''Don't be a bad dagh..."
Gotta love the Mick. My favorite Mantle story.....
When Canseco was the first since the Mick to steal 40 bases and hit 40 home runs a reporter asked him what he thought. He replied, "If I had known they were going to make such a big deal about it I would have done it a few more times."
Not to burst your bubble, but I am pretty sure Mantle never stole 40 bases, I think his season high was 21.
You are correct. It's been almost 18 years since I've read that particular issue of Sports Illustrated. Sorry for messing up the exact wording of his quote, but you get the jest....
