It would take a LOT for someone to overtake him as my most despised former Cub.

 

Mel Hall is pretty [expletive] creepy too

 

Had to google who he was. I regret that decision!

 

Damn, really?

 

There was a long article on it sometime in the last year or two. It was fascinating and super creepy.

Not sure if that's what you looked at already

 

Wow. I remember hearing something about Hall and an underage girl but never any details. As a parent of a 13 year old that is beyond scary.

I'll fully admit to wanting the Cubs to get Milton. I just figured he'd be the super crazy baseball guy with the wacky name. Knew his numbers were pumped up by playing in Texas and he missed a lot of time, but even discounting that he had been a productive player and his deal wasn't terrible. I didn't know about his domestic violence calls back in 2005 when he was signed, and if I did I would have hated him from the get go.

Yea I don't recall knowing about the domestic abuse at all.

 

What a [expletive] stain of a human being.

I was super pissed at Hendry for tanking Bradley's value with the suspension at the end of the year at making it so clear he wouldn't be coming back. I seem to recall getting into an argument with Fred about it.

 

Had I known then about the domestic violence, I would have been on Fred's side. That article made my blood run cold.
