    So, which is the better Costner sports movie monologue, Crash Davis on what he believes or Roy McAvoy on the golf swing?

    God, I love SportsJournalists.com. The minute I found this board, I knew I was done with bar girls, strippers and motorcycle chicks. (Sadly.)

    This guy doesn't see what the big deal is. He usually lets his defensemen take the penalty shots though...

    Rene Russo was easily the best part of the film. And Don Johnson was put in a tailor-made role and knocked it out of the park.

    Even Youngblood had to wear his helmet for his penalty shot.

    A shot which, by the way, was a goal as soon as the puck crossed the plane of the goal line, regardless of where the puck actually came to rest......fail on the dramatic slo-mo.

    The 18th was what.........550 yards.......and Daly supposedly laid up?

    Really?

    550 is Driver, 6 iron for 70 percent of tour pros.
     

  8. That's the part that really gets me.
    I was practically hollering at my wife last night. This is such bullshit. There is a no way a 3-wood shot does that. NO Way.

    Got to give a shout out to Dead Solid Perfect. Dan Jenkins co-wrote the thing for HBO in the late 1980s. Randy Quaid is pretty damn good in it and there is even a guy playing a sportscaster who goes by the name Keith Olbermann.
    And Peter Jacobsen, the golfer, is in it.

    Actually, both were his best moments in each movie. The rest of each flick, not so much.

    I think I've still got a VHS copy of that somewhere. Jenkins has a pretty good cameo.

    Tin Cup monologue by far. The one in Bull Durham always seemed forced. Whereas I fully believe that Roy McAvoy would wax poetic about a golf swing for hours.
