    Considering all the times Jake put his hands on her I thought she'd be rooting for Robinson.

    It was a what-goes-around-comes-around from the ‘He ain’t pretty no more’ beating Jake put on Tony Janiro after Vikki said Janiro was a good-looking kid.

    Tony Janiro was born February 2 1926. My grandfather was born February 2 1935. What are the odds??

    The odds of more than one person being born on a 2nd of February?
    At least a million-to-one.
