More pine tar, please.

An actual quote from Kenny Rogers:

“Don’t be afraid to give up the good for the great.”

An actual quote from Kenny Rogers (the baseball player, as the above is the musician):

“I rub up the balls between the innings and before the game all of the time,” Rogers said Monday. “I rub up the bullpen balls I pitch with with mud, resin, spit. I do it all the time. They rub the ball up, too, with mud before the games.

“The game balls, they’re dirty. Usually, when I get done, there’s not much on my hand, but I guess a little bit more than normal. I wiped it off and proceeded to pitch seven pretty good innings,” he said. “Mud, resin, sweat. It’s always there. I try not to go crazy with it, but it’s not making my pitches do anything crazy.”

If you just assume that Kenny Rogers is talking about testicles, it’s absolutely hilarious. Read it again.
