Major League (1989)

Hell yeah

Did I imagine Dorn having a comical reaction to kissing his wife the morning after she banged Wild Thing? You know, insinuating she had something on her lips?

Athlete commercial acting today e.g. Curry & Subway… makes me wish i could pay the debt for anyone who went to school for acting. Curry has the charisma of a coat rack

I want to see the Venn diagram of King fans and Action Boyz fans. I absolutely eat up any SK bits they do. It’s so delightfully specific and spot on.

As a lifter, I was also impressed with the jock strap curls scene. I rewound it and he has 5s on there as well, so he is curling 145. Love you action boyz

One more post, Craig Kimbrel the closer for the Dodgers was having an awful season and recently switched his walkout song to ‘Let it Go’ from Frozen. Since then he has been dominant, and the crowd eats it up.

There’s a great anti-California songs song by the band Local H called “California Songs” that’s all about how we don’t need any more of them, and fuck New York too.

I feel like the epitome of lazy song choice to remind you where the movie takes place was when “California Love” fired up at the beginning of the movie that was already called “Battle LOS ANGELES”. Of course, it was filmed in Louisiana, but that’s beside the point.

You need to listen to the classic Norm MacDonald/Artie Lange story about Bob Uecker. The guy would call games just like in the movie and hit the cough button to say some hilariously horrible shit. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PE7l9-f18UM

Ben said it perfectly. This is a love letter to voodoo.

Great coincidence. I saw Mr Majestyk was streaming free this week. I’d never seen it so watched and re-listened to the episode (great ep, fun flick). In it the Boyz say how Bronson should have had a role as a baseball manager and then pointed out that he’s sort of like Lou Brown in Major League. Is Bronson basically a mashup of Lou Brown and Jake Taylor? Gammon’s grizzled, mustached, dried out attitude and face but Berenger’s athletic physique and insane tan he can pull off.

my fav major league memory is being obsessed with the TV edit of the big Corbin burnsen scene of him handing Sheen the baseball and the edit goes "strike that guyyyyyyyy out!"

Won’t get a chance to post this ever again so here’s the last world championship of my loser fandom as called by the great Vin Scully. https://youtu.be/jSrCgcb1Uyo

“Cunt to America” is my favorite karaoke song.

Mariners scrappy slap hitting outfielder Sam Haggerty has the Godfather theme as his walk up music. Pretty cool for a 23 year old or whatever.. I think my walk up music would be Hot Piss by The Yellow River Boys(Tim Heidecker)

I would pay for a tier that funded the boyz cabin rental to get more retreat eps

The 2008 Phillies had Chase Utley coming out to Cashmere and Pat Burrell the king of walk up music came out every at bat to Holy Diver by Dio

Great episode. I love when we get to hear stories of Stanger's dad. He seems like a character.

One more hour of work. All I have to do is not belt out "BIG CUNTS IN AMERICA, HOORAY!" and I'm home free.

Gaspard Ulliel also played a young Lecter in Hannibal Rising. Which is not good.

Was your loan application rejected by a banker in a sleeveless leather jacket? Recommend the podcast to them.

100% would watch Stanger Things.

Sportstember is when the Payne Stewart material comes out of the bag, baby.

Frank Thomas, of Nugenix fame, i met a few times (under a dozen) and shaking his hand was like grabbing an oven mitt with large bananas branching off of it. Like, unspeakably big and strong. Big guy!!

James Rhodes is an Air Force colonel and I hate myself a bit for knowing that.

I always thought it was really cool how Tom Berenger agreed to donate his skin to be made into baseball gloves for underprivileged kids when he dies.

Rene Russo’s license plate says “read” ya know because she’s a librarian who put together one of the best special collections in the country.

The slow burn of the drawn out cardboard titty reveal really affected young Janders.

I'm hungover today stole too much rum from Jobu

And the rapey "romance" angle. Jesus Christ I thought he was going to murder her.

I love you less

Thank you Action Boyz. I love you
