Hey, Jerome, turn on the game.

Sorry, guys, cable's out.

14
00:00:44,856 --> 00:00:47,394
We're only getting
local stations.

15
00:00:47,461 --> 00:00:49,933
Oh, what, so now we got
to talk sports to pass the time?

16
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,772
Or maybe watch <i>Gilmore Girls.</i>

17
00:00:52,839 --> 00:00:55,043
Just as, like, a goof.

18
00:00:55,110 --> 00:00:56,947
You know,
if you want to talk sports,

19
00:00:57,014 --> 00:00:58,651
I've got quite a story to tell.

20
00:00:58,718 --> 00:01:01,422
Oh! Oh! This is the one
where Lorelai's mom makes

21
00:01:01,489 --> 00:01:03,426
her martini with an onion
instead of an olive.

22
00:01:03,493 --> 00:01:05,565
Boy, that's
a passive‐aggressive move.

23
00:01:05,632 --> 00:01:07,736
If you knew her mom,
you'd know that's

24
00:01:07,802 --> 00:01:09,305
a passive‐aggressive move.

25
00:01:09,372 --> 00:01:11,376
It all started
when I was a young boy...

26
00:01:11,442 --> 00:01:13,881
Last chance
on this <i>Gilmore Girls</i> thing.

27
00:01:13,948 --> 00:01:15,952
I was a baseball prodigy.

28
00:01:16,019 --> 00:01:17,856
It was back home
in the Cuban league.

29
00:01:17,922 --> 00:01:22,064
<i>I grew up working in the tobacco</i>
fields outside of Havana.

30
00:01:22,131 --> 00:01:24,836
<i>That's where I learned</i>
to play baseball.

31
00:01:24,903 --> 00:01:28,511
<i>Our mitts were made of cigars,</i>
some of them still going.

32
00:01:28,577 --> 00:01:31,717
All right! Ha!
All right, I caught it!

33
00:01:31,784 --> 00:01:34,623
<i>At night I drove a cab.</i>

34
00:01:34,690 --> 00:01:37,595
<i>We all had to drive</i>
huge cars there.

35
00:01:37,662 --> 00:01:40,367
<i>I was just a regular young man</i>
wearing pants

36
00:01:40,434 --> 00:01:41,970
<i>that went above my belly button.</i>

37
00:01:42,037 --> 00:01:44,241
Pull your pants up.

38
00:01:46,613 --> 00:01:49,018
<i>When I was nine,</i>
my father took me

39
00:01:49,085 --> 00:01:51,456
<i>to my first baseball game.</i>

40
00:01:51,523 --> 00:01:54,796
<i>Fidel Castro was there</i>
to throw out the first pitch.

41
00:01:54,863 --> 00:01:57,535
<i>He was wearing</i>
the same outfit as always.

42
00:01:57,602 --> 00:02:00,407
<i>Later we would find out</i>
he had a fashion disease

43
00:02:00,474 --> 00:02:03,079
<i>known as</i>
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

44
00:02:03,146 --> 00:02:05,317
<i>We would write more jokes</i>
about him,

45
00:02:05,383 --> 00:02:07,989
<i>but our dumb‐dumb writers</i>
only know what he looks like.

46
00:02:08,056 --> 00:02:10,060
Strike!

47
00:02:13,834 --> 00:02:15,772
<i>We all worshipped Che Guevara.</i>

48
00:02:15,838 --> 00:02:18,711
<i>Although none of us really knew</i>
what side he was on.

49
00:02:18,778 --> 00:02:19,813
Thank you?

50
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,384
<i>But we knew he'd make</i>
a great poster

51
00:02:22,451 --> 00:02:24,823
<i>in college dorm rooms someday.</i>

52
00:02:24,890 --> 00:02:28,163
<i>Please rise</i>
for the Cuban National Anthem.

