Our reporter sits in The Great Room at The Manor watching baseball and sipping cold beverages with Poindexter Del Crunchy and the Man In The Hat.
Reporter: "Nice start for your Pirates this year, Wiz, but it doesn't look like it's going to happen..."
Man In The Hat (nodding): "It's not. This team isn't ready. Too many holes in too many spots. Good pieces in some others. Another year or two? Maybe. But, only maybe."
Reporter: "Only maybe?"
Pointy: "There are ZERO guarantees in any sport, lad..."
Man In The Hat: "Exactly. Zero. You plan and you work and sometimes it comes together and sometimes it doesn't. You've seen that here at Front Street. The fighters have ALL gotten better, but, some have gotten to championship level and others didn't..."
Reporter: "Just like baseball teams..."
Man In The Hat: "And football teams and basketball teams and soccer teams. You build. And you work. And you improve. But. Everybody doesn't get there. And, to paraphrase Tom Petty, sometimes the waiting is the hardest part..."
Reporter: "Are we talking about Mudd here?"
Pointy: "Feel free to move on from that one, lad..."
Man In The Hat: "What Pointy said. Now, let's watch some ball, shall we?"
