<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->Milton Bradley thinks the Chicago media is hard on him, and says he prefers to read a "legit" news source like USA Today.
But no one has been tougher on Bradley this season than Cubs TV anyalyst Bob Brenly, who criticized the right-fielder for not running after slipping out of the batters box on Wednesday.
Now check out what Brenly said to WSCR-AM 670 about Bradley during an interview on the Cubs-Sox game on Thursday morning.:
“The bottom line is, just get the job done. He can point fingers and assign blame wherever he wants and laugh in the face of critics that he can swing the bat from the left side and he can stay healthy, but do it all year long, don’t just do it for a month of the season and proclaim yourself the guy we were looking for. I think Milton Bradley is a much better offensive player then we’ve seen this year, I just think he’s allowed too many distractions to get between his ears, I think he incorrectly blames everybody else for making him the lightning rod. Well if you don’t want to be the lightning rod, then don’t stand on the roof in a thunderstorm with a 1 iron in your hand …. Don’t call it upon yourself, and I think with some of his comments, he’s done that.”<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

This is not some silly theory that's unsupported and deserves being mocked by photos of Xena.
