I always wondered how Indians fans felt about the movie. Especially considering that the team at the timewas much worse than the fictional team ever was at any point in any of the films. Hell yes we were worse. In the movie, we got a decent outfield, and Roger Dorn could sometimes field the ball at third. In real life, we had Joe Carter as our only offense, with Cory Snyder sucking in left, and a middle and left side of the infield that was where ground outs went to mature into doubles. I will admit, when my dad let me watch the movie with him (he took me to the theater to see it, and got stares since I was not quite 11 at the time) and I admit I got a little choked hearing Euker's call at the end. AND THE INDIANS WIN IT!! THE INDIANS WIN IT!! OH MY GOD, THE INDIANS WIN IT!! Funny this topic should come up, as I had just watched it last night myself.

The Third one made no sence. I mean we go from The Indians to the Twins. Dorn who was bankrupt in the second one is owner again? how he make so much money so fast? Now what happened to the Indians? There anouncer Euker is now a minor league anouncer. Several indians are now minor leaguers. The Catcher who ha control problems. Taka never said out he was running a putt putt golf. Cerno well was weird.
Still never explained the whole Indian to Twins deal.

Lou Brown's still my favorite guy in that movie.
"Hey, Lou, how would you like to coach the Indians this year?" "Weeeeeell...I dunno..." "What do you mean, you don't know?" "Listen, can I call you back? I got a guy on the other line asking about some whitewalls."
I still like to do Lou's "Iiiiinteresting..." after Ricky hits the batter in real life.

My favorite line of the movie is The boxscore today for the Indians, 0 runs on 1 hit. 1 hit, we only got one goddamn hit! You can't say goddamn on the air! Don't worry, no one's listening.

i LOVE 2. comepletly underrated movie
Rube Baker is the greatest character all time, all my life.
Women: you can't live with them, and they can't pee standing up.~Rube Baker
My momma always said, "It's better to eat shit than to not eat at all.~Rube Baker
Rube Baker: Hey. Ya know Ricky, breaking up with a girlfriend can be a very painful thing. But it don't have to keep ya down for long. I mean, let me tell ya something from my own personal experience. I've never had a regular girlfriend like you, but I did get kicked in the balls once by a mule. Now, I thought 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. Hell, after that, I didn't care no more about my balls hurtin'. You see what I'm gettin' at?

I love the line when Vaughn pulls up on the motorcycle at the start of spring and Lou Brown says "My kinda team Charlie, it's my kinda team". In fact, most any Lou Brown line is excellent.
But I always laugh when Hayes is stealing second in the playoff game and Brown yells "COME ON!"

JOBU NEEDS A REFILL" *gets wonked with flying bat*

"Hat for bat. Keep bat warm. Gracias."
"Hey! Amigo! You can't just........"
Cerrano shoots Dorn the death glare.
"..............You're welcome."

"Heywood leads the league in most offensive categories, including nose hair. When this guy sneezes he looks like a party favor."

"The Duke leads the league in strikeouts, saves and hit batsmen. This guy threw at his own kid in a father-son game."
Also, another reason this movie is awesome: The Janitor is in it.

I like the ground crew. They always sayd in subtitle "There Sh*tty". Then later the in the movie they say "There still Sh*tty."
Cerno "It is very bad to take Jabu's rum.....It's very bad"

I was @ Hi Corbett Field (where spring training was filmed) in Tucson, AZ. this spring training, it's just not the same without the indians training there. I always think about the movie whenever I see a game there.
