Hello, Fathers Against Drunk Driving, or FADD as we call it thinks it’s an excellent idea to protect yourselves from costly DUI or manslauter charges, and would like to open up our service to California professional sports franchises. We have a service called Provide-A-Ride, we provide a Safe-N-Sober ride home to those who call.
We would like to invite those teams to contract our service for the members of their organization, please visit us at http://www.faddintl.org for contact information. We have headquarters in CA. and FADD Chapters in Missouri and Ohio, and have plans to expand into New York and Canada.
Thank you and Stay Alive, Don’t Drink & Drive, please support our ARRIVE ALIVE campaign.

I’m impressed with how you started a comment on the Mariners and on drunk driving with a slam at the Red Sox.

Thank you so much. It’s a great idea not just for the enabled athlete but for everyday person who could benefit from such a service.

Every organization should provide this service for their players. It is much more effective than just hiring a private investigator to follow your covted free agent around with a telephoto lens and recording devices.

One of the obstacles many people claim to face when they decide to drive home intoxicated is that they don’t want to have to go bacck to the bar the next day to pick up their car. There is a service called “Home James” here in Los Angeles where someone will drive themselves out to your location on a small moped scooter that fits into most trunks or back seats.

They then drive you home — in your own car — and then leave on their own moped. I have their number programmed into my cell phone but have never had to use it (moslty because I am getting too old and not nearly cool enough to be out drinking in Hollywood anymore).
