Earlier this year, former Steelers (now Jets) receiver Santonio Holmes surely did nothing to help
his cause when it comes to the substance abuse policy by using the term “wake n bake“
on his Twitter page. We quickly learned that it has nothing to do with
cinnamon rolls, although the activity possibly could induce a craving
for a trip to the local Cinnabon.
But not everyone learns from
someone else’s error. Bills cornerback Drayton Florence has used the
same term on his Twitter page today: “Wake and bake great day to be great.”
Though
the use of a term commonly associated with smoking marijuana doesn’t
mean that Florence does, has, or will be smoking it, he could have used a
better choice of words, given that not only a positive drug test but
also behavior can land a guy in the substance-abuse program.
So, guys, we suggest that you use something other than “wake and bake” as a top-o-the-mornin’ call to arms.
You know, something like, “Wakey, wakey. Hands off snakey,” or a variation thereof.

“Wake it and shake it. Shag it and wag it.”/Sometimes a Great Notioned
who truly cares what this man has to say to begin his day on twitter.
u guys the thought police now.
wakey wakey eggs & bakey. is this a reference to smoking marijuana?
“You know, something like, “Wakey, wakey. Hands off snakey,” or a variation thereof.”
ahem
Are you going to give credit to the founding source?
I don’t know that he meant “wake n bake” in that context. Santonio Holmes certainly did though.
ROFL … “Wakey, wakey. Hands off snakey.”
Kudos, Florio. Your line was world’s funnier than the prison guard’s. Maybe you should be writing for sitcoms.
*bubbles from bong*
Dude, what did you say?

No, I think that has something to do with PCP.
“Wake and bake” gonna cost you some cake.
I think he is just trying to say that he will be playing tonight because every time he gets on the field he gets burnt
Don’t knock it till ya try it.
Oh no, he might be using pot.
These guys really aren’t all that smart. The NFL already helps them all out by giving them only 1 test a year for illicit drugs (if they aren’t in the substance abuse program).
Just shut up, lay off the stuff before training camp, take your test and light up for ~10 months.
Brains, “give that man a gold star.”
the fact that you’re following “twitter” at all makes you look like a high-school girl.
the fact you attempt then to pass off what you find there as “news” is inexcusable.
I prefer to use it in the simple past: I woke and boke
What a pot smoking jerk.

People have told me good things about this “wake and bake.”
Wow. You can make a story about a stupid twitter post…. or you can talk about this charity work he’s been doing this week…

Ya know… whichever makes better news I guess.
“hands off snakey”- another freudian slip by Florio regarding Roethlisberger?
what is he supposed to be doing??? he’s in buffalo
Given how he played in the last preseason game, he should have tweeted “Wake and toast”.
How about getting a real job, since you really don’t know how to report about sports on a sports blog!!
Are we seriously policing the use of colloquialisms on social media now?

I prefer to say “Wakey wakey, bitch suck my snakey”.

I don’t think it’s polite to speak to your mother like that.
@bonafide …
Oh come on LOL
@YawnFlorio …
Right. And all you hear back is your own echo … or “Nothing else until you pay the tab.”
maybe he meant
“time to make the donuts”
what else could ‘wake and bake’ possibly mean?
heyheyheyhey………………………………………………………………………………………..smoke weed everyday!
My personal mantra back in the day was “rise and shine and hoot a line”
Well around Memorial Day, Gerald McCoy said he was gonna get faded, nobody noticed that. Fact is most NFL players smoke pot at least occasionally
This whole “wake and bake” story was played out when you first reported it and just as unfunny. When are you gonna stop the dreadful stand up routine?? Nobody comes here to read your corny ass whiff on jokes. Lastly, stop using “wake and bake,” you never knew what the term was until you looked it up on urban dictionary. Again Florio, stick to reporting the facts and please, please, please keep the “personality” to yourself.
