Ralph Mowry:
Bo Ridley Callahan. He's an only child. His mom's a homemaker, his father's a medical malpractice lawyer. He's made some money. Pays his taxes. He's got three years left on his mortgage. Well, the kid's pretty vanilla. Belonged to a few clubs in high school. He had a walk-on role in "Damn Yankees". Was on the honor roll from junior high through college. Kept his nose clean, he worked out, and... well, you know, he threw a football better than anybody in the great states of Washington or Wisconsin.
Sonny Weaver Jr.:
But?
Ralph Mowry:
How do you know there's a "but"?
Sonny Weaver Jr.:
Because you're an unoriginal bastard, Ralph. So, go on. But...
Ralph Mowry:
But during his final year at Wisconsin, he had a big dinner for his 21st birthday at some restaurant. Locals find out who the dinner's for, and they start filin' in. Things get out of control. Manager called the cops when somebody broke into his office and stole some money. And of course, none of this is Bo's fault.
Sonny Weaver Jr.:
Of course. But...?
Ralph Mowry:
But the cops came and they took everybody's name regardless. It was a few hundred people. Standard operating procedure.
Sonny Weaver Jr.:
But...?
Ralph Mowry:
Ask me who wasn't there.
Sonny Weaver Jr.:
Who wasn't there, Ralph?
Ralph Mowry:
Any of his teammates. None of his teammates came to the poor guy's birthday party, Sonny.
