I love this movie and try to watch it every spring. Greatest sports
movie ever.

 

Tanner Boyle: All we got on this team are a buncha Jews,
spics, niggers, pansies, and a booger-eatin' moron!

 

Ogilvie: Tanner, I think you need to be reminded from
time to time that you are one of the few people on this
team who is not a Jew, spic, nigger, pansy or a
booger-eating moron. So you'd better cool it or we may
be disposed to beat the crap out of you.

 

Corrupted my childhood. What movie is it?

 

I don't know but it sounds like bad news.

 

I cheated, and peaked, but it turns out that I had guessed the right movie.

 

I suspect you have too.

 

Ian  (FTR, I have never seen this movie. I also have never seen "The
Exorcist" - that movie is much higher on my "Must See" list than Adam's
entry!!  :p  )

 
Then you've never heard this?

I suppose it's possible someone never heard it but I would be
surprised if someone over 40 never heard that at some point. Even if
only a small segment.

Strangely enough, the song is called Tubular Bells but it's played on the
piano doubled with glockenspiel, not on, you know, tubular bells as one might
expect.

That's not the arrangement used in the movie, though. Aren't there
tubular bells on the movie soundtrack?
