Men of a certain age remember Eddie LEON of the White Sox



And would like to spend the summer playing in the Ponce de LEON baseball league.

Default I am honored

I am honored, guys. All 5000 posts (in a little over 2 yrs) means is I spend far too much time on the board. I appreciate the recognition.

I was going to roll with Leon "Red" Ames, but found no way to top this.

Best,

Andy

Default Leon Black

One of the funniest characters on the funniest show...

Long Balls...

Larry: "I'm not wearing that underwear."
Leon: "You gotta do it. You got long balls, Larry. Long balls, you've got long ass balls."
Larry: "I've got long balls?"
Leon: "Doctor, you've seen his balls, right?"
Larry: "Would you say I have unusually long.."
Doctor: "They're a bit more distended than the average testicles."
Leon: "You got long ass balls, Larry. 'Long Ball Larry', that's your new name."
Larry: "Long balls..who the hell knew?"
Leon: "Long balls, change your draws."

After an unfortunate accident (that really could only happen to Larry), the doctor recommends that he switch to no-fly underwear. This leads to a discussion of the size of Larry's 'parts,' setting up this hilarious quote from Leon.

SFMays24- thanks for sharing that, one of the funnier scenes in Curb. Leon is an incredibly funny character on the show, still freeloading at Larry's house for no apparent reason.
