 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?

Not to my knowledge. I've only every heard the piano version.
