Mark Grace was absolutely one of my top five favorite players of all time. Probably number three. Cal Ripken, Jim Rice, Mark Grace, Will Clark, and Ken Griffey, Jr / Nolan Ryan. Maybe I have a top six. I really think I was Mark Grace TWICE for Halloween. The dude lead all of MLB in hits in the 90s. So, I'm sure that if this had happened when I was like 11, I would have been crushed, but now, not so much. I mean, check out the details:
Cops saw him make a wide right turn, then weave in his lane. When they pulled him over, Grace admitted to "having a few drinks." He also didn't have a wallet or his license.
So, the cops gave him a field sobriety test and they asked him out he thought he did..."Not well enough." was his response, so they booked him on suspicion of DUI.
OK, so again, I don't condone drunk driving, obviously, but it has gotten to the point where I kind of say to myself, "well, he wasn't a jerk about it, so I'll give him a pass." He's not even mad in his mugshot; it looks like his ID photo for an IT firm he works for.
So long as I never find out Cal Ripken took steroids or ruphied college chicks, I think I should be OK.
