How many times is Charlie Brown Roth gonna take a kick at that football?

David Lee Roth was always my favorite Van Halen vocalist, but I always bought the media line that he was the one with the ego, and it was his fault he was kicked out of the band. It's very apparent now that Eddie was the major ego case (not that I'm denying Diamond Dave has a huge ego). I didn't care for Sammy Hagar much as a lead singer, but the circumstances for which he was kicked out of the band seemed unreasonable to me. Then when Michael Anthony was kicked out and replaced by Eddie Van Hardon's nephew, there was denying that it is Eddie who ruined what could have been a truly great band.

That sums it up.
