Not in the TBS (or whatever basic cable station) version.

 

Yeah, I've seen the edited version many times. In fact, I got so pissed at the dinner party scene when he tells the guy to suck his dick I didn't know what to do. Right at the punchline, it went to a commercial. A freaking commercial. Whew! I'm feeling a little better now.

 

"And the Indians got no runs on let's see, one hit. That's all we got, one goddam hit?"

"You can't say goddam on the air!"

"Cross him off, then!"

Exec 2: "some of these guys never had a prime"

 

Lynn: What about the night you in Detroit with Miss Fuel Injection?

Jake: Well, what was I supposed to do? She bet me 50 bucks she had a better body than you, and I had to defend ..."

Lynn: Oh WHAT A BUNCH OF BULLSHIT! I have a much better body than she does!"
