The Alphabet Definitely Doesn't End With 'TZXYXZ'
The Sporting Blog —
By Chris Mottram
Preface: Yes, I understand that drunk driving isn't a joking matter, nor is Tony LaRussa being arrested for such an offense.
Okay, now that we got that out of the way, this video is freaking great. There is so much entertainment value. From the cops tapping on his window to wake him up, to La Russa absolutely butchering the alphabet and so much in between.
If this is how drunk the Cards' coach gets after two glasses of wine, then he is the cheapest date of all time (you know, in a world where women paid for dates and actually got excited about men getting wasted): ...

Remember when cops found the Cardinals manager drunk in his car? Outstanding tip from a reader. The video is tremendous and painful, all rolled into one. Two glasses of wine make you lose your balance and butcher the alphabet?

TONY LARUSSA'S DUI VIDEO IS FUNNY, SAD
With Leather - Sports news and gossip, panda sex, and the occasional Toonces the driving cat Photoshop —
Tony LaRussa pleaded guilty and took full responsibility the other day for the charges of his DUI arrest eight months ago. And the local Florida police department awesomely released the video of his arrest. It starts out hilariously, as he claims that he was asleep at the wheel because he got up early and had only two glasses of wine. Then it gets kind of depressing after he gets put in the squad car and gets further testing at the police station. True story: Friday, June 15, 2001. The day I graduated from armor school at crappy-ass Fort Knox. I ...

Much as I’d like to presume Cardinals skipper Tony La Russa just needed a little more rest last March, surely he knows better than anyone else exactly how many stray cats and dogs are killed each year by drunk motorists?

THE NICKELODEON: TONY LARUSSA'S DUI VIDEO
Epic Carnival —
Remember back in March when Tony "The Genius" LaRussa blew a .093 in Florida? When he told an officer that it had been a "long day" for him and he was returning home from dinner, during which he had "several glasses of wine?" Where upon his release, LaRussa was given back his personal property, which included four league championship rings? (Why is he wearing/carrying four championship rings anyway?) Well, now we have the video! Relive the good times ... after the jump. ...
Tony LaRussa is a baseball genius...
The Tao of Stieb —
...and don't you forget it. Incidentally, there's really something that is begging to be said about the inextricable link that we have created in our North American sports culture between booze and sports. But we'll keep it to ourselves for fear of offending our pals over at Drunk Jays Fans. (Hat tip to the G&M's incomparable Jeff Blair for the link.)

The LaRussa DUI Video Is Only Kinda Funny
And Your Kids Too —
I'll be honest with you, I don't find this video of Tony LaRussa passed out at the wheel, unable to recite the alphabet or walk a straight line and then getting arrested for DUI nearly as entertaining as the idea of Tony LaRussa doing all those things. It's a whole lot more pathetic than it is comical, and is kind of boring to watch. Plus it's hard to get excited about posting it now, because I first saw mention of it a couple of days ago and thought for sure it was a joke. Otherwise I would have posted it right away and felt pretty good about myself. Now? ... meh. ...
White Rat: Exterminated
Cardinals Diaspora —
Billy Southworth was elected to the Hall of Fame yesterday. Whitey Herzog could have been if one more asshat would have voted for him.
Southworth has been chunked in the clay for over 40 years, but from 42-44, the Feebles won the NL pennant 3 times and the World Series twice. His head stone that reads ‘What the hell is the problem with LaRussa’ makes much more sense today.
The White Rat guided the franchise out of the depressing 70’s (or so the WaterGirl tells me) into the team that that I grew up with in the 80’s. 3 NL pennants and 1 World Series are the hallmarks of Herzog’s tenure. He was also the GM ...

