Well, I'll let Max and Tom speak for themselves.

Me? On my Fathers side I have relatives in Wales, England,
Scotland, and Ireland, although my people came to this country in
1642 (king deeded estates). My Mom was Polish.

My best friends are all Irish, and I spend most of my time among
them. If you're ever in Chicago, I'll treat you to more pints than
you can tip! Not to mention backing you in any alley on the planet.

Guess that's clear enough....
