OT: The Oscars: Inspirational Movie Quotes for the Bucks.
Posted: Sun Feb 24, 2008 2:55 pm
In honor of the Oscars, here's your chance to fire up the Bucks with something that someone else wrote.
Watching just how unathletic/unwilling Redd seems to be on the defensive end last night (not taking away from his ability to put the ball in the hoop) I was reminded of one of my favorite scenes from Major League.
The Bucks need a Jake Taylor ASAP. I'm so sick of them losing that I'd rather miss the playoffs and win as many games as possible than watch them tank. I doubt that they can make the playoffs, but winning sure does feel better than stolidity a loss brings.

Major League wrote: Jake Taylor: What I was concerned with was why you didn't come up with that grounder that Rockert hit in the 9th.
Roger Dorn: It was out of my reach, what do you want me to do dive for it?
Jake Taylor: Rog, it could have meant the game!
Roger Dorn: oh come on cut the rah-rah ****, Taylor! Year after this I go free agent. Plus me and my agent got a couple of plans for life after baseball. So I am not about to risk major injury or displace this property for a collection of stiffs!
Jake Taylor: Ya know Dorn, I liked you so much better when you were just a ballplayer. If you wanna be an interior decorator now that's none of my business. But some of us still need this team. Now you listen to me! This is my last shot at a winner and for some of the younger guys it could be their only shot. I don't know what happened to you. But if you ever, ever tank another play like you did today, I'm gonna cut your nuts off and stuff em down your **** throat!

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. What's our record, boy?
Larry: Eight and sixteen.
Skip: 8-16! How the hell did we ever win eight?
Larry: It's a miracle.
Skip: It's a miracle!
