   Pete that was mean!! Why did you do that to me.

   I heard a story on the news about kids in Appalachia who drink tons of Mountain Dew and have rotting teeth.

   i saw that special on abc.

   btw, doesnt a drink like mountain dew go against the girardi no junk food doctrine?

4. Rishi February 20th, 2009 at 11:33 am

   jennifer – 20/20 is doing the follow up on that tonight – I think Pepsi (who owns mountain dew) is sponsoring a dental van or something to help them out

   Maybe we can use him in the 8th inning

   Rishi – They are, only after negative backlash. Supposedly they made comments about them being poor (something along those lines).

   That’s a lot of dead sperm.

   Part of me wishes it was Moose as the #4 starter for ’09 instead of Andy (and that is no knock against Andy), just so he could have gotten one more shot at winning a ring. That said, though, going out on a 20 win season after the consensus was that he was washed up had to be a great feeling for Mike. I read “Living on the Black” this offseason and gained a greater appreciation for the Moose. Not a great book, but it definitely provides an interesting insight on Mussina and Glavine’s careers.

   hate to see negative publicity as a motivator but at least it’s getting done.

    Mountain Dew= performance enhancer

11. Brian from PA February 20th, 2009 at 11:45 am

    Actually Pete they stopped making Mountain Dew. As you can see on the can, it’s just Mtn Dew now.

12. Matty C February 20th, 2009 at 11:48 am

    What use is a stack of soda

    They need a fridge!!

    You know, we heard what Moose said about Torre’s book. But he hasn’t said a peep about Alex’s situation. Pete, get him on the horn!

    My guess is that he won’t say what he’s really thinking.

14. Brian from PA February 20th, 2009 at 11:49 am

    Matty C- well, as Pete mentioned, it is an extremely frigid 48 degrees in Tampa so the soda may be ok outside.

    Wait a second, you mean drinking a product that is super high in sugar can rot your teeth? Who knew? This is a national story!!!! (end sarcasm)

    It’s a little known fact that “Mountain Dew” is another term for moonshine which is often made in Appalachia.

17. randy l February 20th, 2009 at 11:53 am

    “There are cases of Mountain Dew stacked outside the clubhouse.”

    with the amount of caffeine in mountain dew, all a player has to do is take an old fashioned sudafed tablet ( 100% pseudoephedrine) and there is no need for greenies.

    this is a synergy between caffeine and a lot of other substances. pseudoephedrine is one of them.

    The story was about the fact that, that is all these people drink. Kids are having teeth pulled because they’ve become rotten from drinking so much Mountain Dew.

19. YanksinCA February 20th, 2009 at 11:55 am

    It’s actually manufactured in the Dominican under the name Moli and sold in the US by Pepsi. These kids with the rotten teeth are just young and stupid. Give them a break!

20. randy l February 20th, 2009 at 11:57 am

    selena roberts has four sources who swear that Angel Presinal was the driver of the MTN Dew delivery truck

21. rodg12 February 20th, 2009 at 11:59 am

    I understand that. I just don’t think it should be headline news that drinking all Mountain Dew (or any other high sugar drink) all the time leads to rotting teeth. That seems pretty common sense to me.

22. jennifer February 20th, 2009 at 12:01 pm

    It is common sense to us. But these people feed that garbage to their kids from the time they are 2 years old! They aren’t highly educated folk.

    Mountain Dew in sippy cups.

    Sign me up!

24. rb15 February 20th, 2009 at 12:18 pm

    hey everyone – i remember the abc special. iirc, they drink the mountain dew because the high caffeine content serves as a stimulant, and it makes them feel happier for less money than it would cost to get medicine, etc. that’s in addition to the sugar content that harms the teeth.

25. D'Shawn Latisha February 20th, 2009 at 11:52 pm

    Pete… I got’s a question, how you drink all that Dew? When I’s drink the Dew, my teeth start feelin all gross n whatev. Damn brota, you gots a good deal ova at da jurnal newz. they be payikn for you’s to get phat.
