Poll - Closed Door Meeting

If Bochy doesn't know what to say to the team before Game 3, perhaps he can draw upon one of these movie quotes to help inspire them:

KNUTE ROCKNE ALL AMERICAN

Knute Rockne: Now I'm going to tell you something I've kept to myself for years. None of you ever knew George Gipp. He was long before your time, but you all know what a tradition he is at Notre Dame. And the last thing he said to me, "Rock," he said, "sometime when the team is up against it and the breaks are beating the boys, tell them to go out there with all they've got and win just one for the Gipper. I don't know where I'll be then, Rock," he said, "but I'll know about it and I'll be happy."

ANIMAL HOUSE

Bluto: Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!
Otter: Germans?
Boon: Forget it, he's rolling.
Bluto: And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough...
[thinks hard]
Bluto: the tough get goin'! Who's with me? Let's go!
[runs out, alone; then returns]
Bluto: What the fuck happened to the Delta I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? "Ooh, we're afraid to go with you Bluto, we might get in trouble." Well just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I'm not gonna take this. Wormer, he's a dead man! Marmalard, dead! Niedermeyer...
Otter: Dead! Bluto's right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part.
Bluto: We're just the guys to do it.
D-Day: Let's do it.
Bluto: LET'S DO IT!

THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION

Andy Dufresne: There are places in this world that aren't made out of stone, and that there's something inside that they can't get to ,and that they can't touch. It's yours.
Red: What're you talking about?
Andy Dufresne: Hope.

DODGEBALL: A TRUE UNDERDOG STORY

Patches O'Houlihan: It's like watching a bunch of retards trying to hump a doorknob out there.

THE KARATE KID

Mr. Miyagi: Wax on... wax off. Wax on... wax off.

Weird Al's UHF

UHF:

Stanley Spadowski: Life is like a mop. Sometimes life gets full of dirt and crud and hairballs and things and you gotta clean it out. You gotta stick it in here and rinse it off and start all over again. And sometimes life sticks to the floor so much that a mop, a mop, it's not good enough. You gotta get down there with like a toothbrush, you know, and you gotta really scrub 'cause you gotta get it off. But if that doesn't work, you can't give up. You gotta stand right up. You gotta run to a window and say, "These floors are dirty as hell, and I'm not gonna take it any more."

Or, since Gipper might ring home...

STEVE GARVEY ALL-STAR

Bochy: Now I'm going to tell you something I've kept to myself for years. None of you ever knew Steve Garvey. He was long before your time, but you all know what a tradition he is with the Padres. And the last thing he said to me, "Boch," he said, "sometime when the team is up against it and the breaks are beating the boys, tell them to go out there with all they've got and win just one for the iron-man womanizer with the forearms of Popeye. I don't know where I'll be then, Boch," he said, "but I'll know about it and I'll be happy."