53
00:02:31,970 --> 00:02:35,511
<i>In Cuba,</i>
we hated America so much,

54
00:02:35,578 --> 00:02:37,582
<i>we copied everything they did.</i>

55
00:02:37,649 --> 00:02:40,120
<i>And died trying to get there.</i>

56
00:02:47,267 --> 00:02:49,438
<i>Castro said there were CIA</i>

57
00:02:49,506 --> 00:02:52,512
<i>all over our island,</i>
but I never saw any.

58
00:02:59,926 --> 00:03:02,431
Yeah! Ha‐ha! All right!

59
00:03:02,497 --> 00:03:06,405
<i>But from that day on,</i>
I fell in love with baseball.

60
00:03:06,472 --> 00:03:09,144
<i>I dreamed of one day</i>
playing in the big leagues,

61
00:03:09,211 --> 00:03:12,017
<i>so I signed up for a montage</i>
to get better.

62
00:03:23,908 --> 00:03:26,780
<i>I was at the top of my game.</i>

63
00:03:26,847 --> 00:03:29,819
<i>I didn't even need</i>
the full montage.

64
00:03:31,556 --> 00:03:35,030
<i>I was even recruited to play</i>
on Cuba's national team,

65
00:03:35,096 --> 00:03:36,566
<i>the Gooding Juniors.</i>

66
00:03:36,633 --> 00:03:38,971
<i>Tonight,</i>
the Cuba Gooding Juniors

67
00:03:39,038 --> 00:03:41,610
<i>take on the Haiti Joel Osments!</i>

68
00:03:41,677 --> 00:03:43,881
<i>We tried to play,</i>
but it was difficult

69
00:03:43,948 --> 00:03:47,087
<i>because hurricane season</i>
was February through January.

70
00:03:50,628 --> 00:03:53,232
<i>Every time, a hurricane</i>
would sweep through,

71
00:03:53,299 --> 00:03:55,236
<i>decimating the island,</i>
causing hundreds

00:03:55,303 --> 00:03:56,673

94
00:05:06,345 --> 00:05:07,782
<i>We had a Bay of Hotties,</i>

<i>an away game in Barbados.</i>

105
00:05:33,166 --> 00:05:36,706
Oy, <i>herma</i> we can escape
to the Cayman Islands.

106
00:05:36,773 --> 00:05:40,748
Cayman, my ass.
I'm going to America.

107
00:05:44,388 --> 00:05:46,325
Okay, when we land in America,

108
00:05:46,392 --> 00:05:49,699
we all have to stop
saying "Cooba."

109
00:05:49,766 --> 00:05:53,574
<i>The sea was choppy,</i>
and the sharks were relentless.

110
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,210
‐

111
00:05:55,276 --> 00:05:57,815
- Who is it?
- Uh, not a shark?

112
00:05:57,882 --> 00:06:00,019
- Don't open it!
- No, it's just people.

113
00:06:00,086 --> 00:06:01,690
- Yeah, people.
- And sharks.

114
00:06:01,756 --> 00:06:04,829
Shh! No sharks. Just people.

115
00:06:08,770 --> 00:06:09,973
<i>After a week at sea,</i>

116
00:06:10,039 --> 00:06:13,179
<i>we saw the glittering lights</i>
of Miami.

117
00:06:18,256 --> 00:06:19,993
<i>It was beautiful.</i>

118
00:06:20,059 --> 00:06:22,330
<i>Then we decided</i>
to go to Quahog instead,

119
00:06:22,397 --> 00:06:23,967
<i>which took eight more months.</i>

120
00:06:24,034 --> 00:06:26,338
<i>Eventually,</i>
I signed a large deal

121
00:06:26,405 --> 00:06:28,610
<i>with the Toronto Blue Jays.</i>

122
00:06:28,677 --> 00:06:30,581
<i>But because I was</i>
from a warm‐weather climate,

123
00:06:30,648 --> 00:06:32,852
<i>it didn't work out.</i>

124
00:06:33,987 --> 00:06:36,593
<i>- I still remember</i>
<i>my first major‐league game.</i>
-

125
00:06:36,660 --> 00:06:39,766
<i>It was four hours</i>
and 25 minutes long.

