You know how when there was a kid at school who was mean to you, you’re mom told you not to worry about it, because that kid would never make anything out of himself, and that you were tougher than he was and all sorts of platitudes and cliches? And then that kid went on to high school and became popular because he was good at sports but he was still a jerk and your mom said that someday people would see through him and he wouldn’t be popular anymore? And then that kid went on to become a professional athlete, and even become famous for being a hothead? And then when that kid finally got his comeuppance, everyone came to his defense, because it “wasn’t his fault” that he got hurt, and that the umpire provoked him? Well, that kid was and is Milton Bradley. Jerk<\/a>.[youtube https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Iutmc9zR5x4]\n
