Mays was the first name that came to mind. I've heard the same about Cobb and Ted Williams, but not from any personal experience.

The correct answer is no one. Who else tried to hurt fans with a baseball? Destroy teammates property with a bat? Try to run over kids on Halloween? Expose himself to a teenage girl? Mays, Jackson etc. could be rude, but none are in Belle's league.

good distinction
Being a grumpy jerk to some people at a show because of whatever's going on in his life should hardly be the sole criterion for whether an athlete is a true bastard... we've all had our down moments. With most of these guys you hear anecdotes from the other side about how they were nice at least some of the time.
We're talking the REAL bad actors here.... the Hal Chases and OJs of the HOF. (or as Lyle said about Munson - not moody (which implies you're nice some of the time), just plain mean. Who are they? Quote:

If Bonds ever gets in, by many accounts he'll be right up there. Clemens too.

Me: Mr. Robinson, would you please sign this card for me? Frank: (takes a second to stop and look at the card) Oh, you already got the other two to sign that, and just need me now? Me: Yes, sir, if you don't mind. Frank: I'll sign it for you tomorrow. Me: But it's your last day in Boston. Frank: I know! (Laughs and walks away.) Now that is a total jerk move for no reason. I wonder what would've happened if I followed the Orioles to the next city and approached him again the next day.... Last edited by scooter729; 03-11-2019 at 11:42 AM.
