Ahh the olden days, before people realized that having the black kid on your sports team meant you were guaranteed a win.

Why do I get the feeling DG started subbing at FilmDrunk and writing these Scene Breakdown posts solely for the purpose of this one monumentally awesome endeavor?
I’d almost say he’s been planning it for years.

Velociraptor Guerrero-Peffercorn . . . with a handle like that, the kid is destined for greatness. Or porn. But porn greatness? I think that’s probably asking a little much.

@ Erswi – Planning it for years? No. I’ve been planning it forever. FOR-EVER.

Marley Shelton’s(Wendy Peppercorn) mom was a teacher at my elementary school. After the movie came out she visited our class, my life peaked that day.

One of the guys from the Dead Milkmen worked at the bookstore I went to as a kid.
That has nothing to do with this movie, but I felt left out with all the Sandlot meeting stories.

Anybody else just realizing Wendy Peffercorn was the blonde doctor chick from Grindhouse? Weird, huh?

I regret to inform you that I’ve never seen The Sandlot. I hope that little Velociraptor Guerro and my son Max Power can play someday.

I took a screenwriting class at UCLA extension taught by the asshole that wrote “Liar, Liar.” On the first day I mentioned something about The Sandlot and he said that he saw that movie but didn’t get the appeal. I dropped out shortly after…

FOR-EV-ER is one of the greatest, most useful movie quotes ever.

I continue to tell people “You (insert activity) like a girl!” well into my late 20s and while most of them don’t feel as insulted as expected, they really should.

I hope everyone realizes that at the :42 mark, Squintz throws his glove backwards and it hits Timmy. Used to crack up me up when I was younger, still does. I remember rewinding the VHS to see it over and over again.

How the rich douche leader didn’t go on to bigger and better things, I’ll never know.
Deux Deux Deux – SON OF A …!!!!!! I watched the video (even pausing at 1:49), read through the whole slide show, and then checked the comments for any Eli Manning reference. Dammit, you beat me to it. If that isn’t the mouth-breathing water-headed Eli Manning, I’ll eat my hat.

Bill Bilichick once secretly taped the closed practice of our high school football team, but he was later caught by our security guard hiding in the janitor’s closet wearing nothing but a well-stained Cleveland Browns hoodie.

That video game was likely RBI Baseball for NES. You could also bunt for a home run: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elV6TiKdKVA.
