Cool! Since we're completely trashing home run heroes, let's not forget these two tidbits about the Babe, from Allan Wood's book "BABE RUTH and the 1918 Red Sox":
Quote:
Sportswriter Fred Lieb claimed Ruth "couldn't say five words without three of them being vulgar". When anyone casually asked him how things were going, instead of "Pretty good, pretty good," Babe's standard response was, "Pussy good, pussy good".


or, my favorite:
Quote:
Larry Gardner remembered walking in on Ruth and "the guy was lying on the floor being screwed by a prostitute. He was smoking a cigar and eating peanuts, and this woman was working on him."

Next stop, Google: Hank Aaron amphetamines
