    Good year. Tough choices.

    This movie wins on the strength of Costner telling the bat boy to shut up and then chuckling to himself as he walks toward the plate. That's peak Kevin Costner.

    Two problems with Bull Durham. 1. Tim Robbins throwing motion makes Barack Obama look like a veteran. If you're gonna do a baseball movie pick an actor who has thrown a fucking baseball. 2. I had a very hard time believing any young hotshot jock would give ugly ass Susan Sarandon a second look.

    Otherwise great flick.

    This part was one of my favorites

    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.
    Ugly ass? LOL.

    Not saying she was a 10, but 80's Susan was still Wood.

    Look DJ, I know she's not Korean of Dot Indian. All I'm saying is she was a fit lady with huge jugs. A fella could have done a lot worse. Ugly is not the right label here.

    Sport with--by far--the largest ratio of movie awesomeness to actual sport awesomeness is Baseball. So many amazing baseball movies (Major League, of course, being the best).

    Tough choice this year between Die Hard, Rain Man, and Naked Gun.

    Books too. Grew up on baseball books. Never watch anymore but agree on movies as well

    My other favorite sport in books is golf. There were some great writers back in the day.

    Golf would be #2 in that ratio. Tin Cup, Happy Gilmore, Caddyshack.

    Die Hard

    Me looking at the results

    If the theatres did a reviewing of all of these movies, I guarantee that 90% of this board would go to the Die Hard viewing first.

    "A fella could have done a lot worse".

    Sure. She has nice legs in that pic your posted too fwiw.

    But she looked 55 when that movie was filmed. Not the kind of girl a 20 year old who thinks his shit doesn't stink like LaLoosh would be fucking around with. At all. It's completely unbelievable.
