I'd be angry too

I think I've figured out why Milton Bradley, the baseball player with a bad attitude and general angry demeanor, is the way he is. His parents named him Milton Bradley. How much crap did he get from people about being named after a board game company?

For reals! That's all I can think of when I hear his name. Just think off all the possibilities for making fun of him!

Kid-Hey, hey Milton! Why are you fidgeting so much? Got Ants in the Pants?

Kid-Hey Milton! (holds up a picture) Who's this?
Milton-Uh I don't know.
Kid-Guess!
M-I don't have a clue!
K-GUESS!
M-You want me to guess who that is?
K-Ahaha! Hey guys! I got him to say it! Guess Who!

Milton's concentrating on something
Kid-Oooh don't mess up!
M-I won't.
K-Don't...don't mess up!
M-Stop it, man. (messes up) Now look what you made me do!
K-Ahahaha! JENGA!!!

After seeing some kids do something bad.
Kid1- You didn't see this Milton.
M-No, I...I didn't.
Kid2-Dang right you didn't.
M-Don't worry guys! I won't say a word!
Kid1-You better not.
Kid2-Yeah. Don't Spill the Beans!
M-....duuuudes!

After a game, giving an interview
Milton- Hand's Down it was my best-
Reporter-(breaks out laughing) Hahaha!
M-Shut the hell up you little punk!
R-(runs for his life)

After game again
Milton-Yeah you know it was a good name. I was able to get a few hits.
Same Reporter-Four hits. Would you say it was easy to connect with the ball tonight.
M-Well yeah. I connected four times-wait you little bastard!
R-(runs away) Hahahahaha! Guys, I did it! Connect Four!
Reporter 2-Your just a Barrel of Monkey's, John. (turns to R3) Did you, did you see what I just did there?
Reporter 3-...barrel of...Ooooh! I get it!

Oh I could go on. I really could. But I won't. This is why parents need to think a name through. Things like the name Milton Bradley could be avoided. Though tough luck for the Parker brothers, they're screwed regardless.
