"When I first came aboard, I think I was out drinking with Wally Backman. We were on the road and I said to Wally, 'I'm going to wake up Carter.' I was mule-kicking his hotel door. The Kid was nice, never cussed. But he pinned me against the wall and said, 'You ever do this again...' I saw the fire in his eyes, dude." - Lenny Dykstra
