"They're Smoking Weed"

Rangers - Giants World Series started last night. Here's a reporter from Dallas (ed note: boooooooooo) reporting outside PacBell (I won't call it AT&T) and he smells something that is very familiar.



Also from the Dallas-Fort Worth Daily News:

Maybe this explains the Rangers' shoddy play in the field during Game 1: A haze of marijuana coming from the stands.

The New York Post quotes Josh Hamilton as saying he could smell weed last night while playing center field at AT&T Park.

"It was crazy," he told the tabloid. "I was looking at the cops a couple of times during the game."

Hamilton didn't attribute any of the Rangers' four errors to the pot fumes -- but Vlad Guerrero's bumbling, two-error performance in right field does makes one wonder.

Hamilton, whose history of drug and alcohol abuse is well-chronicled, said last night wasn't the first time he saw pot going up in smoke in San Francisco.

On Tuesday, he said, "My wife and I were walking down the street and there was a guy smoking a joint with a cop 50 yards away."
