The James Garner story is pure gold. It is at least a generation ago, but we need to acknowledge the legends. Gerald McRainey is no joke, but he still humbly remembers Garner being a gentleman. I'm a Gerald fan, now.

I’m a big fan of Jericho and McRaney’s roll. However, he had what might be one of the best lines in all of the West Wing with his guest performance. Meeting with Leo (John Spence) and discussing a war crimes treaty at the UN, McRaney says to Leo, “All wars are crimes.” Still gives me goosebumps.

Remember a story, likely from TV Guide (Remember that?) that Garner had a fight scene with another actor & the actor hit him. Garner, thinking it was an accident, let it go but when it happened again Garner nailed him nearly knocking the guy out.

McRaney is so good, especially in Deadwood. The irony is, George Hearst was, in reality, NOTHING like the character. He was a very nice guy, and his wife was wonderful. But, Milch's creative license was great. Best show, ever.

Nobody is going to mention him saying: “I was fairly quick. I could do a ten flat 100 in those days….” The world record is 9.58, Carl Lewis ran it 9.86. Hopefully he either misspoke or did it just to gauge how full of s**t the individual with whom he is having a conversation is or how well they are listening.