126
00:06:39,832 --> 00:06:41,569
<i>I was like, "What the (bleep)?"</i>

127
00:06:47,180 --> 00:06:50,320
Wow, Cleveland. I had no idea
you played baseball.

128
00:06:50,386 --> 00:06:51,756
Too bad you couldn't
hit a home run

129
00:06:51,823 --> 00:06:52,858
with <i>The Cleveland Show.</i>

130
00:06:52,925 --> 00:06:54,629
Well, it certainly
wasn't a whiff.

131
00:06:54,696 --> 00:06:55,964
More of a foul out.

132
00:06:56,031 --> 00:06:57,902
It was a double.

133
00:06:57,968 --> 00:06:59,338
You know,
you're not the only one

134
00:06:59,404 --> 00:07:01,075
who got a taste of sports glory.

135
00:07:01,141 --> 00:07:02,611
I had a pretty good run, myself.

136
00:07:02,678 --> 00:07:04,247
Scrawny little guy like you,
Quagmire?

137
00:07:04,314 --> 00:07:05,617
What did you play?

138
00:07:05,684 --> 00:07:07,187
I was
a competitive tennis player.

139
00:07:07,253 --> 00:07:09,257
Some might say <i>too</i> competitive.

140
00:07:09,324 --> 00:07:11,261
But I was
the breath of fresh air

141
00:07:11,328 --> 00:07:13,767
that the stuffy tennis world
needed.

142
00:07:13,834 --> 00:07:15,971
<i>I was born</i>
into a real tennis family.

143
00:07:16,038 --> 00:07:19,144
<i>On my first birthday,</i>
my mother gave me a little Head.

144
00:07:20,246 --> 00:07:23,653
<i>I wanted to be the first</i>
male cheerleader for tennis.

145
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,659
day and night!

146
00:07:26,726 --> 00:07:29,866
- Ooh, tennis!
-

147
00:07:31,168 --> 00:07:34,976
<i>And when that was weird,</i>
I decided to just play tennis.

148
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,819
<i>But it was understood I'd</i>
grow up to be a tennis player

149
00:07:39,886 --> 00:07:42,123
<i>like my father</i>
and his father before him

150
00:07:42,190 --> 00:07:43,693
<i>and his father before him.</i>

151
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,298
<i>We came from a long line</i>
of tennis dicks.

152
00:07:46,365 --> 00:07:47,434
<i>I had six brothers,</i>

153
00:07:47,501 --> 00:07:49,204
<i>but they'd all</i>
sliced off their hands

154
00:07:49,271 --> 00:07:50,707
<i>opening a tennis ball can,</i>

155
00:07:50,774 --> 00:07:53,713
<i>possibly the most dangerous</i>
object known to mankind.

156
00:07:53,780 --> 00:07:56,351
Hey, guys.
Anyone want to play tennis?

157
00:07:56,418 --> 00:07:58,055
Llewellyn, no!

158
00:08:04,167 --> 00:08:05,938
<i>But I would do</i>
everything I could

159
00:08:06,004 --> 00:08:08,342
<i>to make</i>
my now‐female father happy.

160
00:08:08,409 --> 00:08:09,679
<i>Practices were intense.</i>

161
00:08:09,745 --> 00:08:10,881
<i>I feel like you skipped over</i>

162
00:08:10,948 --> 00:08:12,852
<i>a very big story point</i>
right there.

163
00:08:12,918 --> 00:08:14,822
<i>My father was</i>
a World War II vet,

164
00:08:14,889 --> 00:08:17,293
<i>so he used to make me</i>
reenact the D‐Day landing

165
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:18,897
<i>with tennis ball machines.</i>

166
00:08:24,274 --> 00:08:25,811
<i>But the work paid off.</i>

167
00:08:25,878 --> 00:08:27,948
<i>I got invited</i>
to the first U. S. Open,

168
00:08:28,015 --> 00:08:30,954
<i>which, at the time,</i>
was called the U. S. Now Open.

