Aileen says:
Are you trying to suggest McCue wasn’t intoxicated before 2008? Because I know that’s untrue.
ben says:
hmm good point, I think he might be trying to cover something up… Either that or it’s now his professional title.
The cook says:
He’s just trying to minimize his increasingly egregious behavior since 2008
