    I hate him. He got Steve stone fired from WGN for the Cubs because he couldn't handle a Cy Young winner talking smack about his awfulmess as a Cubbie.

    As I recall, didn't he make threatening (or maybe complaining) phone calls up to the booth in the middle of a game there?

    Yes, and he(along with Moises Alou) also tried to have Stone and Chip Carey kicked of the Cubs charter flights.
