Athletes do Drugs: Soto smokes the dope.

via http://www.suntimes.com/sports/1639738,geovany-soto-marijuana-positive-test-062509.article

Soto just got tested for marijuana and was positive.  How horrible.  I’ve been asked multiple times if Soto is my new favorite player on the Cubs to which I say cheap shot, mother fuckers.  I don’t think Michael Barrett ever was caught doing drugs, I just thought that man was fly.

I’m sure his PR people advised him to say it was an “isolated incident”, but come on, you get caught one more time and people are going to tisk on you.  And I’m sure Soto isn’t as “embarrassed” of his pot usage as he is of being caught in a league that enforces a no drug policy.

Personally – even though Piniella can’t tell the difference of a  “steroid from a reefer” (is this why Soto isn’t being punished – Lou just doesn’t know dope?) – I’d rather have my Cubbies chiefing on their time off time than shooting up steroids and giving fans false hope of physical strength.  You don’t agree, probably.  You’re probably thinking that marijuana is illegal (period.) whereas ‘roids are at least legal with a prescription.  This is all true, but at least the pot usage isn’t cheating in the game of baseball.

So more power to ya, Soto.  Have some fun – you’re doing great this year and you’re by far the last Cub I’d be trying to discipline considering you can still hit the damn ball:

18 minutes ago @suntimes just reported Geovany Soto bongs one out to give the #Cubs a 5-2 lead in the 7th over the #whitesox. All runs via homer today so far.

Lou – Doesn’t know a “steroid from a reefer”

My new favorite Lou Piniella quote.

Referring to Sosa’s (shocking) steriod use Lou reports that he wouldn’t know a “steroid from a reefer”. (via Rainout Sparks Guille, Piniella Hilarity | by Ryan Corazza | mouthpiecesports.com)

We sure do have a great manager.

Cubs Pez Dispenser.

This was purchased for me today, I think it’s cool:

No Beer Vendors At Wrigley?

Quick gripe because I’m hearing from my readership that I’m not posting enough this week and what I have posted has leaned toward female readership.

Cubs v Padres 5/13/09

Lots of back and forth whether yesterday’s Cubs game against the Padres was going to be canceled or postponed due to rain. The common reasoning amongst Bleed Cubbie Blue readers was as long as it wasn’t thunder storming, the game is going to happen as scheduled because the revenue for Wrigley and the Cubs is so high when they cancel a game.  That and we don’t play the Padres again at home this season.

There wound up being only a 35 minute delay in start time.  The beer lines were for shit because there’s nothing else to do in Wrigley during a delay but drink.  At least, this is what we THOUGHT was the cause of the lines.  About 3 innings into the game (and multiple trips by me and my three companions to the stationary beer vendors) we started to ask ourselves – Where are all the beer vendors?

Upon further investigation – there were no beer vendors walking the stands last night in Wrigley.  What the fuck, Claude?    Oh well for this game being a form of revenue for the team.  Upon talking to the ONLY vendor that came around our section throughout the night, the cotton candy man, we learned:  The beer vendors were sent home earlier in the evening because the game was supposed to be canceled.  The cotton candy vendor’s were optional so they were gonna be around all night.

The great thing about being forced into beer lines is you have a lot more interaction with other Cubs fans, so you get to see shit like this:

MLB All Star Vote – Do It.

2009 MLB All Star Logo

The 2009 MLB All Star Online Ballot is up and it’s time to vote!

Cubbies up for All Star Spots:

D Lee (First)
M Fontenot (Second)
R Theriot (SS)
A Ramirez (Third)
G Soto (Catcher)
M Bradley (Outfield)
A Soriano (Outfield)
Fukudome (Outfield)

I encourage everyone to go to the 2009 Online Ballot and vote for these guys 25 times (the maximum alloted votes per person).

If you can’t give each of these Cubbies your 25 votes (you suck and that’s just a general  bummer for you), here are my personal recommendations of which of our Cubbies needs to be on this year’s All Star Team:

Derrek Lee – If you don’t already read The Realistic Fan, you should.  This kid absolutely hates DLee:

Derrek Lee was back in the line-up today and as usual he was disappointing going 0-3. He did manage to hit 2 balls deep into the outfield and one even reached the warning track. Wooopee!!! Its about time that people realize that this is all he is capable of doing. Lee’s power has been consistently declining for the past two seasons. He is washed up. Piniella had Lee batting cleanup today, we lost, I’m pretty sure every time Lee bats cleanup we lose! The guy can not drive in runs anymore. If his neck is really bothering him, then don’t play him.

I wouldn’t mind spending my All Star week watching games and reading posts like this from our realistic Chicago fan.  Lee could hit a grand slam and The Realistic Fan would find fault.

Ryan Theriot - Allows for excellent chant: THERRRIOT CHERRIO!  THE-RIOT!  What fun!

Alfonso Soriano - The dude always gives a “performance” in the outfield.  Why not name him an All-Star for his daily shit shaking for the bleachers.

Happy Fukudome

FUKUDOME - No one can deny a small smile or smirk when Fuk does well.  It makes him so happy.  He seems so jolly.  Remember his homer this year on his birthday – so much joy was on that man’s face.  He loves the game and the Cubs.  Plus Fukudome securing a spot on the All Star team would insure another summer of  douchebags rolling around Wrigley with those retarded head bands and the “Fuk You, Do Me” Shirts.

These are a few of my favorite things.

Scottie Pippen.

First game of the 2009 season.  Me and the Scottie Pippen beer vendor.
