Bradley still running his mouth

[imb]

go look up borderline personality disorder.

 

i know a guy that reacts to things just like milton. it's sad.

[ctcf]

Milton reminds me of the angry ginger kid on youtube.

[17 Seconds]

 

You're a ridiculous person.

 

Not sure why you would say that.

 

Bradley is also insinuating that some of the racist hate mail came from the Cubs organization.

 

http://content.usatoday.com/communities/dailypitch/post/2010/03/milton-bradley-rips-cubs-fans-and-piniella--/1

 

Do you make it a practice of believing what crazy people say without anything to back it up? And you say I'm ridiculous?

 

Do you believe that Jacque Jones received racist mail? Or was he crazy too? Do you believe Dusty Baker received racist mail? Or was he crazy too? Or did Cubs fans just stop being racist sometime around Winter of '09?

 

He's saying the racist mail essentially came from Hendry & Co.

 

Can't you see he's psycho?

 

if you read the original article and quotes (and stop falling for garbage writing), you'll see that he didn't really say that at all

This is great...

 

Soriano, a Dominican in his fourth season with the Cubs after signing a $136 million contract, has been booed at games when he’s struggled but otherwise said he hasn’t been confronted by fans.

 

Soriano criticized Bradley several times last season and said Wednesday his ex-teammate should stop talking about the Cubs.

 

“You can’t bring the past back to the present,” Soriano said. “Move on. 2010 is here.”

 

This guy gets booed a BUTTLOAD and it looks like he doesn't let that bother him. Way to go Sori... You did suck last year, but you're alright in my book. At least he can handle the pressure or bitch about it or complain or blame it on other things...

[bcl412]

Bradley definitely seems to have some mental issues and because of this I can't hate him or get mad at him or anything like that. I feel sorry for him and hope he can work out whatever issues he has. I liked him as a Cub and hope he has success in Seattle, I really do.

[Splendid Splinter]

Also... he said that he would hardly ever get out of his home in Chicago...

 

Is this the same place where the landload sued Bradley for NOT paying his rent?

 

 

come on....

yeah now if only the general manager would say things like "move on, 2010 is here" and we could be done with this crap.

[WilcoFan]

You mean like he did, ummm, today, when he began his comments with "this is the last time I or Lou will speak about this. We are moving on."

 

 

Aside from that, do you honestly believe that if Hendry wouldn't have responded, this wouldn't have been a story? Bradley did TWO national interviews over the course of five days trashing his former team. Of course the media's going to run with it.

You think Bradley chased down reporters and said "I GOT SOME STUFF TO SAY TO YOU PEOPLE!!!" Bradley isn't exactly media savvy.

[Sosa21MVP]

This. I'm sick and damn tired of hearing Hendry blab. Of course, he has a vested interest - the more he pisses and moans about Bradley, the less attention gets put on his underachieving, overpaid team.

 

This is stupid.

 

Hendry is bad at his job, but, from what everyone in baseball says, seems to be a decent guy. And pretty much a simpleton. One of his biggest failures is that he bends over backwards to accomodate players who don't deserve it.

 

There's no way he thought about his response as a way to deflect attention from his team. Furthermore, his response didn't deflect attention from his terrible job when you consider that he said "Obviously, it was a one-year situation that I brought him in here to try and help us from the left side. Obviously it was a mistake..."

 

It is more than enough to criticize him for doing a terrible job as Cubs GM. But carrying over your feelings about his job performance to his personality is utterly ridiculous.

 

Whoa Hendry is a nice guy? This changes everything. Stop the presses.

Soriano was playing on one leg much of the season, while Bradley doesn't have much of an excuse except everyone hates him.

You realize that these were organized, planned interviews, right? They weren't post-game corrals-this was set up, probably by his agent in consult with Bradley. So yes, in a certain way, he absolutely chased down reporters. Anyone who does a sit down interviews is, in effect, chasing down reporters because they (or their agent) feel that they have something to say.

 

Furthermore, it doesn't matter how the interview was done because the story was written long before Hendry said a word. The moment Bradley spoke up, it was a story.

 

This is a dumb conversation. If you want to believe that Jim Hendry is the devil incarnate, selfish to the core with a master plan for destroying both the criminally misunderstood Milton Bradley and the Cubs (instead of who he is, which is simply a terrible general manager), go ahead.

After declining to talk to with reporters after the Seattle Mariners' game in Surprise, Ariz., on Wednesday, he decided to address Jim Hendry's reaction to Bradley's interview with ESPN's Colleen Dominquez.

 

On SportsCenter Wednesday night, Bradley was quoted telling Dominguez: "I have nothing bad to say about Jim Hendry. He gave me $30 million. God bless Jim Hendry and his family.''

 

:-)) :-)) Now that is funny. Real classy guy.

Soriano probably doesn't get any racist hate mail because, according to Torii Hunter, Sori isn't really black.

:-))

[BeerHere]

I can see the motivation for Hendry to respond to the allegation that hate mail originated from within the organization. Even hinting that MB thought it came from within requires some level of response from Hendry. I get that. The media is clearly bating MB though and he is too dumb to see it. Thanking Jim Hendry for $30M is a pretty classless move. That is like saying "I may have sucked but at least I convinced him to give me $30M so who's the real idiot here?". Milton Bradley is a racist piece of trash with obvious issues. Eric Wedge knew it. The Dodgers knew it and now the Cubs know it. Perhaps he, Hawkins and Baker did receive hate mail, I certainly wouldn't doubt it with all the nutjobs out there. But how quick they were to use that as the reason for their suckitude.

 

At this point, the entire Cubs organization needs to take the high road and stop commenting. Hendry, Lou, players, everyone should just refuse to respond going forward and let MB run his mouth as much as he wants. He is a ticking timebomb. Now that he has played the race card as the reason he sucked last year he has to know that chip is likely spent. If he sucks this year he's going to have to find a new excuse and the pressure is on him. The spotlight is on him.

"Gave" being the key word, since he most certainly didn't "earn" it. Mr. Hendry is a lot of things, and charitable is certainly one of them.

More like, criticize Jim Hendry for what he is: a bad GM. Don't criticize him for what he is not: a vindictive crazy person.
