This Just In: David Wells to Quit Drinking

David WellsIt was announced today that David Wells has been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes.
In other astounding news, the sun rose today and its cold in Alaska. Who didn’t see this one coming? I hate to poke fun at someone’s medical condition, but come on, this guy downs a 6 pack every night and should probably be the spokesman for Dorito’s instead of whatever poker site he wears the hat for. David Wells has proven that you don’t have to be a real athlete to be a successful pitcher, mostly by treating himself like crap day in and day out. We all know he pitched his perfect game “half drunk” and that seems to be just the start of it. I don’t think he’s ever seen a chicken wing he couldn’t suck dry.

So what does this mean? It means he has to give up drinking and start taking responsibility for what he eats and otherwise consumes. He’s pitching horribly this Spring and his balky knee is still acting up. Now he’s going to have to make a life transformation to cope with this new disease. Let’s just say that George Kottaras deal is looking a little bit sweeter now.

Here’s a tip to all you kids out there: Don’t become a fat waste of space becuase diabetes doesn’t care if you can strike out ARod. The disease is no fun and this should be a lesson - you are what you eat, meaning David Wells is now pretty much a super sized Big Mac meal and a 12 pack of Bud.

Stumble it!