169
00:08:31,021 --> 00:08:34,060

00:16:56,330 --> 00:16:57,432
<i>with a mean left hook,</i>

336
00:16:57,499 --> 00:17:00,472
<i>who farted every time</i>
he got punched in the stomach.

337
00:17:05,315 --> 00:17:08,288
<i>By the second round, the</i>
entire front row had pink eye.

338
00:17:11,360 --> 00:17:13,298
<i>I ran with a towel</i>
around my neck

339
00:17:13,364 --> 00:17:15,302
<i>tucked into my sweat suit,</i>
'cause I always wanted

340
00:17:15,368 --> 00:17:17,507
<i>to look like a rich guy</i>
in a bathrobe.

341
00:17:17,574 --> 00:17:20,312
<i>Then I promised Lois</i>
I'd see the Mark Rothko exhibit

342
00:17:20,378 --> 00:17:22,650
<i>at the Philadelphia</i>
Museum of Art.

343
00:17:22,717 --> 00:17:25,455
<i>But when I got there,</i>
it was closed.

344
00:17:29,396 --> 00:17:31,902
<i>Meanwhile, Lois and I</i>
were getting serious,

345
00:17:31,969 --> 00:17:33,338
<i>so I popped the question.</i>

346
00:17:33,404 --> 00:17:35,008
Hey, listen, Lois,
I was wondering,

347
00:17:35,075 --> 00:17:37,279
if you're not too busy,
what would you think

348
00:17:37,346 --> 00:17:39,584
about spending the previous part
of your life with me?

349
00:17:39,651 --> 00:17:42,657
I'm afraid that's
not possible, Peter.

350
00:17:42,724 --> 00:17:44,561
<i>But I was rising</i>
through the ranks

351
00:17:44,628 --> 00:17:46,898
<i>and fighting</i>
bigger and better opponents.

352
00:17:46,965 --> 00:17:48,636
<i>I fought Butterbean,</i>

353
00:17:48,702 --> 00:17:50,640
<i>then I fought Can't Believe</i>
It's Not Butterbean.

354
00:17:50,706 --> 00:17:53,478
<i>I could barely tell</i>
the difference.

355
00:17:53,545 --> 00:17:55,482
<i>I fought</i>
Sugar Ray Leonard Nimoy,

356
00:17:55,549 --> 00:17:57,386
<i>who put</i>
a Vulcan nerve pinch on me.

357
00:17:57,452 --> 00:17:59,624
<i>The fight was deemed</i>
highly illogical.

358
00:17:59,691 --> 00:18:02,029
<i>I defeated</i>
Lennox Lewis and the News,

359
00:18:02,095 --> 00:18:03,732
<i>Evander Sallyfield</i>

360
00:18:03,799 --> 00:18:05,503
<i>and Roberto Duran Duran.</i>

361
00:18:05,569 --> 00:18:07,272
<i>I was supposed</i>
to fight George Foreman,

362
00:18:07,339 --> 00:18:09,644
<i>but I only got</i>
George ThreeMenAndaBaby.

363
00:18:09,711 --> 00:18:11,848
<i>There's a lot more puns,</i>
but this episode's only got

364
00:18:11,915 --> 00:18:12,850
<i>a few minutes left.</i>

365
00:18:12,917 --> 00:18:15,723
<i>So finally,</i>
I got my shot at the title,

366
00:18:15,790 --> 00:18:17,259
<i>against a world champion‐‐</i>

367
00:18:17,325 --> 00:18:19,998
<i>Marvelous Marvin Mrs. Maisel.</i>

368
00:18:23,505 --> 00:18:25,408
Lois, no one's
ever gone the distance

369
00:18:25,475 --> 00:18:27,446
with Marvelous Marvin
Mrs. Maisel before.

