FARK.com: (PDA version) (4751342) They call him "The Freak" because of his odd pitching style and his diminutive frame. They call him "The Doper" because, well, that one hasn't caught on yet

Bad form. "Doper" in baseball parlance means someone taking steroids.

Dope also isn't marijuana.

I'm shocked, SHOCKED to hear that Tim Lincecum is a fan of the hippie lettuce.

That's not what those after-school specials taught me.

See, kids. If you smoke pot, then you will grow up to be a pitcher on a crappy baseball team. Who wants that?

"Steve Stadanko, a Washington State Patrol trooper and spokesman, said that the amount of marijuana Lincecum handed over was 3.3 grams. Stadanko described the amount as the size of a human thumb, enough only for personal use. Stadanko added that Lincecum did not seem impaired behind the wheel."

Tim's not here.

The 2.3 grams were promptly put into the evidence room

Exactly. Over in one.

And it is probably the only way to listen to Barry Zito's music.

According to a report in The Columbian of Clark County, Wash., Lincecum was stopped for speeding on Interstate 5 in the town of Hazel Dell, about four miles north of the Oregon border

Look, Tim, if you want to make a big splash, get pulled over four miles south of the BC border with a Nate Newton load.

Between him...Michael Phelps...Rasheed Wallace...shiat...the list is endless...It is pretty obvious to me that weed a performance enhancing drug when it comes to sports.

See what happens when you hang around the Emporium with the older kids? Damn good thing they stopped him before he made it to the Moon Tower for that beer bust.

I wonder what kind of shiatstorm would brew if Tim came out and said "I smoke weed to relax, and because of it I've won a Cy Young. So yeah, I owe all my success to weed"/

lies! lies! i've been told for over forty years that no one that smokes pot can excel. but...it did make playing third base even cooler (as if it needed help).
