Crash: I'm too old for this shit. Why the hell am I back in A ball? Skip: 'Cause of Ebby Calvin LaLoosh. Big club's got a hundred grand in him. Larry: He's got a million dollar arm, and a five cent head. Skip: Had a gun on him tonight. The last five pitched he threw were faster that the first five, He has the best young arm I've seen in 30 years. You've been around. You're smart, professional. We want you to mature the kid. We want you to room with him on the road, stay on his case all year. He could go all the way. Crash: Where can I go? Skip: You can keep going to the ballpark, and keep getting paid to do it. Beats the hell out of working at Sears. Larry: Sears sucks, Crash. I worked there once, sold old lady Kenmore. Nasty. Nasty business. Skip: And who cares if it's the Carolina League. It's a chance to play every day. Crash: You don't want a ballplayer; you want a stable pony. Skip: Nah. Crash: Well, my triple-A contract gets bought out so I can hold some flavor-of-the-month's dick in the bus leagues, is that it? Well, fuck this fucking game! [pause] I quit, all right? I fucking quit. [Crash exits the office and stands in the clubhouse for a minute before sticking his head back through the door] Crash: Who we play tomorrow? Skip: Winston-Salem. Batting practice at 11:30. – Bull Durham Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
Reporter: So, how does it feel to get your first professional win? Nuke: It feels out there, I mean it's a major rush.

[Nuke throws the ball and misses Crash by several feet, breaking a window] Crash: Ball four. Nuke: Who the fuck are you, man?!

Skip: Lollygaggers! What's our record, Larry? Larry: 8-16. Skip: 8-16...How did we ever win eight? Larry: It's a miracle. Skip: It's a miracle.

Crash: Relax, all right? Don't try to strike everybody out. Strikeouts are boring! Besides that, they're fascist. Throw some ground balls - it's more democratic. Nuke: [to himself] What's this guy know about pitching? If he's so good how come he's been in the minors for the last ten years? If he's so good how come Annie wants me instead of him? Crash: [turns back] Oh, hey, and another thing, Meat. You don't know shit, all right? If you wanna make it to the bigs, you'll listen to me. Annie only wants you so she can boss you around, got it? So relax! Let's have some fun out here! This game's fun, OK? Fun goddamnit. And don't hold the ball so hard, OK? It's an egg. Hold it like an egg. Nuke: [to himself again] What's he know about fun? I'm young. I know about fun. An old man. He don't know nothin' about fun. Crash: [behind the plate again] All right. Nobody's goin' out there. [Crash calls for a curve ball] Nuke: [to himself] Why's he calling for a curve ball? I want to bring heat. Shake him off. Throw what you want. [Crash gives Nuke the sign for the pitch, Nuke shakes his head again.] Crash: Timeout. [Walks to the mound] Hey! Why are you shaking me off? Huh? Nuke: I want to bring the heater. Announce my presence with authority. Crash: To announce your what? Nuke: Announce my presence with authority! Crash: To announce your fucking presence with authority?! This guy's a first-ball, fastball hitter, he's looking for the heat. Nuke: So what? He ain't seen my heat. Crash: All right, Meat. Give him your heat. [He walks back to his place behind the plate.] Nuke: Why's he always calling me Meat? I'm the guy driving a Porsche. Crash: [to the batter at the plate] Fastball. [Nuke throws it and the batter hits a home run. The batter stands there, watching.] Crash: What are you doin'? Huh? What are you doing standing here? I gave you a gift. You stand here showing up my pitcher? Run, dummy! – Bull Durham Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
Crash: Well, he really hit the shit outta that one, didn't he? [laughs] Nuke: [softly, infuriated] I held it like an egg. Crash: Yeah, and he scrambled the son of a bitch. Look at that, he hit the fucking bull! Guy gets a free steak! [laughs] You having fun yet? Nuke: Oh, yeah. Havin' a blast. Crash: Good. Nuke: God, that sucker teed off on that like he knew I was gonna throw a fastball! Crash: He did know. Nuke: How? Crash: I told him. – Bull Durham Movie Quote	added 5 years ago

