In light of the new Milton Bradley news, namely his suspension from the Cubs for the rest of the year, here are a few thoughts about that legendarily truculent player using titles of Milton Bradley board games. Why? Because it's Sunday, I'm lazy, and writing too much about Milton Bradley is a poor use of pixels and bad for the soul. Yet the evident end of his career with the Cubs must somehow be marked, so...
- Maybe if Milton Bradley hadn't had such a SORRY year, actually earned his salary, he would be more loved by the fans and media, and perhaps they would have a higher tolerance for his personality quirks. SORRY, but if he's going to act like T.O., he needs to play like T.O.!
- It must be hard going through LIFE with a boulder-sized chip on one's shoulder.
- I don't have a CLUE why the hell Cubs general manager Jim Hendry signed him in the first place.
- Compared to how little most of us poor slobs will make in our lifetimes, working as a ball player is EASY MONEY.
- It BOGGLES the mind to think that someone with such a bad rep would be given so many chances to do good and fail every time.
- I think some time aboard a BATTLESHIP might have straightened this young man out, as time in the military can sometimes build character.
- Back in the 19th century, people with Milton Bradley's obvious mental problems would be given an OPERATION which would involve cutting out part of the brain's frontal lobe -- otherwise known as a lobotomy.
