Milton Bradley was charged with disorderly conduct in Ohio on Thanksgiving after police say he interferred with a traffic stop.
Police Chief Michael Mier said Bradley got out of his car on Interstate-77 in Copley after a woman who had been following him in a separate car was stopped by police. Bradley yelled at the officer, questioning why the woman was being stopped. Police say Bradley then put his hands behind his back and demanded to be arrested. Somehow, it must have seemed like a good idea at the time. If convicted when he appears in court Friday, Bradley faces up to 30 days in jail and a $250 fine. Nov. 29 - 5:23 pm et

Is this guy ever going to learn???
When I first read the title of your post, your last sentence is what immediately popped into my head. Talented ballplayer, needs discipline.
Forget the man crush. I drop what I'm doing to watch Zack Greinke pitch.

Either that or Bradley is a moron.
Maine has a good swing for a pitcher but on anything that moves, he has no chance. And if it's a fastball, it has to be up in the zone. Basically, the pitcher has to hit his bat. - Mike Pelfrey
LOL I still remember the "Popomatic" bubble-dice thing on that game.
I loved a couple of years ago, when Milton Bradley (then with Cleve) got injured, the Indians replaced him in the lineup with a guy named Coco Crisp. Those have to be two of the best names in MLB.
Oh, and this reminds of an earlier thread on Milton. Paging Mr. Madison:

Milton Bradley is just another page in the book (Which also contains Ron Artest and Jose Guillen): Stars who made too much money too young and got a big head because of it. It's so frustrated.
I know the A-Rod contract made people upset, but better $200 million to someone as great as A-Rod than someone like Guillen, who'd do something stupid with it.
