:28:00
Uh, some pork chops.
:28:02
Pork chops?
:28:03
And some clams.
:28:04
Abe.
:28:05
And chocolate pudding.
:28:06
Abe, how could
you do this?
:28:07
And some french fries.
:28:09
French fries?
You ate french fries?
:28:10
You won't eat
my french fries...
:28:12
but you'll eat the Russian's--
the commie's french fries?
:28:13
I'm gonna get him
some bicarbonate.
:28:15
That's too good for him.
He deserves an enema.
:28:17
Oh, Ceil.
:28:19
Yeah, right.
:28:20
Oh.
:28:21
Hello, sports fans...
:28:23
and welcome to
today's edition...
:28:25
of Bill Kern's
"Favorite Sports Legends."
:28:28
Now, in my family...
:28:29
each person had
his own favorite show.
:28:32
For instance, my uncle Abe
was a great sports fan.
:28:35
And he always listened
to Bill Kern.
:28:37
Today's story
is about a baseball player.
:28:41
His name was Kirby Kyle...
:28:44
a lean southpawfrom Tennessee.
:28:47
He played for
the old St. Louis Cardinals.
:28:50
He threwfast, and he
had a good curve ball.
:28:53
And all the hitters knew it.
:28:55
He was a kid
with a great future...
:28:58
but one day...
:29:00
he went hunting.
:29:01
He loved to hunt...
:29:02
just like his father
and his father's father.
:29:05
Chasing a rabbit, he stumbled,
and his rifle went off.
:29:11
The bullet entered his leg.
:29:13
Two days later,
it was amputated.
:29:17
They said he would
never pitch again.
:29:20
But the next season,
he was back.
:29:22
He had one leg...
:29:24
but he had something
more important.
:29:26
He had heart.
:29:30
The following winter...
:29:31
another accident
cost Kirby Kyle an arm...
:29:34
fortunately not
his pitching arm.
:29:37
He had one leg and one arm...
:29:40
but more than that...
:29:42
he had heart.
:29:45
The next winter...
:29:47
going after duck...
:29:48
his gun misfired.
:29:52
He was blind...
:29:54
but he had instinct as to
where to throw the baseball.
:29:57
Instinct...and heart.
