most hated owners in MLB history

All of the criticism of Hicks makes me wonder where he ranks among owners who were hated by the fans of their team or as we look back deserve the most contempt for being avaricious and miserly megalomaniacs.  

Charlie O Finley must be up there.

Comiskey for the White Sox deserves mention.  

Maybe we can get some nominees and make a poll.

marge schott
not all that much for the baseball moves, more for that whole bigot/racist aspects of her tenure.

Angelos
has to at least be in the conversation for ruining what was widely regarded as one of the best farm systems in the majors and not having any kind of consistent fiscal or baseball plan.

Don't know his name
but the previous owner of the Expos and the current owner of the Marlins. What a jerk that guy is, firing the manager of the year in a pissing contest.

It has to be Hicks
Afterall, he single handedly killed baseball when he signed ARod.
