It's true or at least I've always heard it was true.

I guarantee he's not the last pro athlete to smoke though.

I am pretty sure that you could still roust out a few pro athletes in eastern or southern Europe who smoke.

Even in the states, I'm sure there are at the very least baseball players who smoke. There are still plenty of soccer players who smoke.

Joachim Loew, the Germany manager was smoking like a chimney during the last game when he had a touchline ban.

There's a story, a funny story, about me sitting in a restaurant. I'm eating this big meal and maybe having a couple of beers and smoking a cigarette. A woman comes by the table. She recognizes me and she's shocked because it seems like I should be in training or something. She's getting all over me, saying that a professional athlete should take better care of himself. I lean back and I say to her, "I ain't an athlete, lady. I'm a baseball player."
