Scotty gives alcohol a bad name. This is scottys problem not the alcohol.Most ppl can drink a skinful and still behave, but u have to know urself and what u are about.I am surprised the kiddo didn't pop him one he thoroughly deserved. "Love for the game not the ppl"

Posted by Hajinnho: "I want to show people i can stay sober and still win" looool, thats sounds like alcohol won his tournaments... i thought it would harm and not help^^

So better not bluffing a player which is drinking while playing...
