February 26, 201412 yr Really? Why? Bruce has always been very fan friendly from what I've seen. I've just never been impressed with him.
February 26, 201412 yr Really? Why? Bruce has always been very fan friendly from what I've seen. I have heard that hes not so friendly out in public on his own time.
February 26, 201412 yr Milt Pappas, Jack Baldschun, and Dick Simpson. Who knows why? :rage: Could it be a little thing called the Frank Robinson trade?
February 26, 201412 yr People have such revisionist memories when it comes to Eric Davis and Paul O'Neill, both weren't all that popular in their playing days. Eric was incredibly fragile ("must be Italian") and Paulie would step in the bucket so badly against lefties it made your eyes hurt. Plus, the latter had some famous plays in the field that weren't exactly Gold Glove-esque. Once Paul went to the Yankees and became a star everyone "loved him" and wondered why they ever dealt him. Cracked me up. Agreed. And :lol2: on the bolded.
February 26, 201412 yr You can expound if you like. Mine is Dante Bichette. His numbers weren't actually atrocious. His defense was. Worst I've ever watched in person. Made me unbelievably cranky just watching. Just to help justify your feelings about Dante Bichette I had some dealings with him outside of him playing with the Reds and he might go down as one of the biggest jerks of all time regardless what he is doing.
February 26, 201412 yr People always crush me for this, but it's easily Eric Davis. Went to a game when I was a kid. Riding in the car with my Dad & a couple of family friends. Davis was my favorite player. We're listening to the pre-game & Marty says that Davis will miss the game because of a hangnail. I've hated him ever since. That is pure blasphemy, I can still remember my little league coach yelling at me for trying to copy his stance and swing! He is my favorite Red ever.
February 27, 201412 yr Ray Knight. Can't freakin' stand him. Did that hatred start before he left the Reds, or after?
February 27, 201412 yr I really was not a big fan of Johnny Gomes. I am presently not a big fan of Johnathon Broxton. Willie Greene was pretty bad. I have met Griffey Jr a few times and found him to be a very funny and childish guy. I don't know why he had the rep of being arrogant. I have seen Barry Larkin be very unfriendly in public. But was a good guy when he was at a Reds function. Least Favorite: Jim Bowden. Old leather pants himself.
February 27, 201412 yr Don't know that I could name a least favorite. But as an old Oriole fan, my favorite just might be Milt Pappas.
February 27, 201412 yr Don't know that I could name a least favorite. But as an old Oriole fan, my favorite just might be Milt Pappas. Pappas was a good pitcher and pitched pretty well for the Reds. He just wasn't anywhere close to being worth giving up Frank Robinson.
