Every Which Way But Loose


Slothrop: He doesn't get the girl, he throws the fight. But he has an ape. This is a real man; no renaissance scholar is he for he knows how utterly frivolous all of it is. You know who else is a real man? Frank Sobotka for putting Griffey into his line-up when Junior hit his 600th career home-run. He is only the fourth non-steroid player in the history--like, all of it--of the game to do this. And when not busy reading some MLA guide to Pedantry, what is Ass-Head doing? Starting Milton Bradley (!) in his outfield. That's right. Slothrop is Every Which Way But Loose, and he ain't got no girl and he ain't got no dissertation and he knows it's better not to win a fight when you can have an ape named Clyde instead. So just remember to ask yourself, when Ass-Head retorts with his sophistry and his deceit, who's got the ape and Griffey, and who's nothin' but the long done legend of Tank Murdock.

Smart Boris: Preach, brother! And see above regarding other real men.
