He's a narcotics detective, I think, but not a fed.

]Why he might be annoying

After a year of feuding with Mets chairman M. Donald Grant over Seaver's salary and how the team was being run, Grant traded Seaver to the Reds for four undistinguished players, a trade that ripped out the hearts of Mets fans (June 15, 1977).


This works for why Grant might be annoying. But Seaver?

Well, usually when something like this happens today the media/fans tend to take the team's side on the situation, so it goes on the "Annoying" side of Seaver's ledger. Call it a product of all too many salery disputes over the last 30 plus years, or at least in the FA period in all sports

Its only when you deal with it case-by-case that you see who truely deserves the blame in these cases
