Bull Durham – Bring the Heat, Meat

The movie Bull Durham is about man’s relationship with God.  Baseball is the backdrop and Susan Sarandon is the window dressing.

All the talk about breathing through your eyelids is the comic relief and the mumbo-jumbo you need to channel your disbelief.

God is the Catcher and You’re the Meat.

We work best when we just shut up and throw what we’re told.

Sometimes you need to throw a curve ball when you really want to bring the heat.

Ebby Calvin “Nuke” LaLoosh (Tim Robbins) wants to announce his presence with authority, but using force at the wrong time and for the wrong reasons is always just an announcement of stupidity.  

Our Catcher will tell you when to strike and when to rest, when to dance and when to run.  Listen closely, and every day is a sunny one in The Show.
