Bob is a relic from a bygone era. It's sad to see him go down like this.
I won't ever excuse his behavior, but his actions are a lot like most men born in a certain time to working-class backgrounds in the Midwest and Appalachia. They gave a lot to their work, they drank a lot, and they were difficult to be around. To be honest, he reminds me of a slightly meaner (slightly) version of my dad. The main difference is that Huggins was a major public figure. In reality, I feel like he kept his shit together longer and better than most men like him would have.
Also, that little worm Cunningham no doubt baited him in that radio appearance.
