In Case You Forgot, Albert Belle Is F%&@ing Crazy!

Hey fellas, are you tired of sitting at home all night worried about where your girlfriend/wife is and what she's doing? Well Albert Belle knows what you can do!

You can always place a GPS device on her car, so you can keep track of every movement she makes. The other thing Albert can teach you is to make sure the GPS is secured tightly, and in no danger of falling off, cuz if it does you may be in some trouble.

Albert Belle plead guilty to one count of stalking his ex-girlfriend on Tuesday in Maricopa County Superior Court. His sentencing is scheduled for August 24th, just one day shy of his 40th birthday. Belle faces at least 90 days in prison for his offense.

Belle was originally arrested on May 17th after allegedly making harassing phone calls to his ex-girlfriend, violating a court order that said he couldn't have contact of any kind with her.

Belle's ex found the GPS tracking device after it had fallen off her car in January, and told police after Albert had threatened her numerous times.

Belle had a pretty successful career over 12 seasons for the Cleveland Indians, Chicago White Sox and Baltimore Orioles. He finished his career with a .295 average, 381HR, and 1,239RBI. His best year arguably came in 1998 while on the White Sox. Belle batted .328 with 49HR and 152RBI.
Still, what Belle will be most remembered for is the fact he is nuts.


There was the one incident in which he nearly took Fernando Vina's head off while running the basepaths.



Then, of course, there's the Halloween incident. On October 31, 1995 some kids starting egging his house. Belle's response? He ran them down in his SUV, even hitting one of the kids. Said Belle in an interview from January 1996,

"As soon as [my friend] closes the door, we hear a bombardment of egg shells on my door. So I come outside and chase them. As soon as I caught up with him, I slammed on the breaks and was jumping out of the car and was going to run after him. It was raining and it was kind of mucky back there. The truck kind of skidded , or whatever, and it slid and bumped him. He fell down and as soon as he fell down, he jumped back up and started running. I feel like I was targeted. It's a shame where people target athletes. If they would have done the same thing to my next door neighbor and had my neighbor chased them, they wouldn't have filed a report. I made a decision five years ago to live in a community and be involved in the community, and I never expected people to harass me."
There was also the time while in college at Louisiana State when Albert ran into the stands after a heckler.

There were two separate instances when Albert threw a baseball at and struck people in the stands.

Then there was the time when he went on an abusive verbal tirade directed towards NBC's Hannah Storm before a World Series game.

Of course, if you asked Albert, we were all just misinformed about whom Albert Belle really was.


Remember this quote?

"You didn't write a story about my Hall of Fame induction. You guys never report the good stuff I do."
Albert Belle has never been inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. Oh Albert, you so crazy!!!
