I remember when Steve Sax played for the Yankees, and he was going through that spell where he couldn't hit the side of a barn with his throws to first base. Some female writer had the nerve to suggest solutions to his problem, and he replied something like, "If you don't tell me how to play baseball, I won't tell you how to have babies."
"The best kind of pride is that which compels a man to do his best when no one is watching."
