  Al Simmons, at top form in the Roaring Twenties, sparked one of baseball's greatest dynasties, the Philadelphia Athletics, to multiple championships, before becoming just another ballplayer. Why? While his achievements demonstrated greatness, he was not an easy man to like - for those competing against him, or even with him - and he seemed to play to the level of team expectation.
