" And the team to swing my driveway of senator they'll base -- toward --"

" I. -- just got this crestfallen look on his face like that crystal crest -- what the hell that means but I heard a credit -- books and heard it used yet it's not used to laugh but you don't series description but yeah I say why it was quite a long face -- I don't mind losing the bad. But I was kind of open for some drama -- like the final batters. -- about it we're gonna take terrorism hobbies is that -- Ted Williams on the final day of the 1941 season battery. Mark in lol is and text hello mark."

" Almighty I'm real happy about that base and that's that's a ten dollar get me mark. Psych department Beckett ruled that chick is so particular pressure on --"

" five games away from the halfway point in the season and popping his eight home runs so he you know it's still not great."

" Right it was a victory in just like for a seat ticket now to -- and he does he he doesn't it's eating that's like capital obviously. We don't -- exposures -- you I left every time I -- I'm finally as terrorist but the sports. -- in the late seventies to the mid nineties if so not all so competitive and then not east part of this country and assault these are directly. Just point where it may just bought it like simulate the CI can ask our. I wondered like it top battery company -- hikes tool company they eight. The better well written area out too late to -- country right rhetoric we beat up like I remember. And I it and -- I'm actually very dependent very competitive but there Tokyo Beckett productivity each meeting people. Steroids were being used by a softball like it. Because my original eighty seats and into the -- in September and that's just -- And you to see -- like 89 it'd just -- I redeploy it is India where we using it. I am making a -- like you can go to put. -- its professional footballer steroid but were displayed -- call it what to wait out the rightful stuff like Beckett doubt he'll and I don't so -- all not. Based all what is the most well -- messed -- you don't doubt. Now we -- and 830 look where it's able to be high level debate all week he's become now elect Obama hasn't started since they."

" It's not even about when it was a rounder awaited start to be used for this reason that reason it's about when did it become prevalent and -- I went to become. To the point where enough people using it so at the YouTube he couldn't help but notice the discern the difference in numbers you know going on and by the way. You can still look back at the eighties teams and I defy you to look at the Red Sox 86 team. And say all that guy was on steroids because they're all skinny. Guy that they're not -- they're not huge they're they're just they look by today's standards almost anemic."

" Dual boot chain and I expect eight take a look at it builds from what they were that the -- dykstra. And crack well I don't guys just all such as all."

" Dykstra a small when he was on a Mets in 86 -- little and he is a little leadoff type of guy maybe six or eight home runs and he wasn't. When you're right when he got the Phillies I'm talking late eighties early ninety's it's have a 93 area dykstra was it was a most and still short but all the sudden the power. Dennis started get cloudy and weird and freaky I think what happened was and I correct me if I'm wrong in your opinion this in 88 when went. Jose Canseco was the MVP and gigantic. He was really really. It started I think it starts to kind of go from there -- to the point where in 2001. I just rigid. Luis Gonzales is numbers with 57 home runs mean to me up Rick. -- Barry Bonds at 73 home runs that year."

" My guess is back in the early eighties the -- so primitive people it'll still take it hills estate. And it was deal kind of little people wearing what I think in another -- very extreme. I think it prospective albeit it doesn't scared many people weight has bought back about B -- I would -- let it happen immediately came out I can't think of what it might be political debate that would delete that it would have -- as --"

" Yeah that it finally I did sodomy bodybuilder who started taking steroids in the 7120 Schwarzenegger in the late 71 years science you know will do that's the point where we will we have now is -- he can't detected HGH it's morphed into that. So I I agree -- you that the stuff was around. But as far as a Major League -- by the -- guys hit sixty home runs or 55 home runs in in the eighties you know that it happened to the ninety's mid ninety's when guys are really cranking up the big night."

" Stated it's not all that stuff or Buick from -- I picked out want to technology. Which doubled the -- militia or collapse civil or consult all you really mean collecting like number it was guy like."

" I never cared mark because I was always singles and doubles hitter. Hey thanks for the call is going Anthony in the car next -- Sports Radio WEEI on Tuesday night hello Anthony."

" I like I do it regulation government and popular keystone."

" Rather I yet I am ready yet to be -- could the could be extra innings you know one for seven records to lose that money."

" Yes no question that Google and yes I'm. Let's talk about David Ortiz on that list that you're thinking about all the players who had inflated number that have declined so that I think David Ortiz who got there and top the list."

