Quote context

[...]

- Go ahead. Make it up.

- Why not? What have we got to lose?

- You ever been married?

- No, but I'm engaged to a girl in Detroit. And a girl in Baltimore, and one in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and two in San Francisco.

- Hold it. When you say engaged, you mean, you give each of them a ring?

- Sure. The minute the team hits town.

- Funny thing about marriage. It's like being in the army. Everybody knocks it, but you'd be surprised how many guys reenlist.

- Where'd you learn that? Don't tell me. Your father was a Pullman porter.

- He was a fighter, light heavyweight. Once went 12 rounds with Billy Conn.

- He was really going places, then he killed a guy in the ring. A blood clot or something. He never fought again after that. Just started hitting the bottle.

- That's a shame.

- He pulled out okay. As a matter of fact, we're in business together. I bought this bowling alley on the east side, and he's running it for me. It's got 12 lanes and a cocktail bar, and it's half paid off.

- All I need is another three good seasons of pro ball.

- Boom Boom, what happened to you yesterday? I watched the game on television.

- I guess I wasn't very sharp, so they benched me. Anybody can have a bad afternoon.
