    The whole story is even sicker:

    Officers found a 2004 BMW registered to Spiezio had crashed into a curb and fence. The driver was seen running from the crash site, according to Lt. Rick Handfield.

    Police located a neighbor of Spiezio who told officers that he was assaulted by Spiezio at their condo complex a short distance from the crash site, Handfield said.

    The neighbor said Spiezio had arrived home appearing disheveled and apparently injured. Spiezio vomited in his condo and then allegedly assaulted the neighbor, causing significant injuries, Handfield said.


    You stay classy Scott.

    Cards have cut him. He'll still get his 2.3 million this year and a $100,000 buyout of his $2.5 million 2009 contract.

    He made out better than Kelvin Sampson.

    Well done, Scott. Well done.

    Yes it is.

    He must be very proud.

    Any other sons of big leaguers hitting the bottle? Bret Boone came out this week. Unless alcohol abuse is code for steroid abuse.
     
  10. Does Speizio also qualify for an MLB pension?

    I think it's 10 years, right? He's close. Came up in '97 but had some time in the minors a few years later and got cut by the Mariners in '05.
