Criticize La Russa if you choose, because he has that coming. Though he has led an exemplary professional life in St. Louis, he can’t expect anybody here to give him a pass.

But anybody who consumes alcohol must check themselves on this very important matter.

On a given night of a Cardinals home game, how many fans head home from Busch Stadium with 0.093 blood-alcohol level or worse?

On a given night out, how many of us drink irresponsibly? How many of us have one too many beers, one too many glasses of wine, one too many cocktails?

How many of us, at some point in time, would have failed a field sobriety test?

Also, how many of us have been touched by a drunk driving tragedy? How many of us have lost a friend, a neighbor or family member to this scourge on our society?

This is one of those incidents that gives everybody pause for thought. We expect Tony to learn from it -– and hopefully many of us will do the same.
