The guy had nicknames like "Hondo", "the Washington Monument" and "the Capital Punisher". Pretty cool, considering he hurt is back on his first swing playing in the Japanese League. What a wuss.
All through that Civil War epic, we thought he was folksy and charming but as soon as he showed up in the baseball thing, we hated his guts. Maybe it was the beard.
