Somebody needs to tell Mike Green that dipping snuff is a bad habit.

He thinks they’re bacon bits.

Eh, chalk it up to a male bravado thing. A lot of the pilots in my old squadron would dip while they flew, often without a spit bottle.

Other than the obvious cancer and cat shit breath it gives you, I don’t think it would affect their conditioning too much. I wouldn’t be suprised if the coaches dipped either.

A ton of hockey players dip. I know some guys that dip while they play.

One guy just drove his semi as a float. I guess semis are cool.

I may have been the only guy on my HS lacrosse team that didn’t dip. One of my buddies was so addicted to the stuff that [warning: if you just ate, you may not want to finish this sentence] he got to the point where he didn’t even spit any more – just swallowed the juice.

Be thankful that you never picked up the habit b/c it’s an absolute bitch to quit. As far as 52’s concerned, maybe it’ll prevent him from gaining 29 lbs this season!

I was the only one on my hockey team as well. Nasty, nasty stuff.

Yeah I tried the whole “no-spitting” technique once, and I ran into a grocery store bathroom and puked. It’s only for seasoned veterans.

ps. I think Ovie does it too.

dip is banned at NCAA events. The only athlete I know of to be sanctioned during my college years…….a softball player!
