I wish I could give up...
...because NC State Basketball is like an addictive poison. It slowly kills you, but once you're hooked, you're hooked. On to today's sports movie:
#2--Bull Durham (1988)
Ahh, minor league baseball. Also, a great three-person cast. This film chronicles the ups and downs of relationships during a minor league baseball season in Durham, NC. Great story, great writing, great acting, and, a very quotable movie. Look out for the visuals of the old Durham Athletic Park and a very famous scene in Mitch's Tavern in Raleigh. This movie is great and is #2 only because #1 is awesome.
Memorable Quote:
(Once again, there are many. I chose this one because of its association with Mitch's, and thus my alma mater)
[LaLoosh challenged Davis to a fight]
Ebby Calvin LaLoosh: I don't hit no man first.
Crash Davis: All right, then...
[throws him a baseball]
Crash Davis: ... hit me in the chest with that.
Ebby Calvin LaLoosh: I'd kill you!
Crash Davis: Yeah? From what I hear, you couldn't hit water if you fell out of a f***ing boat.
Today's musical selection:
David Allen Coe--Jack Daniel's, If You Please
