	" Gosh, all a kid has to do these days is spit straight and he gets forty-thousand dollars to sign. "		Cy Young

	" I thought I had to show all my stuff and I almost tore the boards of the grandstand with my fastball. "		Cy Young

	" One of the fellows called me 'Cyclone' but finally shortened it to 'Cy' and its been that ever since. "		Cy Young
