More notes from Miller Park 4/18

One more item of note from the game last night. Right before they announced the Pirates line-up they played the scene from Seinfeld where Jerry was supposed to wear the puffy shirt that Kramer's girlfriend had made.
"It's the nineties, you'll be the first pirate." - Kramer
"But I don't wanna be a Pirate." - Jerry
Great way to open the game. Whoever is in charge of playing clips from movies and TV shows should get a raise. They always do a good job.
Also one of my favorites has to be the scene from Animal House they play. Unfortunately that means we're down late in the game.

D-Day: War's over, man. Wormer dropped the big one.
Bluto: Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!
Otter: Germans?
Boon: Forget it, he's rolling.
Bluto: And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough...
[thinks hard]
Bluto: the tough get goin'! Who's with me? Let's go!
[runs out, alone; then returns]
Bluto: What the fuck happened to the Delta I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? "Ooh, we're afraid to go with you Bluto, we might get in trouble." Well just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I'm not gonna take this. Wormer, he's a dead man! Marmalard, dead! Niedermeyer...
Otter: Dead! Bluto's right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part.
Bluto: We're just the guys to do it.
D-Day: Let's do it.
Bluto: LET'S DO IT!
