I don't know where I'd be without my best friend." -Herm Albright "The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of dispair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing - and face with us the reality of our powerlessness - that is the friend who really cares." -Henri Nouwen ~~The best and most beautiful things must be felt with the heart~~ -Helen Keller- ~~Friendship is the golden thread that ties the heart to all the world~~ -John Evelyn- **So many languages in the world, and a smile speaks them all** -Unknown- ~~Let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of love~~ -Mother Teresa- "A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out."

If they return, they were always yours. If they don't, they never were." -Anon. "A relationship is like a rose, How long it lasts, no one knows; Love can erase an awful past, Love can be yours, you'll see at last; To feel that love, it makes you sigh, To have it leave, you'd rather die; You hope you've found that special rose, 'Cause you love and care for the one you chose." -Rob Cella "Immature love says: 'I love you because I need you.'

If you don't stop and look around once in a while you could miss it. Rev. Johnson: Now, I don't have to tell you good folks, what has been happening here in our beloved little town: sheriff murdered, crops burned, stores looted, people stampeded, and cattle raped. Lou Brown: Better teach this kid some control before he kills somebody. ----- Pedro Cerrano: I'm pissed now, Joboo. Look, I go to you. I stick up for you. You no help me now, I say, fu** you, Joboo. I do it myself. ----- Rachel Phelps: I wanna put together a team that will help us relocate to Miami. Charlie Donovan: What do ya mean? Some of these guys are furniture movers? ----- Lou Brown: You may run like Mays, but you hit like sh**. ----- Harry Doyle: Monte, anything to add? Monte: Uh, no. Harry Doyle: He's not the best colorman in the league for nothing. ----- Harry Doyle: One hit. That's all we got, one Goddamn hit?! Monte: You can't say "Goddamn" on the air. Harry Doyle: Don't worry. Nobody's listening anyway. ----- Harry Doyle: Just a reminder fans about "Die Hard Night" coming up at the stadium: free admission to anyone who was actually alive the last time the Indians won a pennant. ----- Rachel Phelps: Any ideas? Charlie Donovan: On how we can get worse? How about a series of fines for good play? Maybe a thirty-thousand dollar bonus for the guy voted least valuable player? ----- Charlie Donovan: Must be Cerrano. Defected from Cuba, wanted religious freedom. Lou Brown: What's his religion? Charlie Donovan: Voodoo. ----- Willie Mays Hayes: Willie Mays Hayes, here. Play like Mays, and I run like Hayes. ----- Director: I've never heard of half of these guys. And, the ones I do know are way past their prime. Charlie Donovan: Most of these guys never had a prime. ----- Lou Brown: Every newspaper in the country has picked us to finish last. The local press seems to think we'd save everyone a lot of time and trouble if we just went out and shot ourselves. Me, I'm for wasting sports writers' time. So, I'd like to hang around and see if we can give 'em all a nice big sh**burger to eat. ----- Lou Brown: I thought you didn't have any high priced talent. Charlie Donovan: Forget about Dorn 'cause he's only high priced. ----- Willie Mays Hayes: Cerrano wants some extra power for tonight. He's looking to sacrifice a live chicken. Hey, Jake, man, we can't have people puking in the locker room before the game. ----- Charlie Donovan: What are ya saying? You want us to lose? Rachel Phelps: No. We've been losing. What I want is for us to finish dead last. ----- Rick "Wild Thing" Vaughn: You put snot on the ball? Eddie Harris: I haven't got an arm like yours. I got to put anything on it I can find. Someday you will too. ----- Jake Taylor: [Y]our a celebrity now, Vaughn. Rick "Wild Thing" Vaughn: I thought you had to do something good to be a celebrity. Jake Taylor: Not if you do it colorfully. ----- Jake Taylor: This guy's the out you've been waiting your whole life for. ----- Lou Brown: [I] want the absolute truth here. Are you one hundred percent? Jake Taylor: Yeah. Would I bullsh** you about something like that? Lou Brown: You better, you wanna make this team. ----- Pedro Cerrano: Hats for bats. Rube Baker: I never has a regular girlfriend like you, but I did get kicked in the balls once by a mule. Now, I thought that I would be hurting for the rest of my life, but you know what happened the very next week? Rick Vaughn: What? Rube Baker: My momma died. ----- Harry Doyle: As you know Monte, Vaughn has been working on a couple of new pitches: the Eliminator, and the Humiliator; to compliment his fast ball, the Terminator. Monte: I heard that. Harry Doyle: Dynamite drop in, Monte. That broadcast school has really paid off. ----- Harry Doyle: That looked like the Terminator, only slower. Maybe it was his out-of-stater, or it could have been the Hibernator--that baby is definitely going away for the winter. Whatever for Vaughn, it might be see-ya-later. He's probably gonna become a spectator. ----- Harry Doyle: The outfield walls now look like the yellow pages. And, any of you folks having trouble finding a good proctologist might want to come down here and check out the area around the 375 foot sign. ----- Rube Baker: Women--you can't live without 'em, and they can't pee standing up. ----- Harry Doyle: Back goes Cerrano. He'll need a rocket up his ass to catch this one. That baby is outta here. ----- Harry Doyle: [T]aylor is going to send in Hayes to run. Went to see his movie, but it was only out for two-and-a-half hours. I was told, however, it was in focus. ----- Harry Doyle: Good news, fans. The Indians are showing signs of life for the first time in weeks. As a matter of fact, they appear to be beating the crap out of each other. ----- Rube Baker: They're gonna send me back to Omaha, and I don't even live there. ----- Rube Baker: [Y]ou're standing on the tracks, and the train's coming through, butthead. ----- Jake Taylor: Okay, Rick, let's get nasty. ----- Rube Baker: [T]here ain't no odds against beating yourself no matter what the percentages are. ----- Harry Doyle: Somebody caught it! ----- Jake Taylor: You name your pitches now? ----- Harry Doyle: Humiliator, lined to left. Base hit. Eliminator, lined to right. Another base hit. There's some real puss lined to center. ----- Rick Vaughn: I've got a new one I'll show you. You get a piece of it, I'll let you name it. Jack Parkman: I'd, uh, call it the masturbator. ----- Jack Parkman: I'm the only winner on the team, the rest of 'em are losers--either by choice, or by birth. ----- Pedro Cerrano: I free and clear. Rick Vaughn: Did he say "free and queer"? Pedro Cerrano: Clear! Free of anger and hostility that run Cerrano's life! ----- Johnny: Mild Thing, you make my butt sting! ----- Harry Doyle: So, the Indians have a runner. I think I'll wet my pants. ----- Rube Baker: Willie's really got some power. Lou Brown: Off a guy who'll be bagging groceries in a couple weeks! ----- Rube Baker: What are they? Jake Taylor: "They" are our center fielder. |
