UC Radio announcer Chuck Machock got ejected right after Coach Huggins did.

A little paperwork in that crew's future?

Interesting Game.

Wait wait wait. You will need a heckuvalot more detail than that!

I saw Huggins get tossed - picked up two T's...he was very angry about the disparity in foul counts and foul shots...Turiauf (from Gonzaga) shot more free throws by himself (22 I think) than Cinci did as a team...but Gonzaga was pounding it inside and Cinci was shooting lots of 3's...did not see the radio guy get kicked - must have happened during a commercial... wish I had seen that!

SALT LAKE CITY - Cincinnati coach Bob Huggins was kicked out in the second half of the Bearcats' NCAA tournament opener against Gonzaga after drawing two technicals on a disputed call Thursday. The Bearcats went on to lose the game, 74-69.

Upset with a traveling call on Cincinnati's Jason Maxiell early in the second half, the volatile coach jumped in the air and landed with a two-footed stomp. That quickly got a technical from lead official Mike Kitts.

Huggins, who had a major heart attack in September, continued the tirade and after another minute was called for the second technical by Kitts, who pointed to the locker room tunnel after blowing the whistle.

So....

Apparently during the time out after or possibly during the 4 free throws, Machock was giving the crew or Kitts hell and he was tossed. Dan Hoard who does the play by play finished the radio broadcast on his own.

I am glad Kitts recovered from that 6 men on the court thing earlier in the season. Way to go Kittsy!

HEY! Would you please get out of my HEAD!!! You said the exact same thing I thought as I read the article above. Stop it! I'm serious. You're freakin' me out.

Chuck

Hey - you know those "Separated at Birth" things on the Late Show or Conan show or whichever one it was??? Maybe that's why Dan and Chuck keep doing this to each other...hmmmmm...Dan and Chuck - separated at birth???

Not unless one of 'em goes bald,grows about 2 feet and his IQ gets squared!

Not saying which one(but he is a BoSox fan). :D

More on the Tech's
 

According to Western Athletic Commissioner Karl Benson, who served as the NCAA Basketball Committee representative for this tournament site, Huggins received the first technical "for leaving the coaching box."

The second tech, Benson said, was called because "Huggins was refusing to leave the floor and was four steps onto the court. And he was continuing to question the call."

Huggins lingered on the court after he was ejected, prompting Peters and assistant coach Andy Kennedy to walk onto the court in an attempt to persuade him to leave.

Athletic director Bob Goin then escorted Huggins toward the locker room.

"That's just a reaction I have," Goin said. "If I see a little something that happens, my role as an athletic director is showing up. It sends a message. I don't have to say anything."

Goin said he didn't think the incident would damage the reputation of the university or program.

"I don't think there's anything drastically wrong," Goin said, "with a basketball coach getting two ... I mean, it's wrong and it's disappointing to me, but I don't think that has anything to do with the image or the integrity of the university because they may have been merited and they may not have been. That's a judgment call."

More on Machock
 

SALT LAKE CITY - No one is a more impassioned defender of University of Cincinnati coach Bob Huggins than Chuck Machock.

Machock, one of Huggins' closest friends, served as a volunteer coach during Huggins' first few years at UC and was Huggins' boss when Machock was the head coach at Central Florida.

They've known each other since Huggins played at West Virginia.

As the color commentator for UC's radio broadcasts on WLW-AM (700) for the past 10 years, Machock frequently has criticized officials both on the air and off from his seat along press row.

But Machock apparently crossed a line Thursday during UC's loss to Gonzaga in the first round of the West Regional at the Huntsman Center.

After Huggins was ejected from the game by official Mike Kitts, Machock also was asked to leave for comments he made to Kitts off the air. He was escorted out of the building.

"The official came to the (scorer's) table and asked that he be removed," tournament director Steve Pyne said. "He indicated there was some vulgar language directed at him."

Pyne then walked across the court and informed Machock that he would have to leave.

"He asked why," Pyne said. "I told him why, and he obviously denied it. We brought the official back to the table to make sure that's what he wanted to do, and he said he wanted to follow through with it."

Machock did not physically resist but did protest that he hadn't used profanity and sought the support of a nearby writer to verify that, which the reporter did.

But Machock still was asked to leave. Reached later at his hotel, Machock declined to give his side of the story.

"I want to talk to (UC athletics director) Bob Goin about the whole thing before I say anything," Machock said.

Goin was clearly unhappy with Machock's behavior.

