Milton Bradley you are a complete Tool
 

Bradley Tears ACL in arguement.

He tore his ACL in an arguement with an umpire. He is out for the season/post-season/spring training and most likely the start of next year. Padres fans must want to choke him.

So do the Padres make the playoffs now without him? They are 1 game up in the loss column on the Phils and 2 on the Rockies.

I was wondering when someone would post about this. This is such a great development in the Milton Bradley saga. What a career.

You can't disrespect Milton and not expect him to go apesh!t.

But hey! The Pads will win the WS and all will be forgiven.

this is one of the most awesome things that have ever happened. afterward he was acting like it was the ump's fault he got hurt and he was going to sue.

Yeah, anyone that hasn't seen the interview that is in the ESPN link watch it please. Bradley seems like he is lying about everything he is saying, especially at the end.

Can Bud Black be fired for not making the playoffs and tearing Bradley's ACL?

Uh, the ump allegedly used racial slurs, and multiple people have backed him up on this.

EDIT: Not that I think Milton Bradley is some peace keeper.

I don't think this is the case, and I find it hard to believe that an umpire would be that stupid in any case. I live in SD and watching the local sports wrap last night Bradley said the ump called him a POS, which the 1st base coach backed up, adding that he'd never seen a player baited like that by an umpire before. Sounds like there's plenty of blame to go around here.

It's pretty pathetic that with all the anger counseling that Bradley has surely gone through that he still can't handle these situations without losing it, but with his team down 5 runs in the 8th it seemed like a pretty good time to vent if he had to. No one could have anticipated the ACL.

This was something that I thought of when I first saw this, mostly because of the huge explosion that occured. I hadn't heard or read anything that said this, but to be honest I haven't really gone out of my way to read up on it. The first base coach didn't look to happy either, though.

Just Bradley's interview was not the best. I know there are some words that can be said to certain individuals that can be catolysts, and I will never defend someone that uses language to bait a person. With that said, I'm sure everyone knows Bradley could have handled this better, called over the crew chief(or if he was the crew chief, the home plate umpire) or something else that I can't seem to come up with. But, I'm sure it could have been handled better. I'm sure if Bradley could go back he would do something different, this Pads team is gonna miss him.

BTW, I'm seeing the Mike Gundy interview for the first time right now, I wish I made this thread, "which blowup was better" Gundy or Bradley.

The injury is complete freak. But, after the Milledge explosion earlier in the weak there is no doubt in my mind that Bradley will be suspended. A 3 game suspension would have been nearly just as bad with just a week left.
