Nick Nolte's mugshot was far worse, IMHO.
Anyway, Cardinals broadcaster Dan McLaughlin got a DWI in Chesterfield on Monday and it was reported throughout the St. Louis media on Friday (must not check their blotter on a regular basis).
When you are a public figure, something like this really magnifies.
He's taking a couple of nights off for "personal reasons" and will be back on the air next week.
And apparently, Danny Boy has a long way to go before he will become as beloved as Jack Buck.
Here's a few of the roughly 200 comments on the story on stltoday.com:
He looks like a sausage.
I've got a crisp hundo that says Dan WAS at St. Albans, just a matter of time until someone who was there confirms it. The spin machine is working overtime on this one. How in the world was he NOT in the Pujols tourney? His sunburned drunken mug speaks volumes. This guy was tanked.
Give me the names of two more boring asleep putting
anouncers
than these clowns. He and Al are real YAWNERS. But, NOW Dan
fits right into the Cards community, more substance use.
And stop these stupid comments about weight gain from drinking. How many of you idiots that don't drink are over weight? Sure drinking can add weight but many things contribute to weight gain.
If true, this is surprising from someone who has always seemed sort of holier than thou on air. Maybe all the years around Hrabosky and Shannon have rubbed off. Just saw him on an ad and he has gained a lot of weight. If he was drunk while driving, that's horrendous. What also makes me angry, though, is that he had a night off from broadcasting. He has several young children at home -- seems like he should have been home with his family when he had the chance.
Is this a newspaper or gossip rag? Stop the press, McLaughlin is NOT infallible. It's a good thing the press keeps us so informed on everything. What a rag. If there was ANY other paper that covered St.L Sports I would never check this sight
Is that his mug shot? Cuz dude looks tanked.
He's so drunk in that mug shot he's nearly cross eyed!
Watch as many Cardinal games as he does maybe you go out and get trashed too.