" Brother and you'll be inferring that may be started doing or during a steroids and 03."

" 03 corrected him and you talk about a player what an everyday player coming over. Start -- then that breaking the record for the botnets are most home runs and then I mean you have to start the player I'm better now -- data -- the worst first half the baseball history of baseball."

" That's true that's true -- but by all the you've said. And he certainly would belong on anybody's list as far as suspicious. Suspects."

" The problem I have with this -- I think that you could sit around at a computer straight log out and you know find a couple players that really big numbers in early 2000 and then I had tailed off and control my network. At a couple people have been added with the rumors in the newspapers and."

" Yeah hit it in -- in the course of Major League history when you talk about the guys and and let's just use the 500 home run list as an example. -- you talk about the list of guys that hit 500 home runs in their career. You can go -- and kill -- for example who we all know didn't do steroids use 5 January 210 pounds is solid his back was real wide uses strong little dude swung from the heels. This is a guy who had averaged forty sought home runs a year every year for the whole decade of the sixties. So the receipt consistency to his performance year -- year -- barring injury Hank -- same thing now here's a guy would 755. Career homers Anthony and it never hit more than 44. You know now. It's it's all about what you do -- your route that candidates are prepared player when I'm talking about -- you know Luis Gonzales who goes all the way to the age of 31. 32 way it was the first six -- 32 result the first time we broke the thirty mark. And -- next series at 57 I mean just we need even have a trial for a guy like that."

" Well actually I think you you you know you got a little extra. Well the numbers right there there are -- dialogue talk about it is Ken -- despite my favorite player I've ever watched -- baseball -- and -- they. It would hurt me to find out that he did steroids but -- It was so LP inconsistent like -- sporty armor on a year over year and then in the early 2000 when he went and read these but again and those injuries and I have not been that think that you know maybe he stopped taking the steroids are more prone to injury because you're less able to recover. And and you almost have to mean that's it summit all right about it I would I would cry and then it now."

" Yeah well there's there's also the entire guilt by association thing too we -- which he played now outside -- for example Ken Griffey. Finished. Fourth in the MVP voting in 96 okay why well because he had 49 homers and drove -- forty runs. But don't listen listen to the three clowns who finished at around him okay. -- Griffey finished fourth who finished first one Gonzales. -- who finished second. Alex Rodriguez who finish third Albert Belle who finished -- Mo Vaughn and Raphael Palmeiro Mark McGwire Frank Thomas Brady Anderson for Christ's sake. We're talking about steroid. Everybody also on the list as steroids cursing through their veins like you read about and guess what. Ken Griffey junior if he is you're he's one out of the ten in the top ten for the MVP who was York."

" Like maybe appeared headed by the greatest baseball player and I like that."

" it. I feel bad if he is pure because you again people how body finished fourth in in 98 right 56 home runs. Who finished first Juan Gonzales second Nomar. -- Jeter was third -- fourth Manny was six I mean. It's all the same cast the characters. There are all thirty. -- filthy so hold on your faith in Griffey against his he has not been implicated in now I guess everybody's kind of now that he rod. And Manny you know these guys are now confirmed. It's like okay let's hold -- what we got right."

" My -- at YouTube any losses. Kurtz in Boston hello Kurt. You -- good what's going on."

" I got -- the -- they'll want to get don't want no part but Ken Griffey junior all understand simply. We immediately drew the world that -- looking forward you'll. Why hasn't people have a problem while paying the future of the current -- civil all the -- information that we have a debate. -- His name never came up bill is guilt by association let's it would bring its principal Barry Bonds and what that band network golf cart. He got -- came back we get over the trunk or threaten wiping out being hailed as one greeted bespoke clear all conflict."

" Well maybe you're right and that -- and here's why occurred I think it's it's that. Shroud of doubt that now surrounds everybody now everybody he got a lot of attention and a lot of accolades in the ninety's and he deserved them. He did get heard a lot when he became a Cincinnati red but largely people of love him. Even from afar even Jesus small marketplace for small market teams -- everybody seems to admire him. But what's now people are afraid because you -- sure -- pitcher horse to a wagon -- Almost anybody and people have they all got on the payroll -- is juicy always -- I can't wait to a break spotless record to legitimize Barry Bonds you know. Finally we'll have a guy who's not on steroids -- no that's not true now and so if you go if you commit too deeply you get more hurt by people aren't talking about was."