Crash: You got a gift. When you were a baby, the Gods reached down and turned your right arm into a thunderbolt. You got a Hall-of-Fame arm, but you're pissing it away. Nuke: I ain't pissing nothing away. I got a Porsche already; a 911 with a quadrophonic Blaupunkt. Crash: Christ, you don't need a quadrophonic Blaupunkt! What you need is a curveball! In the Show, everyone can hit a fastball. Nuke: Well, how would you know? YOU been in the majors? Pft! Crash: ...Yeah, I've been in the majors. [Players mutter in surprise] Player: You were in the Show, man? Crash: Yeah, I was in the Show. I was in the Show for 21 days once. The twenty-one greatest days of my life. You know, you never handle your luggage in the Show? Somebody else carries your bags, it's great. You hit white balls for batting practice. Ballparks are like cathedrals. The hotels all have room service. The women all have long legs and brains. Player: They're really hot, huh? Crash: And so are the pitchers. They throw ungodly breaking stuff in the Show. Exploding sliders. [To LaLoosh] You could be one of those guys. Nuke could be one of those guys. But you don't give a fuck, Meat. – Bull Durham Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
Nuke: I love winning, I fucking love winning! You know what I'm saying? It's, like, better than losing? Teach me something new, man, I need to learn. Teach me something. Crash: Well, you got something to write with? Good, it's time to work on your interviews. Nuke: My interviews? What do I gotta do? Crash: You're gonna have to learn your cliches. You're gonna have to study them, you're gonna have to learn them, you're gonna have to know them. They're your friends. Write this down: "We gotta play 'em one day at a time." Nuke: [writing] "Got to play..." Pretty boring. Crash: Of course it's boring, that's the point. Write it down. Nuke: "One...day...at a time." Crash: Alright, "I'm just happy to be here, hope I can help the ball club." [Nuke looks at him] I know, WRITE IT DOWN. – Bull Durham Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
Radio announcer: I've never seen Crash so angry, and frankly, sports fans, he used a certain word that's a no-no with umpires. [Annie turns off the radio] Millie: Crash must've called the guy a "cocksucker". Annie: God, he's so romantic. – Bull Durham Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
Annie: I think probably with my love of four-legged creatures and hooves and everything, that in another lifetime I was probably Catherine the Great, or Francis of Assisi. I'm not sure which one. What do you think? Crash: How come in former lifetimes, everybody is someone famous? [Annie and Crash pause, then both laugh] Crash: [still laughing] I mean, how come nobody ever says they were Joe Schmo? Annie: Because it doesn't work that way, you fool! – Bull Durham Movie Quote	added 5 years ago

Captain Bennett: He let the killers in himself? Well ah, why would he do a thing like that? Bullitt: I'm waiting to ask him. Captain Bennett: What about the setup? What do you think about that? Bullitt: Shotgun and a backup man. Professionals. Captain Bennett: Yep. – Bullitt Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
Chalmers: Now what went wrong lieutenant? Bullitt: Who else knew where he was? Chalmers: [irritated] What? Bullitt: Who else knew where he was? Chalmers: What are you implying? Bullitt: Well, they knew where to look for him and used your name to get in. Chalmers: Are you suggesting I disclosed his whereabouts? Bullitt: Somebody did. And it didn't come from us. Chalmers: That's hardly the issue. Bullitt: Well, it certainly is. I, I've got an officer with a family. And he's shot up pretty bad. Chalmers: Em'em, and I've got a witness that can't talk. Bullitt: I want to know about Ross. What is the deal you had with him? Chalmers: Deal? Lieutenant don't try to evade the responsibility. In your "parlance", you blew it. You knew the significance of his testimony, yet you failed to take adequate measures to protect him. So to you it was a job, no more. Were it more, and you'd the dedication I was lead to believe. Bullitt: You believe what you want. You work your side of the street, and I'll work mine. Chalmers: Lieutenant I shall personally officiate at your public crucifixion, if Ross doesn’t recover during the course of the hearings so I can at least present his deposition. And I assure you I shall not suffer the consequence of your incompetence. And even if there wasn’t any, I’m rather certain I can prove negligence on your part. – Bullitt Movie Quote	added 5 years ago

Bullitt: [picking up a copy of the fingerprint check proving the man's identity] He was the man who was shot at the Hotel Daniels. You sent us to guard the wrong man, Mr. Chalmers. – Bullitt Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
Chalmers: He's still my witness. I'll be delighted to let you have him after he testifies tomorrow. [pause] Chalmers: The organization..., several murders, could do us both a great deal of good. Bullitt: Look Chalmers, let's understand each other... I don't like you. Chalmers: Oh come on now, don't be naive lieutenant. We both know how careers are made.

Get the hell out of here, now. – Bullitt Movie Quote	added 5 years ago

Harry: [Leading Linda downstairs] Yeah, I tell ya. I saw an ad for this in a gentlemen's magazine. Twelve hundred bucks, TWELVE HUNDRED BUCKS.