370
00:18:27,513 --> 00:18:29,684
But if I can just
get in that ring yesterday...

371
00:18:29,751 --> 00:18:32,657
- Tomorrow.
- and hear that bell ring,
still standing,

372
00:18:32,724 --> 00:18:35,730
I'll know I'm not just
a bum from the streets.

373
00:18:35,796 --> 00:18:38,936
I believe in you, Peter.
Now go drink your eggs.

374
00:18:39,002 --> 00:18:41,742
Aah! Our dinnerware hutch!

375
00:18:41,808 --> 00:18:43,545
- Sorry.
-

376
00:18:43,612 --> 00:18:44,681
Sorry!

377
00:18:44,748 --> 00:18:46,083
Oh, they're mad.

378
00:18:51,427 --> 00:18:53,097
<i>I was outmatched.</i>
A no‐name punk

379
00:18:53,164 --> 00:18:55,101
<i>fighting the world champion.</i>

380
00:18:55,168 --> 00:18:57,372
<i>I fought my heart out.</i>
I dug deep and had

381
00:18:57,439 --> 00:18:59,577
<i>a kick‐ass song on my side,</i>
but we couldn't afford

382
00:18:59,644 --> 00:19:02,315
<i>the song from the movie,</i>
so we used the sound effects

383
00:19:02,382 --> 00:19:03,382
<i>from Nintendo</i> Punch‐Out!!

384
00:19:03,484 --> 00:19:05,054
‐ ‐Body blow.

385
00:19:05,121 --> 00:19:07,092
Body blow.
Body blow. Uppercut.

386
00:19:07,159 --> 00:19:09,396
Uppercut. Body blow. Uppercut.

387
00:19:09,463 --> 00:19:11,835
‐

388
00:19:11,902 --> 00:19:13,104
‐

389
00:19:24,092 --> 00:19:25,963
<i>The swollen eyes</i>
weren't from the fight.

390
00:19:26,030 --> 00:19:27,767
<i>There was a cat in the arena</i>

391
00:19:27,834 --> 00:19:30,138
<i>- and I was highly allergic.</i>
-

392
00:19:30,205 --> 00:19:31,508
<i>But I'd done it.</i>

393
00:19:31,575 --> 00:19:33,377
<i>The only fighter</i>
ever to go the distance

394
00:19:33,444 --> 00:19:34,379
<i>with the champ.</i>

395
00:19:34,446 --> 00:19:35,446
<i>But in that moment,</i>

396
00:19:35,481 --> 00:19:38,589
<i>there was only one thing</i>
I could think about.

397
00:19:38,655 --> 00:19:42,697
Peter, the Rothko exhibit
at the museum is reopened!

398
00:19:42,763 --> 00:19:44,834
Are you busy last week?

399
00:19:44,901 --> 00:19:46,136
<i>She had nailed me.</i>

400
00:19:46,203 --> 00:19:49,176
<i>I was, in fact, free last week.</i>

401
00:19:49,243 --> 00:19:52,082
<i>I was the pride of Philadelphia.</i>

402
00:19:52,148 --> 00:19:54,419
<i>Eventually, I became the champ.</i>

403
00:19:54,486 --> 00:19:56,791
<i>I also changed</i>
my inspirational music

404
00:19:56,858 --> 00:19:58,562

00:20:08,649 --> 00:20:10,786
<i>I fell into a vat</i>
of Philadelphia Cream Cheese

411

Hey, Joe, what about you?
You're a pretty athletic guy.

419
00:20:32,062 --> 00:20:34,499
- You got any sports stories?
- Funny you should ask.

420
00:20:34,567 --> 00:20:35,903
Actually, back in 1988,

421
00:20:35,970 --> 00:20:39,577
I took part in the Crystal Light
Aerobics Competition.
