Best film from the Kevin Costner Baseball Trilogy?

Charlie, here comes the deuce. And when you speak of me, speak well.

RUN! DUMMY!

These were HUGE motivating factors/mantras in my training for the marathon. Seriously.

We need to find out what smartass voted for "For the Love of the game" and go shoot out their porchlight. Seriously.

"Crash must have called him a cocksucker."

"(Sigh) He's soooo romantic."

there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter."

'Nuff said.

Because Tim Robbins was fucking hot in that movie. Sorry, but I can be so shallow sometimes.

i thought he looked all gawky and awkward...which might be what they were going for, but still.

And yes, he was hot.

I swear, that woman could read to me out of the phone book, and I'd be gazing at her with rapt attention... "Lee, Joseph L., 1350 Ala Moana Blvd., 949-0000..." :loveya:

edit: smilie

And those legs....wow...

I had no idea Costner did musicals...

For the Love of the Game. It was a real love story. I liked the way the story was told in flashbacks. Best in depth look at a players mind and the mental stamina that goes into the game. But the best quotes were from Bull Durham. My fav scene....The one on the mound, where the short stops mitt was cursed, the pitchers parents were watching and they didn't know what to get the bride and groom. Who could concentrate with all that shit going on. (I always wondered what went on during those mound conferences). I also liked the list of cliches that Tim got from Kevin. As one that loves baseball and read the interviews......I laughed my ass off cause I've heard them a million times. But my fav baseball movie was The Natural...King Arthur meets the Red Soxs.

Edited to add I that no one better mess with my lights. I keep a couple of base ball bats around the house and I know how to use them. I can thow a baseball (from a distance) with accuracy too! I got my eye on you underpants:spank:

;) I watched that movie this past weekend!


"What speech should we give?"
"How about the lollygaggers speech?"
:rofl:

The other two were chick flicks.

Major (NPI) points for authenticity. :thumbsup:



The others sucked at it.

...by many objective criteria? And I really liked "Bull." But "Field" gets my vote for purely sentimental reasons. Hell, I got teary-eyed when I saw it when it first came out. And I'm a man who keeps his feelings inside, largely. Since that time, my own father has passed away-- yes, the man I used to play "catch" with-- and I can only imagine that if I were to see it today, I'd never stop crying. It'd probably be very cathartic for me to do so. Hell, maybe I will.

and shoeless joe jackson

bull durham takes the prize

awesome movie

:thumbsup:

:hi:

of Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon.

How about Robert Wuhl!?!?:rofl: :spray: :rofl:

Nuke wearing a Fishbone t-shirt when he finally makes it. That wasn't the work of a clever publicist. Fishbone played in Durham while they were filming it and impressed the crew so much that they put their shirt in the movie.

The shrine to Thurmon Munson. I always wondered if Crash Davis got called up to the majors because of the Munson crash.

The condensation from people's breath during mid-summer games in Durham. (They shot the movie in late fall, I bet it drove them nuts trying to make that not noticeable).

Love the ending.
