We had to stop cussing." "In all my years of play, I never saw an ump deliberately make an unfair decision. They really called them as they saw 'em." "I don't want my picture in any cigarettes, but I also don't want you to lose the ten dollars, so I'm enclosing my check for that sum." "I never have been sick. I don't even know what it means to be sick. I hear other players say they have a cold. I just don't know what it would feel like to have a cold - I never had one."- Honus Wagner Visit the The
