Tim Lincecum Is A Space Cowboy

Is It The Freak Or Maurice?

I’ll say it, are you surprise that Tim “The Freak” Lincecum smokes weed? Am I guilty of judging a book by its cover in this case, yes, I don’t need pictures Michael Phelps to tell me he is a midnight smoker.

In an update the pot charge has been dropped by the prosecutors in Clark County, Washington, and an agreement has been made in which the pitcher will pay a $250 fine relating to his possession of a marijuana pipe with the drug possession charge being dropped. “The Freak” also must pay a $122 fine for speeding.

A prosecuting attorney for the county, said “The Freak” will not have to go to court as long as he sends in the fine. The prosecutor said Lincecum’s celebrity had nothing to do with this disposition, which is standard for a first-time offender for misdemeanor pot possession who cooperates with police.

“Any Joe Blow would get (this deal),” Hansen said. “The way we see it, we can do something to him or we can do something for him. If we can give him a little leniency the first time, in my opinion, it goes further for being law-compliant in the future than if we kick him in the teeth.”

“The Freak” was cited by the Washington State Patrol for possessing 3.3 grams of marijuana and the pipe, both misdemeanors, during a traffic stop on Interstate 5 going 74 mph where the speed limit is 60.

No one is perfect cause we all have the tendency to make bad judgments in our lives, I’m guilty of doing so, but your decision making needs to be a little clearer when you are the role model to thousands of Little Leaguers out the there.

I’m more surprised that the template apology has yet to be read in front of a podium.
