So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it... well, he gets it. I don't like it any more than you men.

All my years of publicity. Of the fashion shows and radiothons for nothing... They come here tonight... to scout the Chiefs... the toughest team in the Federal League. Not this. Buncha... pussies." [At the Chiefs Fashion Show] Johnny Upton : I'm gonna flash'em, Joe. McGrath : No, you're not. Johnny Upton : I'm gonna open up this faggot robe and wiggle my dick at em. And do you know why?