"I'm more disturbed about that, quite frankly, than I am about the coach," Goin said. "I'm going to get the facts first. There will be no rush to judgment, but there will be a judgment."

Huggins said he didn't know the details of Machock's ejection. Told that the tournament director said Machock used vulgar language, Huggins said, "I can't believe Chuck used vulgar language."

Play-by-play man Dan Hoard, who has worked with Machock for the past two years, said he heard no profanity from Machock. Two reporters seated nearby said they heard Machock direct the term "S.O.B." at the official, and one observer said he heard Machock tell Kitts he was a terrible official.

"After Huggs got his technicals," Hoard said, "Chuck removed his headphones so that he couldn't be heard on the air and began yelling at Mike Kitts. He did not use any profanity but did say things along the lines of 'That was a terrible call.'

"Mike Kitts said, 'Keep it up and you're going to be watching the game from outside, too.' Then Mike Kitts went down to the baseline and Chuck kept it up a little bit. When there was a timeout called, Mike Kitts walked over to the official scorer's table and told security to kick Chuck out of the game."

Hoard acknowledged that this isn't the first time Machock has criticized officials from his seat on press row.

Directing such barbs at officials is considered unprofessional among media representatives, who are supposed to be unbiased observers.

It was within the official's purview to ask for Machock's removal.

"If in his judgment a person is exercising unsportsmanlike behavior, the official has the authority to have him removed," said Karl Benson of the NCAA Basketball Committee.

Even More on this Game
 

TECHNICAL DENIED: Huggins pleaded for a technical foul to be called against Gonzaga's Cory Violette near the end of the first half but was denied.

Gonzaga guard Winston Brooks threw what appeared to be a pass intended for Violette under the basket, but the ball went through the basket for a 3-pointer with 1:22 left in the half.

Violette then picked the ball up and dunked it.

"It was the judgment of the official that the Gonzaga player did not know the ball had gone in the basket," said Karl Benson, the NCAA Basketball Committee representative.

I hope that I am not the only one who is seriously disappointed that Mike Kitts is working the NCAA tournament. I believe that he should have lost the rest of his season schedule for the Georgetown-Seton Hall six men on the court screw-up. There must be some accountability for the officials too.

One mistake?
 

For one mistake? What about his partners. He was not the only one that messed up.

Peace

Jeff,

If I were the Big East assignor, he and his partners would be done for the season. This was not just one mistake, it was one HUGE mistake!

Expanded referee powers VERY useful!
 

I didn't know referees had ejection power extending off the court! All right way to go!

I've already put this principle to work in my off-court life. Yesterday I wore my shirt and whistle to my day job. Within the first hour I ejected my boss, two co-workers, a surly delivery boy and the guy from the mortgage company who phoned about this month's missed payment. (I had already ejected my wife and teenage son from breakfast at home that morning. My younger daughter made it long enough to finish her orange juice with only one T, however.)

This is gonna be swell! I'm on the way to DC to see what I can do about the mess there.

I wonder if Nevadaref is really a basketball referee with comments like this.

Yup, let's pull Kitts' entire schedule. Better yet, let's not ever let him officiate ever again.

His crew made a mistake. It was made public and apparently all the powers-to-be were satisfied that Kitts was of the caliber to not let such a mistake happen again.

And that's all that matters.

Rich

Amen!

I 2nd that Amen!

I guess that's just ONE reason why you're not the Big East assignor. Come to think of it, you're not even a Big East official for that matter, are you?

I guess every game you worked was perfect this year, eh? :rolleyes:

We should know better.
 

Tony,

I should know my place. I cannot comment on D1 Officials, I am not one and neither are you. We should just let the D1 Officials be critical of each other. Come to think of it, that is just about everyone here. http://www.stopstart.freeserve.co.uk/smilie/ignore.gif

Peace

We are human, and we make mistakes. If we do not make mistakes, we do not learn.

Kitts worked a second round game yesterday.

I hope we see him in New Orleans.

Rich

Let thee who has committed no error cast the first stone.

Come on people. One error should not define one's whole season.

If that was the case the tournament would have to be cancelled as there would be no refs "qualified " to be there.

Mistake was made, I bet it won't happen again in any of his games.

Great ref, get off his back. I believe he handled this sitch great.

Shows that he's not afraid to pull the trigger if needed.

