[edit] Charisma

I do think your summary points out how controversial Darryl was, but I think it fails to show how popular a figure he was. He had fans' support as evidenced by his being voted to start the all-star game year after year. He also heard fan's jeers and taunts, especially, "Darrrrryl." He was truly one of baseball's biggest stars in the late 1980s and became an engaging enigma. People either loved him or loved to hate him.

[edit] DAAAAARRRRYL

What brought on the chants of "Daaaarrryl"? I remember hearing them in the early 1990's, but never understood why the fans started doing that.
