From the Wik.
Xavier McDaniel made his motion picture debut in 1992 when he made a brief cameo in the film Singles. In that movie, McDaniel appears in a “breaking the fourth wall” fantasy sequence when Campbell Scott begins thinking about the basketball pro while Scott is having an intimate romantic interlude. McDaniel comically tells Campbell Scott’s character, “Steve, don’t cum yet.”

"Outlaw, man! We salute you!"
From wiki:
The rhombus-shaped ‘One-percenter’ patch is also used, displaying ‘1%’, in red on a white background with a red merrowed border (refer to image at right, top). The term “one-percenter” is a response to the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) comment on the Hollister incident, in which the AMA stated that 99% of motorcyclists were law-abiding citizens and the last 1% were outlaws.

My favorite call of all time
Kirk Gibson’s HR. I love the brake lights in the background of the video, and Jack Buck’s call turned an 11 year old kid into a baseball junkie for life.

i didnt see it (i was 4)
but i grew up thinking Kirk Gibson was one of the best ballplayers of all time because of that. in my mind, it was Ruth, Aaron, Gibson.

I was a junior at OU.
I remember going through unlocked garages in my friend’s neighborhood trying to find brooms to take to the bars after the Game 4 win.
And I remember thinking that I wasn’t going to church the next day.

I'll come clean
With limited TV and being far enough away that I didn’t see enough print coverage, I thought the Mets were a gift from the god as a kid. The 90 WS turned me onto the Reds since they were ‘local’, and it’s been a wild ride since.

You're not alone.
TBS made the Braves the team I rooted for a lot of my childhood, even in Iowa (Cubs/Sox country). My friends and I would play in the backyard, and we always played Braves vs. Sox because they were the only teams we knew the full lineups to.

I'm wondering a little about defensive scouting
the Reds have seemed in poor position a few times this series. Contrarily, the Dodgers seem to be where they need to be.
(probably a fluke)
Curse and drat, he's outmaneuvered us.
I hate Pete Rose
The person, that is. I can’t stand to hear him talk at all. He’s a classic example of the old guard. You know what, times change. There may be a common thread involving trust of fellow players, but the game is vastly different now. Get over it and realize they’re not allowed to take greenies and go balls out for six months in a row.
