Didn't we do it after the World Series last year? I forgot. None the less, post of the year right there.

It's good, it breaks up the offseason a bit that way. Look for some possible arcade competitions as a way to pass the time as well.

Yeah, yeah it is. Any blood alcohol level more than one drink is bad when you get into a car. If it was up to me, any MLB player who got a DUI would be out for the whole season. They should get the same penalties that regular people get, but they don't.

I still haven't won anything with my posts.  I gotta try harder.
On the other hand, no one will ever beat my Tetris score.

Right. DUI is something that I have no tolerance for. It's stupid, people who do it are stupid, and there's no excuse for it. Cabs are cheap.

No, I agree with you that .134 is WAY too high to be even thinking about or joking around about driving a car.
In the grand scheme of things, .134 isn't too bad though. I assume I get it up there, and possibly higher sometimes while I'm here on campus.

And it leads to AWESOME conversations. One time I had a cabbie tell me and my buddies that he had grown big and strong drinking camel's milk. Then we all compared muscles while he was driving.
Edit: Someone is bound to make a joke about "muscles" so I'll just beat you to it.

Anyway, I completely agree with YOTN's ideas for punishment to ballplayers with DUIs. No excuses. Just because you can hit .300 or throw heat shouldn't excuse you from the law.

If only every cabbie could be the Olympia sports guy...I wonder if he makes any other stops?

Re: Joba DUI - "Well Above Legal Limit"
By the way, I'm loving the ads in the banner, they're timely. In this thread I have a car service, in the Sam Adams thread I have, well, Sam Adams. Does it look for keywords?
