My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!
Hornsby, by most accounts was a bit of a prick too. I chose Tyrus Raymond Cobb. I read the Al Stump book, he was a fairly miserable son-of-a-gun.

Cobb went into the stands and attacked a fan. A fan with no hands.
I'd say that makes him a miserable SOB.
Cobb was a horrible, horrible person. Reading his famed autobiography done near the end of his life was literally a nightmarish look into a diseased, disturbed mind.
Yet, despite this, I voted for Cap Anson. Though he was not souly responsible, he was one of those very responsible for turning baseball into a one dimensional game until 1947.
Where's Peter Edward Rose??? The worst human being ever!
Albert Belle's not an option?
When all is said and done more is said than done.
Instead of just picking one, How about a Worst Human all-star team?
