Okay, well, uh... candlesticks always make a nice gift, and uh, maybe you could find out where she's registered and maybe a place-setting or maybe a silverware pattern. Okay, let's get two! Go get 'em.

Come on, Meat. Show us that million dollar arm, cuz I got a real good idea about that ten cent head of yours.

Edit: I might add that I frequently use “to announce my presence with authority” in casual conversation.

This. It's such a versatile phrase.

[Hate 20149]

Get a hit Crash!

 

Shut up.

[C-Man 27286]

I’ve never seen Crash so angry and frankly, sports fans, he used a word that’s a no-no with umpires.

Crash musta called the guy a cocksucker.

Ummm, he’s so romantic.

[BornOrange 1441]

Hey. Relax. Don’t try to strike everybody out. Strikeouts are boring. Besides that, they’re fascist. Throw some ground balls. It’s more democratic.

[mdleast 8318]

Skip: "You guys. You lollygag the ball around the infield. You lollygag your way down to first. You lollygag in and out of the dugout. You know what that makes you? Larry!"

Larry: "Lollygaggers!"

Skip: "Lollygaggers."

When you get in a fight with a drunk, you don’t hit them with your pitching hand. God! I can’t keep giving you these free lessons. Quit screwing around and help me up.

I went to high school with a guy that had a long career in the majors.  Of all the quotable/memorable scenes this was his favorite.  I like to think it speaks to the mindset required to make the show.

[cactusflinthead 27609]

Don’t think. It can only hurt the ballclub.

Costner’s charisma in the 80’s was off the charts. He’s been in too many dramas and takes himself too seriously.

"Yeah, and he scrambled the son of a bitch. Look at that, he hit the fucking bull! Guy gets a free steak! You having fun yet?"

"God, he tee'd off on that like he knew I was gonna throw a fastball."

"He did know."

"How?"

"I told him."

I've said it on other thread, but Costner has been in some fantastic movies (Fandango, No Way Out, Bull Durham, Field of Dreams, Dances with Wolves, JFK, A Perfect World).  But he's also been in a lot of crap.

[Underdog 28808]

Excuse me, sir.  But Waterworld isn’t crap!

If you win 20 in the show you can let fungus grow back on your shower shoes and the press will think you’re colorful.

[C-Man 27286]

Well, I believe in the soul, the cock, the pussy, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days. Good night!

[oSuJeff97 3435]

It's not "wooly." Nobody gets "wooly." Women get weary, they don't get wooly. Nobody's got stress, they're wearing a dress... God damn I hate people who get the words wrong...

“I was in the show for 21 days once. Twenty-one greatest days of my life. You know you never handle your luggage in the show? Someone else carries your bags. It’s great. You hit white balls for batting practice. Ballparks are like cathedrals.”

We stopped off in Durham a few years ago on our way back home so that I can see Cameron Indoor and totally kick myself for not remembering to stop by the ball park also.  

[Gooby 640]

Re Costner:  He does sports movies very well.  I sat through the abomination known as "For Love of The Game" just for the baseball parts.

Until you win 20 in the show, however, it makes you a SLOB.

Baseball in a nutshell

Crash Davis : Your fastball's up, your curveball's hanging. In the Show, they would've ripped you.

Ebby Calvin LaLoosh : Can't you even let me enjoy the moment?

Crash Davis : The moment's over.
