Major league 2 please. It's even funnier!
The reason the players wouldn't want to lose... Losing is horrendous for their futures... the veterans (the ones with fewer or no years left) lose out on possible business deals and poorer records assure they won't make the Hall of Fame... the younger players (especially Rick 'Wild Thing' Vaughn and Willie Mays Hays) lose negotiating power, miss out on sponsorships (the team got the American Express Commercial BECAUSE they turned the season around and were winning... losers don't get Credit Card Deals or any other deals... no one wants a loser selling their product, everyone wants a winner), possibly get sent to the minors to never return or worse get injuries which end their career for good, and being losers means they don't get the bonuses AND can't get better contracts in future years as well as everything the veterans have on their list. Rick Vaughn's value goes up for everyone he strikes out. Willie Mays Hayes' value goes up for every base he gets on, every base he steals, every fly ball he catches, AND every run he completes. Pedro Cerrano's value goes up for every base he gets on, everybody his hits get driven home, and every homerun he makes. BTW... Pedro Cerrano, played by Dennis Haysbert, you might recognize from bunches of Allstate Commercials that don't include Dean Winters as Mayhem..
Renee Russo was Thor's mom in the Marvel movies and Mel Gibson's love interest in the Lethal Weapon movies. Also, I remember seeing this again as an adult and being creeped out a bit by Jake basically stalking Renee Russo.
The next time there is a baseball poll, hopefully moneyball will be an option.
RIP Bob Uecker, AKA Harry Doyle
A little bummed Ash didn't recognize Dennis Haysbert at least for his voice being the voice of the Allstate commercials.
Atlanta! Will that mean at some over the next few months Ashleigh will react to "Gone with the Wind"?
I wonder how much Ashliegh knows about football. She's like James Cann in the past. What about "Brian's Song" She would certainly give us big tears.
I would prefer The Program.
Not recognizing Rene Russo? She is Thor's mama. Major League was her first film.
Ashleigh, and all other Patreon members, what are your thoughts regarding Tommy Lee Jones in Cobb? Do you think this would be a movie Ashliegh would be interested in? Or the very very very long documentary by Ken Burns BASEBALL...the complete history of the sport.
Such a fun movie. As kids it was so funny to us. To answer some questions, the little bag the pitchers use is a rosin bag. It’s a little canvas pouch with powdered sticky pine tree resin. It helps dry sweat and grip the ball. As a former softball catcher, it is hard on the knees with the constant up and down. We do hand gestures/signals to the pitcher to determine what pitch to throw. I would watch how the batter stands in the batters box, where her hands were in batting position and you just evaluate where and what kind of throw to pitch. Inside, outside, low or high. Pitchers will have different pitches like a rise ball, curve ball, change up, fastball, etc. With runners on base, we sometimes did do hand signals to the fielders so they’d know where I was going to throw the ball in a certain situation. Same with batting. The coach at 3rd base would go through a series of gestures and we knew if he wanted us to bunt, swing away or take the pitch. It’s how you communicate without the other team knowing what you’re going to do. So that stuff is very real. I have so many fond memories from my playing days. I miss it. Glad you enjoyed the movie!
