Agreed.

I asked several employees at the Hall and they all mentioned Willie and Reggie

Canton not Cooperstown, but at a National in Arlington decades ago I saw Franco Harris be a total jerk to everyone young and old. Could have been a bad day or perhaps that is the reason he ran out of bounds on most plays?

Willie Mays

[oldjudge]

I met Franco Harris years ago and he was fine. If you want to add football I would heartily endorse Lynn Swann for the list.

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.