" the same -- gonna get burned people don't want to get burned because it's happened to many times look when Barry Bonds broke the single season home run record ever was saying well. Thank god we have Alex Rodriguez coming on so he'll break it or right or break Barry Bonds home run mark Hank Aaron and people get burned by that so I think people --"

" If you look at it for example braves want to see how the body. Developed quickly if you look at erratic schedule of people -- they'll look at what do we think yet. Speculation for the -- school -- what Ken Griffey junior had not go into that category --"

" Doesn't it can't you only look at body -- and I gotta I've got I think you're right Kurd in this respect to -- without these other guys all these other incidents happen all the so the bad. -- Ken Griffey junior hasn't beat up his wife -- gotten rested yeah -- on drunk driving. He hasn't been you don't not to tip over I mean this this guy's been a pretty classy citizen Eddie comes from -- by -- was a class act. And it I think there's some -- which is saying that people realize the problem is it's the Fear Factor. Because of it's like oh my god wouldn't we we put all we put tolerates and his Griffey basket and someday we find out oh yeah he didn't do. Like Clemens like everybody else -- pretty shocked first then disappointed after."

" But the end of people would still is stored era. Great individuals such as -- fugitive or get lost within their history -- people are looking like 5060 years Lebanon that going to have to do recognition that they deserve. The number it did put."

" So far so good with him and I hope it continues I really -- has got to be some heroes were -- how about -- pools how do you feel about him. Albert Albert Pujols."

" All right now I mean obviously you. People right now that we know of reachable by ambush out toward dopey kind outlook palpable -- that I would -- we're actually."

" Okay yeah I agree that a -- joke -- the same pay injury occurred thanks to call to. -- Griffey's summaries you know again it's like Ortiz in a way you wanted everybody wants -- love Griffey."

" MI you know hot he's been hurt for -- that time you know everybody talks about steroids you know helping me get back faster. --"

" And bunched and -- so you know we're really -- they are really bummed me out for life five found out. The macho man Randy says it's to be shocking and wrestling and never outcry. By the way I saw that movie the wrestler -- and he did with though what's Mickey Rourke yeah edited your job. -- depressing it's a good movie but it's depressing yet. Did you see nine and a half weeks of -- were. Yes that's -- he looks like a different person now I don't how weird it's he looks like he ate the old -- yes. And Kim basic by the way he Mickey Rourke admitted that he did take steroids for the rule fitting then we'll see that's OPEC -- he admitted it right up front and nobody cares he's not breaking any of babe Ruth's records. --"

" Through your accountants. When did they shot where they -- Atlanta senate failed Jones can't and it. It's on the ground for the wall aliens guards there is no -- game winning home. He storage season they've been thrown out by the shortstop with the run double to fly out. And where exactly."

" Sox up four and if something big happens we'll tell you and -- the -- progress today you know for a moment or two way that we do these live look into the there are some out there that you know to be honest with you you know would rather have the -- an outsized activity in this for the whole game we appreciate those -- you -- on the show every night you know you expert analysis -- that's what it is John and yours as well. And in once a while. -- president Joey and other hand -- rarely does. I by the way -- yet think."

" It was a smart moved put Pedroia back in its second spot that's where he he's he's much more comfortable yet and we've seen it the last few where you know what happens if you get anybody who's even reasonably quick at a moment and talk a little gorgeous I want to -- reback in the leadoff spot Ellsbury -- off -- vision. Ellsbury gets done. Okay so he's so fast. What are you going to see when -- Pedroia fastball maybe -- the breaking balls and stuff with Pretoria on for a with -- Ellsbury efforts to see a lot of fastballs. And guess what Pedroia kills all fastballs especially because -- common it's like watch out. So I think given the two hole and Ellsbury leave off and ultimately got Albert hit to the -- Leo guy's been ended well down at the bottom of the order. Have a Lugo and Pedroia each with stolen bases that can't tonight already got that catcher weed eaters who's a big time prospect. Look at his stats has torn through wouldn't guys brag on it and it's it's horrendous."

" He's a rag arm a before you type of phone calls here a couple things I'd like to check out personal view and see the -- you see the intro to the -- you wars the other night. It's an animated during a WBAI dot com get on their home page and click at the bottom -- the whiny stuff you gotta see it it's it's as it's hysterical. He died I think rate fell asleep. John and John -- higher featured in the beginning it's funny it's just really really well done and as as is are the videos from the when he words themselves always year's greatest. A party check -- out at WEI dot com. The other thing I want to mention is if you can go to -- yeah Adams dot com and find the video on a video pages the last one on their of the road trip Scott and I took to Detroit. And Cleveland and Toronto. That's -- to."

