus, no one has problems with Neifi's personality the way we do with Hundley/LaTroy/etc.

Man, forget Bonds/Kent rivalry, Chicago has had alot of one on one rivalries that would team rivalries jealous. I mean come on....we've had the Jordan .v. Pippen. We've had Sandberg .v. Palmerio. We've had Grace .v. Sosa (the precursor to Kent/Bonds). I'm pretty sure, there was others, but those three rivalries were the biggest in Chicago sports.

 

With that said...the double standard in the media is mindboggling. Hate on Sosa, but not Grace. Hate on Pippen for leaving a game with 1.2 seconds left, but don't hate Jordan for quitting for 3 yrs (the excuse he use was valid, but I believe he used it as an excuse to try that baseball thing).

 

With that said, IDK if there was one player I distasted enough to garner hatred that playe for the Cubs, but there are certainly ones I wish never played for the Cubs. Guys like Blauser, Morandini, etc, etc.

 

But on the flip side there are those, that made great Cubs....Stairs, Karros, Beck, Mulholland, Wendall (the pitcher, not Wavin') even tho they were near the end of the careers, or not very good.

Because he saved the Cubs.

That will never get old. I chuckle every time I read it.

 

Someone already took my pic for least favorite, so my least favorite that I don't think has been mentioned is...Augie Ojeda

Mickey Morandini...still the ugliest man in baseball. Somehow.

My top 3 most hated Cubs in my lifetime:

 

1. Todd Hundley

2. LaTroy Hawkins

3. Dave Kingman

 

followed closely by: Felix Heredia/Matt Karchner

 

Dave Kingman is my most hated of all time. I remember when I was a kid, one of the first Cubs games I ever went to, it was Dave Kingman day, I think Kingman was hurt but he didn't even show up for his own day. What a jerk!!!!