Didn't Mike Kitts work the national championship last year (I believe Tony Green did also)? He must be doing something right...and if he happened to be on the baseline for the pass going in the hoop, then he must have been looking where he was supposed to be if he didn't see the ball go in the hoop.

I'm a couple of days late getting in on this one. I was staying with some friends that got me into officiating watching games and hanging out. We went to the Cincinnati website and found the game on their archives the next day. The announcer said something about knowing they were in trouble when the crew walked on to the floor. In the background you could faintly hear the NCAA officials telling him he was being removed for profane language. It was kind of interesting to listen to. I will say that we didn't hear any profanity, but the announcer was extrememly critical of the officials, even saying that he "told the audience at the beginning that the crew wasn't very good. We (there were 4 officials listening to it) felt that the second T on Huggins came a little quick considering the game situation.

I have held my tongue on this one because I am from Cincinnati and I am sure Kitts has forgotten more about officiating than I have even learned in my short career.

That said, IMHO, the push foul was missed and traveling was called. Bad call but every game, including even some of mine, has them :)

At that point, Coach Huggins was jumping and flapping his arms apparently attempting to defy gravity. Having watched a lot of their games, he gets a "little" excited. Next thing you know he's whacked twice and gone. We're talking 30 - 60 seconds max.

No Doubt the first T was earned. Doesnt anyone think the 2nd was too quick and probably wouldnt normally be called? I know it's not cool to talk about specific officials but I am curious to discuss the game management side on this so no offense intended to Mr. Kitts.

Things we don't know....

Does Kitts and Huggins have a history?

Did Huggins get in Kitts' ear in the first half?

Maybe Kitts is "By The Book" because of the 6 player deal.

Bottom line...better decision making and shot selection by UC in the last 5 minutes really made the difference in their loss and not the T's. Still, I wonder if he had it to do over again would Kitts slam the hammer again?

Larks
VIT

To start I did not see the game so I do not know if the second was too quick. But what I get, and correct me if I am wrong, is that he kept complaining.

Hello, the first T says you are out of line and you need to get control of yourself and SHUT UP. You lost the privilege to put forward your thoughts when you got a T. So if you keep it up, then you deserve what you get.

It seems that in basketball coaches get a T and it is OK to continue carping, complaining or having a temper tantrum. That to me is BS. They are suppose to be role models and beacons of the highest integrity and behaviour. The players demonstrate a lot more class than many coaches who stomp and storm on the sideline. NCAA needs to tell those babies to get a better grip on reality or they will be watching the game from the locker room. Sportsmanship takes priority over "game situation" in my HO. Mike Davis would have been gone the first instance he kept on crying after the first T. To he!! with let my partner give him the second one. give em an inch (2nd ref has to boot me) and they will take a mile (2nd ref is in another world so I can pretty much get away with anything short of profanity).

Officials need to do a better job of putting those jerks in their place a lot faster. That's my 2 cents.

I have held my tongue on this one because I am from Cincinnati .....
[/QUOTE]Did you use one hand,or did you need both?:D

Andy,I don't think that we'll ever know Kitts' thinking or rationale.We also don't know what instructions the crew got-r.e. maybe how their supervisor wanted the game handled.Obviously Huggins pushed the wrong buttons with him.Kitts is a fine official,and very experienced-and he's not noted for over-reacting as far as I know.We don't know Huggins' rationale for his behaviour,either.The only thing that really matters is that Kitts thought that Huggins' @ss shoulda been outa there-so it was!

Did you use one hand,or did you need both?:D

[/B][/QUOTE]


Hey man I am bilingual....so I used both! No wait....ambidexterous yeah...wait...Bidexterous? Ahh forget it.

No doubt Huggins pushes the envelope. He's missed several T's this season at least from my perspective. Good points on pre-game etc. I dont doubt Kitts is a good official and I'm not coming out against the 2nd T. It was an interesting game. High profile coach. Physical game. Quick Double T. Radio Announcer Ejection. Dunked ball after 3 point make. Lots of extras to think about. Game Management City.

BTW, the radio announcer definately deserved to be ejected (no matter what the comments are and whether they were on or off the air). I'm just shocked that game management didn't take care of the issue before the officials. (My school has nice little name cards we put down at everyone's chair, along with a little reminder that "cheerleading" from press row is prohibited under NCAA guidelines.)

