1:23:00
'Cause it's fun.
Don't matter if you ain't no good.
1:23:03
It takes your mind
off of everything else.
1:23:06
And when you're trying to score
a touchdown...
1:23:09
that's all you're thinking about.
1:23:11
I ain't no account,
but Daddy always said...
1:23:14
he was proud of me when I threw the ball
and ran with it.
1:23:18
Did you have any brothers and sisters
growing up to play with?
1:23:22
I had one there for a little bit.
1:23:25
But...
1:23:28
it didn't get old enough
for me to play with it.
1:23:30
Why not? It die?
1:23:33
Yes, sir.
1:23:35
Why?
1:23:37
It got born a little too early.
1:23:40
My mother and father
made it come out too early.
1:23:45
So it died when it come out?
1:23:49
My daddy come out to the shed
and got me...
1:23:53
said, "Here. Take this
and throw it away."
1:23:55
He handed me a towel
with something or another in it.
1:24:01
I started for that barrel...
1:24:04
and I opened up the towel
'cause there was a noise...
1:24:08
and something moving around in it.
1:24:12
That towel was all bloody-like
all around it there.
1:24:20
It was a little old baby,
not no bigger than a squirrel.
1:24:25
It was alive?
1:24:27
Yes, sir.
Right then it was.
1:24:31
A boy or girl?
1:24:34
It was a little old boy.
1:24:38
You threw it in the trash barrel?
1:24:41
That didn't seem right to me.
1:24:44
So I went into the shed
and got a shoe box...
1:24:46
and emptied out the screwdrivers,
washers and nuts...
1:24:49
and things out of it.
1:24:52
I taken the little feller
and put him in the box...
1:24:55
buried him in the corner of the yard.
1:24:58
That seemed more proper to me,
I reckon.
