:54:01
...but Mickey Mantle is
right behind him with 48.
:54:04
The only question now is,
which "M" to root for?
:54:07
No doubt it's Mickey Mantle.
He's the greatest player that ever was.
:54:12
I don't wanna see Roger Maris
break the record.
:54:15
He's always frowning.
Besides, Mickey's such a dreamboat.
:54:19
Hey, Dreamboat.
:54:20
If anyone's gonna break the record,
I think it ought to be Mantle.
:54:24
Because, after all, he's really a Yankee.
:54:28
The real Yankee kinda guy.
:54:31
I never heard of this guy Maris
till last year.
:54:34
I don't know. He leaves me flat.
:54:37
- And who are you rooting for?
- I want Roger.
:54:40
There you go, you got a vote.
:54:42
Because everyone else
is rooting for Mickey.
:54:45
The year Ruth hit 60,
his teammate, Lou Gehrig hammered 47.
:54:49
They were bitter rivals and barely spoke.
:54:51
As for the M&M Boys,
Im told there's also a rift, even a feud...
:54:55
- Are we feudin'?
- Yeah, I guess so. Its on TV.
:54:59
- Fuck you, then.
- Up yours.
:55:02
Yankee players are pulling for Mantle,
but you didn't hear that from me.
:55:06
From Yankee stadium, Im Gabe Pressman.
:55:14
Time for Andy Griffith.
:55:22
Bob, are you awake?
:55:24
Yeah, sort of.
:55:28
Is it true...
:55:31
...what they were saying on TV there
about Mickey...
:55:34
...and all the fellas rootin' for him?
:55:36
Don't ask me this.
:55:39
Its all right. I just wanna know.
:55:45
What are you, a reporter all of a sudden?
:55:53
How should I know what anybody thinks?
:55:56
I mean, Mickey's been here forever.
:55:58
I know.
:55:59
Most of the guys,
they've known him five or ten years.
