We could talk about how Sam Cassell has whined his way into a buyout (and how he’s likely headed to Boston, where he will surely be helpful again until he turns into a pain in the [redacted] again); we could get into how Brad Richards had five points for Dallas last night; we could talk high school sports until we were blue in the face (good games tonight at the Fairgrounds Coliseum: Centennial vs. Blaine and Hill-Murray vs. White Bear Lake in a pair of section finals). But you know what Friday is: Movie quote time. In an effort to appease Ty Webb, we’re attempting to man-up this week’s entries. If you testosterone levels are sufficiently high, please follow us to the list of 10.
1. You take the van. I’ll keep the dog.
2. Kid, there’s something I ought to tell you. I never shot anybody before.
3. Claudia, she straightened me up, cleared me of drinkin’ whiskey and all. Just ’cause we’re goin’ on this killing, that don’t mean I’m gonna go back to bein’ the way I was.
4. Thank God for the rain to wash the trash off the sidewalk.
5. Do you really think you have a chance against us, Mr. Cowboy?
6. What we were after now was the old surprise visit. That was a real kick and good for laughs and lashings of the old ultraviolence.
7. Are you not entertained? Are you not entertained? Is this not why you are here?
8. I want you to promise me you’re not gonna stop this fight, no matter what. No matter what!
9. Say it louder. Say it louder! … I’ve abandoned my child! I’ve abandoned my child! I’ve abandoned my boy!
10. So his toe slipped over the line a little, big deal. It’s just a game, man.
Fasola-link! From ‘matt: “Know what this world needs? This world needs more television sitcoms with hot twin actresses. Buck Henry (”Get Smart”) made this satire of Star Trek. Six episodes, probably four more than needed to exhaust all of the jokes.”
Also, a bit of administrative business: the blog is changing servers starting at 4 p.m. today. You won’t really notice, but we also won’t be able to post between 4-8 (not like that’s primetime anyway) and any comments you leave during that time will likely be lost forever. So if you have a bunch of nonsense to vent about, and you don’t want it to be part of the permanent record, 4-8 is your time.
