There were rumors of an artificial leg bit I don’t think that’s the case.

Sorry, probably shouldn’t be talking baseball here, but that was in reference to the the Pirates (sorry-assed sumbitches that they are).

Ah. Missed that you were talking about baseball.

I will not feel sorry for them, though. It's punishment for that damn song.
