Oregon State offensive coordinator Dave Baldwin drinks 16-18 Diet Cokes a day

Oregon State offensive coordinator Dave Baldwin has a vice he's not ashamed of.

It's his staggering addiction to Diet Coke, as outlined here by Gina Mizell of the Oregonian.

From Mizell: "Baldwin will gulp back 16-18 cans of Diet Coke per day, sometimes even awaking in the middle of the night to grab a refreshing swig."

Go back and read that line again if you want, but, yes, it does say 16-18 cans a day. A day. And, if that's not enough, a swig in the middle of the night might be necessary. This isn't something new, either, he's been doing it for the past two decades.

I'm not in the position to offer health tips, but there isn't a doctor in the country who would advocate for anyone to consume 16-18 cans of soda a day. This is a terrible idea.
