Yup. He's probably just thinking of the reefer they found in his room.

Who was the other Cardinal player that died unexpectedly. Was his drug related? I thought maybe I confused him with Chris Farley, but Farley was 5 years earlier (1997).

Josh Hancock died in a drunk driving incident years back

Yikes. Someone should probably get fired for that.

 

That also couldn't have been unintentional. What are the odds?

The only possible way it could be unintentional is if it's a song they commonly play between innings or something, but I don't recall hearing it when I've attended games this year.

The Cubs say they unintentionally played the song 'Smack My Bitch Up' last night when Aroldis Chapman walked off the mound in the ninth inning. The Cubs will have a strong response to it this morning. It was "unfortunate and should not have happened," according to the team.

color me a bit skeptical that that song was actually played

 

I'm skeptical that the title portion was actually played(it'd be very easy to have a ballpark sized portion of that song without any of the 'lyrics'). They're still responsible for the output(even without the lyrics people are gonna recognize the song), but if you've got a playlist of 100 between innings songs set to cycle through or something(especially if they might not be labeled by title), it's a lot easier to see how that ignorance could happen.

No matter what portion is heard, a song with that title should never intentionally be played during a baseball game (other than the intern protest scenario).

Not arguing otherwise, only pointing out how it could happen, especially since 10, even 5 years ago there wouldn't have been the same response to the same clip being played.

I haven't been to Wrigley in a long time but I can't imagine they're that careless. Something as blatant as smack my bitch up can't be on the approved playlist. They would have to intentionally select every song to make sure it's cleared to be played under their performance licenses anyway, so the title can't really sneak by.