" Okay and the other thing is I went over the thousand -- marquee -- A thousand friends. I here's a problem -- at the front page of my FaceBook. It says I have a 1006. Or whatever 1007. Connections says that when you look at the left hand side of my home page it says 970. -- is that because some of the pages there are -- pages or whatever yeah. It's exactly like -- to you I still need thirty more friends I know must -- my lights at you -- me and my brother was when you first for an. It's great to have differences that. The earliest even if you don't really know Matt well it's that's a great listen it's it's a really good connection to things students. Thousand people go to one. FaceBook dot com slash. Planet Mike. And you live ever bought it -- It. It's just say so in -- and -- Brooke."

" Klein hello there was drawn on what -- don't like him. Work it actually Sox reported up that you should be happy about that it's not that not that so what's. Ironic -- man it's so here about this steroid abuse thing is really tragic -- Liza. Because everyone knows that if he -- he wrote Saddam's. To take steroids and get back -- everyone would do it. --"

" Let -- say let's say you're right that everybody in that same situation would do it does that mean that. The that the Major League players a baseball -- Major League what's -- called players association. Shouldn't have it. Legislated out of the mix -- they get the blood testing but he isn't it that somebody legitimately to be mad at openness."

" Not. And it's just gotten so lot of control basic -- Beijing just allow basic just let it happen."

" Army and that's no good so it's -- lot of different reasons its November Garnett."

" But let's say let's say you're you're well I'd -- You're from. You know middle class lower middle class yet no discernible skills -- then you're gonna actually -- go to college. You know you get into college some you know quote name college because you're good athlete and parse out what do you they give you a shot and turn opt not to abuse -- you can write that. As as they protect you today okay yet no skills you're gonna make zero money. Telecoms unit they're like hey you know you'll make twenty million dollars a year if you just -- cycle every one would do it."

" Well rewarded one steroid cycle was gonna make you 120 million dollar burner now by. You get my. -- yeah I get the concept you're trying to but what about a guy if it is cheating being one thing you know morally and one great the other. How about this about a guy is a as a stockbroker young stockbroker with virtually no skills. He gets an and he finds out away they can make a lot of money in the stock market putting has to cheat. I loved Bernie Madoff."

" I am but it flaunted doesn't expect and you can swing your -- how -- you want it launch or it doesn't hit in that shell that's when we'll have a problem. I you can smoke what you want to smoking you can -- would you like portable."

" What -- the negative ramifications of that him mark this that you grow up to be a hero. To billions like Barry Bonds or Alex Rodriguez -- Manny Ramirez -- Roger Clemens. And all of a sudden. They find out you did steroids to get where you are. What does that inspire a whole new generation of people use steroids win a you don't know what the long term ramifications are right. -- If you're willing to my -- is so you gonna vote is about there is an idol publicly now more that you would be is a stockbroker who cheats and gets caught I'm not talking made up compartment Joe Joe blow. -- cheat the system in and putting himself at risk. The guys who would do when steroids or putting them their their long term health at risk that thus the the potential for absence from their family do while medical problems that could be totally on proceed and secondly. -- show and all world. -- there are legitimate cheaters but that it's okay to do that or maybe you should for the reasons you -- urgency can have a big --"

" Everyone that's in the -- Power -- position of authority has cheated or step on someone or was. You know it's something that was in. Our Beirut or raise the -- because everybody everybody in the world everybody. I'd say 90%. Of people that are in a position of authority. Okay -- our product but it did that."

" But the -- let's go back and it's just using it in baseball -- percent rate well ever grow idolize people mean. Entertainers I don't but I don't I would -- that there there are those that do. Well I feel I feel sorry for that why. Because there are -- right -- why why why is it wrong I overs -- you say you're you're the ones judging that they shouldn't let's go back in time. Two let's say a player in the in the sixties -- sandy cold facts for example okay. And now he's a Jewish pitcher the greatest Jewish pitcher -- time tell me that every single Jewish kid who. Loves baseball who plays baseball doesn't idolize wannabe sandy -- facts now. If you if you walk the line you do do things right and at that everybody has the right to idolize you and it."