La Russa Still Believes McGwire Never Did Steroids
SPORTSbyBROOKS —
Bryan Burwell of the ST. LOUIS POST DISPATCH chronicles a recent chat he had with Cardinals manager Tony La Russa on the eve of spring training. While down in Florida, Burwell approached the St. Louis skipper about the subject of steroids - and more specifically, the legacy of Mark McGwire . La Russa still firmly believes that the former St. Louis slugger never used any performance-enhancing drugs. Such a stance lead to some interesting dialogue between reporter and manager ...

Exclusive! Excerpt From Tony La Russa Book “Tonyball”
Fantasy Baseball Blog at Razzball.com —
It’s been 5 years since Michael Lewis’s “Moneyball” hit the shelves - making Billy Beane, OBP, and Chad Bradford household names and challenging many of the long-held assumptions about baseball.
But the real game is played on the field and managed by those who wear the uniform. And no one has had an impact on the game itself more than the man who has been coaching for 27 straight seasons: Tony La Russa.
Following are excerpts from ‘Tonyball - Seeing in the Dark’ by Bill Conlin (Philadelphia Daily News, Sports Reports, Baseball Writers Association of American ...

KC Masterpiece Bold 2008 MLB predictions
Rumors and Rants —
Phillips, see if you can get the BBQ sauce people in on this so my corporate whored-out name makes us some cash. I'm also willing to accept a lifetime supply of sauce. Now that we are a week into the MLB season, it is time for me to unveil my official predictions for 2008. Originally I planned on doing this before the season actually started. But then the A's and Red Sox opened in Japan before returning to the U.S. to play more spring training games, which threw me off. I then planned on unveiling my predictions on the traditional opening day (last Monday), but was too hungover to do so. The next day was April Fools ...

As Fancypants pointed out, Dan Shulman had a nice description of Tony LaRussa before tonight’s Cardinals-Mets game started.

Hi gang! Jim “Skip” Essian here, checking in with you just before the pennant race gets any more uninteresting. You see, the Cubs are pulling away from Milwaukee and St. Louis, threatening to make September moot. The Cubs close August with 13 games after going 11-4 in their first 15. Ten of the final 13 are at home (three are in Pittsburgh). The final four games are at home against potential playoff opponent Philadelphia. The other nine games are against the Reds, Nationals and Pirates. If the Cubs can go 5-8 the rest of the month and winless the rest of the way, they’d still finish .500, a feat that ...

Thursday means quickly.... He is a Jedi, and he helps people …. Meanwhile, even as devout football fans, the Whites had been on the road and out of touch with the NFL events. They particularly didn't want to know the Dallas Cowboys' outcome. The TiVo at home was waiting. Bill planned to watch the Cleveland game immediately, with suspense attached. But a couple of miles from the house, while driving on MacArthur Boulevard, the Whites had their own mini-disaster. A tire blew on the Mercury. Bill, luckily, managed to nurse his wounded ride off the street and into the lighted parking lot of a strip ...
La Russa On REO Speedwagon: “What’s Not To Like?”
Can't Stop The Bleeding —
Noted animal rights champion / occassional baseball manager Tony La Russa has organized a benefit show to raise funds for his Animal Rescue Foundation this coming Sunday night in St. Louis. “It’s been a busy off-season for Tony La Russa — what with all these great rock bands on tour. In recent months the Cardinals skipper has caught Velvet Revolver, Dragonforce, Joe Satriani and AC/DC in concert, to name just a few” writes the Riverfront Times’ Chad Garrison (link taken from Baseball Think Factory). Hey, if you’d just lost the services of Aaron Miles and observed ...
DUI video shows Joba failing test, being fooled by viral video
Big League Stew —
Attention all baseball-crime types: The Smoking Gun has posted video and a detailed account of Joba Chamberlain's DUI arrest from last fall. While the release doesn't match Tony La Russa's clip in terms of "Am I really seeing this?" factor, it's definitely worth a curious look if that's your type of thing, mostly because it seems that not even Yankee wunderkinds are immune from being duped from funny online videos produced by Reno 911. From The Smoking Gun: "While seated in the police cruiser's front seat, Chamberlain, 23, was ...
