Re: I thought David Eckstein didn't drink

I don't like that sawed-off runt for some reason. Probably because people think he is actually good due to the scrappiness factor.

Re: I thought David Eckstein didn't drink

I didn't know David Eckstein was old enough to drink.

Re: I thought David Eckstein didn't drink

I imagine David Eckstein would get drunk if you had a Budweiser and breathed near him.

Surely after having tequila, he is hospitalized.

His family has major kideny issues in their history.

http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/04272/386732.stm

Quote:
His two sisters, Susan and Christine, and one of his two brothers, Ken, had to have extensive dialysis and eventually have kidney transplants. Eckstein's mother, Pat, donated one of her kidneys to Susan.

Now, Eckstein's father, Whitey, needs a transplant. Of the seven family members, only David and his brother Rick have been untouched by kidney disease. Genetic factors can contribute to kidney disease, although the Ecksteins present an unusual case.

Re: I thought David Eckstein didn't drink

Speaking of ICU.

Did you know that former skier, Picabo Street (pronounced Pee-ka-boo) is now a nurse working in a hospital? They had to move her from her first job answering the telephone. She would answer it like this: Picabo, ICU.

They got alot of complaints.

Re: I thought David Eckstein didn't drink

I don't have a problem with beer in the clubhouse, however there is no place for hard liquor in professional sports. Nice image for the young kids. You stay classy Eckstein. I guess he lost his spot as the spokesmen for the American Kidney Foundation.