" David don't have the right idolize and I'm just saying that throughout my life I'd never just idolize that while you drive lights. Iraq while it is -- but my father okay and might really cold blooded war hero American that's -- Okay and an."

" And how would you feel about it you suddenly found out day you know god forbid you find out your your father I was doing drugs Zoellick. How would that how would you feel. I'd be disappointed but what. Ego Tony you'd be crushed. It's aspired. To be like in -- what would you would you then think it was BO OK for you to do drugs. I would probably do that okay with them you that you're getting my point about. I understand is they're Portman -- worse than mine that yet these poor people like a lot early herbal do that question. And the Dominican Republic is worth its dirt poured down there and the way out about of that world for a lot of guys baseball. And if they want to excel in baseball you know something is legal the Dominican. It's an easy way it's easy avenue for them. And I understand now put that doesn't make it should be something. That is taken out of baseball through by hook or by crook by 11 means or the other if it's the commission that -- that. Get rid of 90% of baseball you Internet don't watch baseball. When you're gonna have. Budget no -- they watched baseball before the steroid era and they and they -- yeah but now it becomes so custom. Yeah well like that's a saddle our comparable with long that's like you got -- audio lots."

" I don't think that's true. I don't think you get rid of the long ball just bring it back to normal levels mean I would even more steroids it was always guys hit forty home runs but -- just -- and a -- I mean. Pools is it to oblige but this year the home run numbers Daryn I still think who."

" To ruin who -- out that that she adapted stir I think you'll is that. I want to sit cardinals. It turned out to be no -- at least then you went back to moderate and -- he do now Celia. Started to adopt you about suntrust are not steroids although I can totally understand why you don't --"

" Kevin he has and we got a right -- I mean I'm not saying he deftly printed stories but. He was you know pot of two as talented hitters -- great athlete -- when Lewis arena as time -- Tony EC after you in the -- with a pitch reject him -- he thought. He's going to come back pictured below baseball to there was this whole life these were people don't exactly -- to a career. Look at me the president United States decide to be in radio right and and it is a rarity though I mean like his seat -- not to be able to come back is an outfielder some of these guys that blow out their pitching orbits -- re air currents that you know. But he guy driving high horse and buggy and help me raise my -- anytime he wants."

" You mentioned saint call -- like wartime heroes that went you know they were drafted well yeah Bob telling Ted Bob -- Ted -- too classy examples Kevin's in the car next on the planet element. Kevin. -- on parallel to partner is a mystery Andrew hall."

" I don't -- I didn't have the first I want there was -- You know put -- the you know weeks earlier -- one of the guys. Who -- there was Frank Thomas was Todd -- actually -- I don't want it to look about it and I I think that one is a little bit. Unjustified amid a lot and just -- between reasons number one of the obvious reason is the you know the text of the pop pocket on you know and -- was look at that and look at the absolutely ridiculous and in numbers I'd like let me walker sure -- almost but it's not mr."

" Right that -- let's not stop for a second they maybe they were all doing Roy it's due okay Andrew let's not leave them off the list."

" Okay that's what I they are and yet there was like seven different ideas -- and it's sympathetic to the concept of the bad -- yelling like 20/20. 5% for the minute it anywhere else and base spot right now."

" That's like its -- effect of steroids in itself where when you have that kind of you know high altitude you're right about that but. Here's the -- is the case against Todd -- okay. As we know. The 33 year old Luis Gonzales while on steroids had his greatest home run output by almost double. Okay thank you Todd Helton. At 26 in Colorado had 42 homers and 49 you know one. Okay and not listen to the numbers after that performance 30333235177. And nine. Okay now he's 35 okay but shouldn't a guy who's 35. Who hit 49 home runs -- one point Terry's career still be able to hit eighteen or twenty I mean ever ends with the new shadow of the doubt but I don't feel as strongly about Helton is you do I'm not saying -- delta and hasn't had an RBI season over a hundred RBIs since 2003. Okay and he's got to expect contract. But this is a guy who drove almost 300 run up in a two year period of great hitter he was one of the you know. I mean I think he would hit pretty much -- any team. Meaning he was a natural --"

" Well I don't want to -- it probably about helped -- the fact that you know nobody has mentioned you have -- He started experiencing severe back problems which I don't but I but I think until. Are we adding that I'm -- you know -- to the power to but we are 67 years in this career."

