Man: Duke, if this Samoan boy is as good as you say, there's no way we could afford him. Duke: Wrong, Bobby. In fact, he could save the 'skins a bundle. With "Lava-lava" out there, we can cut back on other linemen. They'd just get in the way, anyway. And that goes for offense as well as defense. Man: What're you talking about? Duke: See, before each game, the boy works himself up into such a fever pitch that you ahve to let him play on both squads! Man: How do you get him off at half-time? Duke: Dart gun. Also, the refs usually help.