JR, you really going for Mary Poppins there? "esspaly" isn't how I envision that word being spelled. Maybe you are making a subtle sub-reference? Or is this a case of "call the obvious"? :)

My understanding is Chuck Machock's father was a D-1 official for many years. So many of the officials have known Chuck for many years. And there is the usual conversations before games. With that said, Machock went over the line. This is nothing new for him. He is your typical color commentator/"Homer". The only people in Cincinnati that don't like Chuck are Xavier fans.

I think that Mr. Spelling Person above probably got the right spelling.He should!He's in about his eighth year of college,isn't he?

Let's try this one: scrumdidilyumptious!

Reference(Oompa,Oompa)?

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory...very strange movie...I heard a radio interview with the Cinci AD about the whole situation...his comments were: 1)Huggins deserved both T's - the first for the big jump/two-footed stomp, and the second because he was 4 to 5 feet out on the court and would not move back when asked several times...2)the radio guy lost his cool and needed to go also...3)the officials in Cinci's conference games do the schools and coaches a disservice by allowing that type of behavior during the season, even though it won't be tolerated during the tournament...I was liking what he had to say up until the last part - seemed like he was trying to find a "way out" for Huggins bad behavior...

He is your typical color commentator/"Homer". The only people in Cincinnati that don't like Chuck are Xavier fans. [/B][/QUOTE]

I'd say that is a fair comment. Chuck is definately Coach Huggins' biggest fan. I dont know why people expect that announcers that work for specific schools or specific professional teams aren't "homers". Of course they are. They all pull for their teams and their target audience are made up of that team's fan base. Kinda obvious to me. It's not like these guys work for CBS or ESPN.

This does not excuse him yelling at officials from press row. We have enough people yelling at us to have to worry about those guys too.

In the end....Huggins needed this season to be over. This had to be the toughest season coaching and personally for him ever. Secretely, I bet he's glad it's over.

I heard a radio interview with the Cinci AD about the whole situation...his comments were: 3)the officials in Cinci's conference games do the schools and coaches a disservice by allowing that type of behavior during the season, even though it won't be tolerated during the tournament. [/B][/QUOTE]I wonder if there's any truth to that statement. If there is,it's a shame- but I'm not really that surprised. I'm also wondering if,instead of blaming the officials,maybe he should be blaming the officials' supervisor- who is also usually getting direction from someone above in that conference anyway.

Btw,nice catch on Willie Wonka!

I didnt hear that interview but I did hear Goins say that he was not as concerend with Huggins' technicals because they were official's judgement calls as he was Machocks ejection. Chuck has a meeting with the Man coming up.

I would say it seemed as though there were a few games that officials could have whacked Huggins for the arm waving stomp / flight attempt this year and didnt. I doubt that those would have prevented what happened in the Zags game though. Huggs is Huggs.

I know we've had technical foul conversations in other posts but let me say this. I sense that if you do what you are supposed to do (IE See Kitts in the Zags game) you could negatively affect future opportunities. Example...there is a high school league in Cincinnati that gives the power to the coaches. You cant get in without a recommendation. You can get bumped out on one coach's no vote. Another example....In Ohio, post season officials are selected based on a vote system...by coaches.

I read on here everyone's relief that Mr. Kitt's 6-man game didnt cost him his schedule and I echo the sentiments that it was a mistake that a lot of people could have made. But, that expressed relief by all of you says something.

I'm not sure how the GCL works at the V level. At the JV level I knew the assignor and he gave me a shot. We'll see if that leads me into the V down the road.

No, I was speaking of a different league and I'll leave it at that except to say that it also starts with a "G"

I know that assignor and he's been good to me as well. Great guy. Many believe that doing the F and JV games for that league is as tough a doubleheader as there is. And I'd have to agree.

As for the other league, if a coach just doesn't like you, you're screwed. And some grudges can last a long time. The league is just hurting themselves.

You're gonna have to come up with something a little tougher than Willie Wonka or Mary Poppins. I got a 7 (and a half!!) year-old daughter at home. I once watched Mary Poppins every night for about 3 weeks straight! Not good times. . .

Oh yeah.....I've been told by plenty of folks that some of the JV games in the GCL are as tough as any V games in the city that night. Working the GCL has definately helped my game in other leagues.

So then you know the other "G"? I hear it's a good league to work in....just dont F up!

I have three sons at home, so I get the movies over and over also...so how about this one... "Oh, I do so relish these times of peril"...or "We need another plan. Preferably a Nick-less one"...

Yes, I know the other "G" league. I haven't done any for them. And it is a good league; this year the sectionals, they seemed to get the better of the GCL. But in the end, another State championship for a GCL South school. Congrats to Moe!

