Can’t keep letting this guy get away with it. For every time he’s caught you know there’s been several times he wasn’t. I hope they throw the book at his ass and the cardinals give him the boot.
Damnit Dan
Time to find a new broadcaster. Only a matter of time before he gets someone killed
Soooo let’s go ahead and ask it. Who we got calling play by play next year cause he surely is done.
All the money you make and you can’t take a Fuckin Uber? Jesus
He’s called his last Cardinals game. He almost got fired after the second. He’s done this time.
Its Brad Thompson season
Man that sucks. Pretty good odds he’s out of the booth for at least next season now. Maybe even jail time. Dude needs to figure that uber shit out before he kills someone.
Hey Dan, I love ya bud, but have you thought about not getting behind the wheel when intoxicated? Probably not.
Awww man… the sauce is the boss unfortunately
One of the best jobs in the world and you just throw it all away…what a shame.
Dan is my man but yeah he needs to go after this.
Not the news I was f5ing for.
What an asshole.
Had a feeling he was back on the sauce this year… was getting a little pudgy.
I wonder if Joe Buck can come back and do cardinal games now that he’s only doing Monday night football. Probably doesn’t want to do the day to day grind but who knows.
Glad no one was injured. He has struggled with his alcohol addiction. He is a fantastic play by play announcer, but it’s time to move on. He’s been one of my favorites.
Pass the baton to Ricky Horton or Mike Claiborne.
Jfc, Dan. Someone needs to teach him how to call a ride before he kills someone
I love Danny Mac as a broadcaster, but this is beyond inexcusable. Hope he gets help and stays sober. But as we say in this game, three strikes and you’re out. Two was more than generous already.
Breaks my heart man. I love listening to Dan, but this is unforgivable, and he needs to be punished just like the rest of us would
God dammit you gotta be kidding me.
Fucking booze man.
It’s obviously got a very tight grip on Danny and recovery is a difficult thing to maintain. Luckily he didn’t injure or kill anyone. Hope he figures something out.
NOOOOOOOOOOOO
Not only has he had 3 DUIs now, but the reports from the first 2 were shockingly bad. I believe in one he had pissed himself. In the second, the cop witnessed him running over traffic signs, he jumped a curb, and then slammed into a parked car. He’s a problem drinker and should not be driving. He’s lucky he hasn’t killed anyone and is not dead himself. Cards have to put him out to pasture.
Looks like he deactivated hit Twitter
This has to cost him his job, right? They’ve given him chances before. Fire him and try to get him to get some damn help before he kills himself and/or someone else
And he should get jail time too. He’s done this too many times.
Fuck
Just another sign that addiction can’t be mitigated with success or money. He had one of the coolest jobs in the world, traveled the country, hung out with sports stars, and he still couldn’t beat addiction.
Losing all of this definitely won’t help, I’m sure, but three times is two more than we would get.
Just sad. Hope he gets the help he needs. Very very sad tonight.
Dude, Dan, I love your broadcasting, you’re really good at your job, but ya gotta get help, man. Seriously. This is not cool. Go get help, get your shit straight, and then we can enjoy what you bring to Cardonals baseball. But go. Get. Help.
That’s really disappointing
Any team should treat something like this seriously.
But the Cardinals should be especially serious about it. With both Josh Hancock and Oscar Taveras having died because they were driving drunk in the past 2 decades, and McLaughlin having multiple offenses… the team response needs to be clear.
Damn, I just saw Ricky Horton and Hrabosky doing Salvation Army belong ringing outside schnucks on Friday. I would’ve congratulated Ricky on the promotion had I known
If I have to listen to Jim Edmond’s all the time because Danny Mac didn’t get a damn Uber…
Other MLB teams out here making multi-hundred million dollar deals in the off season, and this is what we have for hot stove news…
Godammit, Dan.
My goodness.
Can someone please also say that addiction is real? Not condoning actions here, but, it’s obvious addiction is horrifying
Ah shit. Was really hoping he had cleaned up. But he’s gotta be gone next season, this is inexcusable.
Piss!
Come on man! For actual fucks sake.
I am going to miss the Dan and Brad banter. This really sucks
He’s in the GRRAAAAAAAANNNNNNDDDDD SSSSLLLLLLLLAAAAAAMMMMMMMAAAAA
Fuck, this just really really sucks. I hate everything about this.
I just hope he had the decency to text Edmonds to let him know. Jim loves his TEXTS
Looks like he might have been wearing a cardinals hoodie, too. Fuuuuuu
Damn it Dan! I don’t know if he can come back from this 😢. One of one favorite announcers for us.
