    I used to get laid every time I pushed play on the VCR. I never gave it much thought, but I guess the girlfriend never wanted to sit through the movie.

    My most underrated line is when Haywood steps up to bat in the opener and asks Taylor, "what are you doing here?"
    Taylor: "Aw, I couldn't cut it in the Mexican league."

    Baravelli: [through speakeasy's door] Who are you?

    Professor Wagstaff: I'm fine, thanks, who are you?

    Baravelli: I'm fine too, but you can't come in unless you give the password.

    Professor Wagstaff: Well, what is the password?

    Baravelli: Aw, no. You gotta tell me. Hey, I tell what I do. I give you three guesses. It's the name of a fish.

    Professor Wagstaff: Is it Mary?

    Baravelli: Ha-ha. That's-a no fish.
    Professor Wagstaff: She isn't? Well, she drinks like one. Let me see: Is it sturgeon?

    Baravelli: Hey, you crazy. Sturgeon, he's a doctor cuts you open when-a you sick. Now I give you one more chance.

    Professor Wagstaff: I got it. Haddock.

    Baravelli: That's-a funny. I gotta haddock, too.

    Professor Wagstaff: What do you take for a haddock?

    Baravelli: Well-a, sometimes I take-a aspirin, sometimes I take-a Calamel.

    Professor Wagstaff: Say, I'd walk a mile for a Calamel.

    Baravelli: You mean chocolate calamel. I like that too, but you no guess it. Hey, what's-a matter, you no understand English? You can't come in here unless you say, "Swordfish." Now I'll give you one more guess.

    Professor Wagstaff: ...swordfish, swordfish... I think I got it. Is it "swordfish"?

    Baravelli: Hah. That's-a it. You guess it.

    Professor Wagstaff: Pretty good, eh?

    How Bull Durham isn't in this poll is beyond me.

    Among the choices it's Major League in a landslide.

    "This guy here is dead."
    "Cross him off the list then."

    Either he's dead or my watch has stopped.

    I didn't vote because I think Semi-Tough should be on the list. Great movie from the 70s.
