This is part of the soundtrack of my teenage years.
If you grew up playing baseball at all, this movie is the GOAT (along with Bull Durham) and one-liners from it permeated every dugout you ever sat in.
Who the hell are the Cleveland GUARDIANS

Honestly, I could care less that they changed their mascot/name. I am sick and tired of cancel cultural. Both sides do it now and chase it for the money. Was Redskins names awful and need to be changed? Yes, redskins is not a great look and honestly a white example of this would be if Notre Dame would be the fighting gingers and their mascot was a drunk. Also, the Indian logo was not great, but they could have handled the change so much better.
At least they didn't pick an army (cough rebels) that got smoked by General Grant. Am I the only one that finds it awesome and funny that the guy that originally destroyed the rebels/racists has his library on our campus?

Every time this comes up, I think about back in the 90s when the Braves were winning and won a world series. Some 17ing idiots including jane fonda started protesting the Braves name. One of the local stations interviewed Chief Martin, head of the Mississippi Choctaws. He was asked if he was offended by Atlanta using the Braves as their name and mascot, He responded, "Not now, they're winning, I was offended when they were losing 100 games a year."
Like clock work gopher coming in to do the liberals work.
I don't know what 'the liberals work' means. I just found it funny that a topic was brought up like 3 years after it was actually in the news.
'Hey everyone, what's the deal with Tiger Woods being attacked with a 9iron?!'
The Chiefs do a little, the Braves do a lot, Florida State does it way too much to the point of being annoying….but State does cowbells so pot/kettle.
I found the first post funny and replied with a joke.
Try not to confuse humor and outrage.
I do have pretty bad carpal tunnel.I didn't say all liberals. I said limp wristed liberals with gender confusion. There's lots of good ones with common sense out there.
Also:
"doing the lord's work"
"doing the liberal's work"
You seem to only chime in when it fits your liberal agenda.
I have no issues when it comes to confusing humor with outrage. Your takes, however, confuse no one.
Personally, I think Delta State should be next. Did you know that every year millions of okras are sacrificed to be part of a delicious gumbo? OLM
Along these lines, we should all take a moment to consider whether we should align in solidarity with those outraged and offended over Arkansas Tech calling themselves the Wonder Boys.
Speaking of offensive. When is Anthony Jeselnik going to come out with a new special? I need a fix.
It will not surprise me if Cowboys start protesting to have their name removed from the Dallas Cowboys. Not because it is raciest, but it is hurting their overall brand. Cowboys were once feared, now people are afraid to trust them. Watching the cowboys has people afraid to call because they are afraid, they will fold during the bank robbery playoffs.
OT cooking a big pot of gumbo this morning trying to bring good karma to the Tigahs !!!
I don't know, I see Fighting Irish fighting on here all the time. Granted, it's just the one guy.**
Yeah that’s Greenville St Joe though. You know how those Washington Co River Rats are. They aren’t civilized like us good Warren and Adams Co Catholics.
“Wonderboy, what is the secret of your power?”
Thats been on repeat in my head for the last 20 minutes.
...and now this took over.
The thing missing in all these discussions is no one named their team "in the old days" to make fun or deride a group of people or animals. They would name their team as something to be fierce, strong, determined and dominating. They were giving it a "good" name to show strength and pride. No teams are named Seattle Wimps or Kansas City Scaredy Cats. Intent does matter at some point.
The Seattle Pimps does have a great ring . The catch phrase would be, "you don't want the back hand."***
Yeah, well explain a team named after Scarlett colored foot sleeves
It’s a pretty bad indication of how bad our football team is when this is the most fun I’ve had in a thread on Gameday Eve in a long time.
I remember they played the hell out of the Wonderboy music video in the Union on that college music video channel that was always on in there.Thats been on repeat in my head for the last 20 minutes.
...and now this took over.
It was all over the radio and TV back then. Maybe mtv2?...cant remember.
'Slice his throat and grab his scroat' was a commonly yelled out phrase when playing video games in college.
That song was many levels of awesome- made fun of that genre of rock while making a great song at the same time. Tough balance.
'Thats levitation, holmes!'
That’s telekinesis Kyle
I don’t know how I completely missed out on the Tenacious D thing especially early, but I had no idea that SVP catch phrase was based on a Jack Black lyric.