Machock apologizes for outburst
 

Machock apologizes for outburst


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chuck Machock

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By Jason Williams
Cincinnati Post staff reporter

Chuck Machock took the first step toward mending his reputation as the radio color analyst for the University of Cincinnati men's basketball team Monday.
He apologized.

Machock began head coach Bob Huggins' final weekly call-in radio show of the season by expressing his regret for being ejected during the second half of UC's loss to Gonzaga in an NCAA Tournament first-round game last Thursday in Salt Lake City.

"I want to make an apology to Bearcat Boosters, to the university and the athletic department and (athletic director) Bob Goin," Machock told the WLW-AM listening audience. "It wasn't called for. I shouldn't have done it. ... It's behind me. I'm going to be with you for a long, long time."

Machock also publicly apologized to Huggins, to whom Machock referred as a "blood brother," but did not apologize to the referee who ejected him.

Machock, a former UC volunteer assistant coach who has been a part of the Bearcats' radio broadcasts since the 1992-93 season, also informed the audience of a punishable agreement he and Goin reached while meeting last week.

Machock's talent fee from the Gonzaga game and from two games next season will be donated to C-Paws, an on-campus charitable organization.

"And he's never going to take his headset off again," Goin told The Post earlier Monday. "That's the agreement."

After speaking, Machock left the show to Huggins and host Andy Furman. Machock usually stays on the air for the duration of the hour-long show.

"He's the best," Huggins said of Machock.

Official Mike Kitts ejected Machock with 15:56 remaining in the game because he had pulled off his headphones to express his dismay with Kitts' decision to eject Huggins 21 game seconds earlier. NCAA officials and several people sitting around Machock said the radio analyst used profanity and called Kitts a derogatory name.

Machock has denied that and did not discuss specifics of the incident Monday.

Machock has a long-standing relationship with Huggins and UC, from which he graduated in 1959. Machock spent three seasons on Huggins' staff at UC before moving to his current position. Machock recruited Huggins to West Virginia in the 1970s, and they were together on the staffs at Ohio State (1978-80) and Central Florida (1983-84), where Machock was the head coach.

"I call that bold talk from a one-eyed fat man."

"Fill your hand you sonuva*****!"


(This is really too easy.)

I really hope that by "more tolerable" you mean for you and not for a child (unless he's 20 by now)! :eek: If that's children's material, I'm not getting the joke. . .

"I aim to kill you in one minute, Ned, or see you hang in Fort Smith at Judge Parker's convenience, which'll it be?"

Judge Smails: It's easy to grin / When your ship comes in / And you've got the stock market beat. / But the man worthwhile, / Is the man who can smile, / When his shorts aren't too tight in the seat.

TY WEBB: People don't say that about you...as far as you know

Don't get me wrong, I do not endorse profanity for children, but it is very common in our world and to totally shield them from it would be nearly impossible. Example:
Can anyone identify this movie quote?

"I'll slap a damn suit on you and take your whole farm."

Chorus: I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK
I work all night and I sleep all day

I cut down trees,I eat my lunch
I go to the lavatory
On Wednesdays,I go shopping
And have buttered scones for tea

I cut down trees,I skip and jump
I like to press wild flowers
I put on women's clothing
And hang around in bars

I cut down trees,I wear high heels
Suspenders and a bra
I wish I'd been a girlie
Just like my dear papa!


I know that Dan and Chuck sang along!

"You don't frighten us, English pig-dogs! -- Go and boil your bottoms, sons of a silly person. I blow my nose at you, so-called Arthur-king, you and all your silly English knnnniggets. Thppppt!. . . I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper! I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!"



Whats an elderberry?

Field of Dreams.

Answer: Isn't an elderberry purple and known to only grow on the westside of Cincinnati?

Bridgekeeper: Stop! What... is your name?
Galahad: Sir Galahad of Camelot.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?
Galahad: I seek the Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your favourite colour?
Galahad: Blue. No, yel... auuuuuuuugh!

Hey, is this Field of Dreams also???

Uhhhh....NO :) Monty Python's and the Holy Grail.

Wizards post on favorite color is also Holy Grail

JR's song about the transvestite lumberjack I believe is from Monty Python's Flying Circus.

How about These 2....
 

Captain: You run one time, you got yourself a set of chains. You run twice you got yourself two sets. You ain't gonna need no third set, 'cause you gonna get your mind right.