" After having back problems and what was that went out on in his power to get into okay."

" So you think Todd comes at a bad back for five years. Yes okay. So he'd that's gonna explain all the RBIs gone all the power gone and everything else to and including the batting average because let's look at here's a guy 372336329358347. This series at 313 -- bad last year to a 64 but he's never come close to those numbers as I think his power numbers definitely helped by the ballpark. With the question every player replaced -- are -- gonna defend Todd Helton and say I don't want him on that list."

" I don't look at and okay there -- And I'd like another name out -- I'm not saying that it is curious -- is going to be."

" And that -- interest in case one's -- is come up in a few years ago I had mr. Tom now that the diet."

" I haven't heard much and but he -- him. Our ability not steroids but it's not but it died as a very big. Strong guy who understood screw up 90% of those cases and debate on power and you know -- cabinet and getting any sort of population is everybody because is. You know generally -- one of baseball's good guys but you don't want which was just I'm not a lot of these voters that could be without taking a look what I like that and now. Don't have any hard evidence but now it's gone I lot of --"

" Sort 500 yeah 500 plus home runs. Out."

" This setup and you know -- other guys they wouldn't do a lot of players that is justified saying well now. They don't even -- 200 laps or run you know install base as well ravaged the pops off their but the fact that I can. It states are going to be built around his home run."

" Well you're right and and that because that's what years as the upper cut swing it but here's a guy with a good -- walks a lot still strikes out -- he takes -- big swing. But has always had a consistent power numbers overs career the probably as he's played in the very balls of the in the era called the steroid era and so and he also played to the Cleveland the dirty that Albert -- Manny Ramirez group there. And I'm not so sure that I would go all out said he never did steroids what I will do is I will grant you this. I say that he's more of a classic. Home run hitter body just a big dude you know big tall strong guy. And and for that reason you can say you know because there's been no massive over development of his body you can say let's put my list of potentials that's."

" Yeah I -- and like I said I mean anyone who is within reason of of do and it certainly but I wouldn't say that just because he played for the Indians. Means he did that mean all these teams were doing it he had a few guys on every -- exactly and the slowest that they have that tidbit it keep people."

" Out today although it's not confirmed it is not official and someone might be absolutely wrong you gotta go through it with very fine toothed -- and say okay Carlos Delgado. -- crying out loud people like that sure they belong analyst likeness. You know."

" Well I mean yeah there's always going to be more practical wobbly at the -- that."

" Right thank you were very good call let's go to Kevin in the car next on the oh by the way is it. Actually wait a minute don't -- I'm sorry Timbaland got it doesn't -- it -- He struck out. I mean he's still fine I know but -- one for two -- but it goes once -- this games extended. Should get a little nervous. We figure out one for five does that give me there -- it put it to none. So you rounded up."

" Just to me if -- do the math again you have patio furniture Dirk is he's not donate -- back there and looks bored and lonely -- right now it's more. Or nothing Red Sox bottom of the third lot by the way smoltz so for a looks very good through the first two innings and struck out two of the three in the in the first Vietnamese and we should do -- and when smoltz he's pitching -- back to Kevin who we cut off here for no reason at all Kevin."

" I guess -- couple comments two caller Google they called -- in the yet it's okay let a ball steroids to peers. It -- what -- the standard. You know that's just ridiculous that's wrestling. Whatever that it's fortunate to -- it you know. -- number one at all -- the pressure being in all black baseball player they're going to break kicked in yet you'd be. Babe Ruth's old record and all that blood pressure at that go to the trouble outlook that was able to concentrate. Have a long career. Don't massive guy at an argument we have the plot people like yet."

" No thank you Aaron Hank Aaron was like 511180. The witnessed the wrists I that I ever seen. His wrists were sold faster that's really what got to be you know. Hank Aaron didn't hit him 450 feet he hit a 3350. He hit a 380 you know and and it wasn't like he was hitting towering drives but he was putting the bat on the ball solidly so consistently with quick wrist. And by the way -- you're right. This guy when he was chase of babe Ruth's record was getting hate mail hey you know and word you're dead in all this stuff in -- this guy was deal with -- series wrapped."

" I did pick -- Up the pressure on -- like he and Nick Price still stay the course keep it all the rate increase to help any and he broke the record you bought it and it was that we can be a guy like that. It would even make sense the family be involved in any disparate stuff."
