Peak monologue on baseball but I find it perplexing that a radical black activist as his character was & especially in the time period would be so nostalgic for the game. People who are so wired to see the world like that tend to not show much love for things Americana too fondly.
See the black activists who love baseball.

I played baseball as a kid and have never heard this phrase ever.

I lost my dad in June of this year.
I'm not sure I could ever watch this movie again now.

Feel bad for people that think it’s a baseball movie.

Meh. The dumb one-liner isn’t near enough to overshadow James Earl Jones epic monologue about baseball. So. frick you.
Chill dude. I never said JEJ monologue was bad. The movie is just overrated, I'm not the the first person to think that.
And it's the only movie ever to have an "iconic line" that is literally the dumbest line in the entire movie.