Captain: What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach, so you get what we had here last week which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it. And I don't like it any more than you men.

Re: How about These 2....
 

If you didn't know that this is "Cool Hand Luke" you'll to spend "a night in the box"!

Not the one we're looking for.

All this movie talk reminds me of a story. 10 year olds Tommy and Susie were watching a John Wayne flick when the Duke took the woman in his arms and said "I want what I want when I want it." and he always got it. This gave little Tommy ideas and he grabbed little Susie in his arms and said "I want what I want when I want it." Little Susie pushed him away and said "You'll get what I got when I get it." A dirty joke you can tell your mother. Jim

Not that anybody seems to care ;) but, my quotes were from "Inherit The Wind". This was the movie based on the "Scopes Monkey Trial". It starred Spencer Tracy, Fredric March, Gene Kelly, Harry Morgan, Claude Akins and Dick York.

Tracy played Henry Drummond, based on Clarence Darrow - March played Matthew Harrison Brady, based on William Jennings Bryan - York played Bertram Cates, based on the school teacher John Scopes and Gene Kelly played E.K. Hornbeck, based on newspaperman H.L. Mencken.

The movie (and the play it was derived from) was a fairly factual account of the trial in the 1920s in Dayton, TN (Hillsboro TN in the movie) in which a HS science teacher was arrested for violating a state law prohibiting the teaching of evolution.

Boy,

All these Caddyshack quotes on an Officials Forum and no.....

Ty to Carl standing in Carl's "living room" : "Can I get a ruling"???

Never saw the movie, sorry, but I was aware of the trial.

As an aside, I've officiated many games at Rhea Co. High School, which is in Dayton, TN! ;)

A really, really old berry. May be Rick or Jon. :D

Darn, I thought I had that one nailed! :) Anyway...here's one from one of my favorite tv shows when I was a young'un...

"Branded. Branded as a traitor man.
Branded. Branded as a traitor man.
To prove you're a man, you must live off the land,
When you're branded.
Branded as a traitor man."

Of course, as kids we had another version which used the word stranded and had to do with not having any toilet paper, but that's for another post...

One of my favorites.......
 

I love Bosco
It's made with TNT
Mommy puts it in my milk to try to poison me
But I fooled Mommy
I put it in her tea
Now there's no more Mommy
To try to poison me


Sick, huh?

It's your honor, Your Honor. :)

[B]Oh, this is the worst-looking hat I ever saw. What, when you buy a hat like this I bet you get a free bowl of soup, huh? Oh, it looks good on you though.

"Hey Whitey, where's your hat? I betcha a thousand bucks you slice into the rough."

"Gambling is illegal at Bushwood, and I never slice.
OH#%@**%!!!"

Ty Webb:

I was born to love you,

I was born to lick your face,

I was born to rub you,

But you were born to rub me first.

The above quote is from <i>The Wizard of Oz</i>. It happened when the mean old lady came to take poor Toto away to be destroyed. Don't worry, he got away.

Elderberry? the edible black or red berrylike drupe of any of a genus (Sambucus) of shrubs or trees of the honeysuckle family bearing flat clusters of small white or pink flowers.
Wine can be made from elderberries.

It happened when the mean old lady came to take poor Toto away to be destroyed. Don't worry, he got away. [/B][/QUOTE]Yeah,and don't think that that didn't piss me off! :mad:

It is hard for me to believe that word was used in that movie.

MISS GULCH
If you don't hand over that dog, I'll bring
a damage suit that'll take your whole farm!
There's a law protecting folks against dogs
that bite!

"Janie, make a note. We need to schedule more events where somebody gives me a really big fish."

Well, since Larks is using a Cheers quote, here's my favorite Normism. Norm walks in the bar. It's snowing outside.

Woody: Hey, Mr. Peterson. What's up?
Norm: My nipples, Woody. It's cold out there!

Still makes me laugh :)

Here's one....
 

Momma: Owen! Food!
Owen: In a minute, Momma.
Momma: Don't you "In a minute, Momma" me! Get off your fat little a$$ or I'll break it for you! I want two soft boiled eggs, white toast, and some of that grape jelly god damn it! And don't burn the toast!
Owen: Kill her, Larry.

And...

Momma: Who the Hell are you?
Larry Donner: I'm Owen's friend.
Momma: Owen doesn't have a friend.
Larry Donner: That's because he's shy.
Momma: No, he's not; he's fat and he's stupid.
