Quotes

You must be the short depressed kid we ordered.
- Tripper
Attention. Here's an update on tonight's dinner. It was veal. I repeat, veal. The winner of tonight's mystery meat contest is Jeffrey Corbin who guessed "some kind of beef."
- Tripper
And even if we win, if we win, HAH! Even if we play so far above our heads that our noses bleed for a week to ten days; even if God in Heaven above points his hand at our side of the field; even if every man woman and child joined hands together and prayed for us to win, it just wouldn't matter because all the really good looking girls would still go out with the guys from Mohawk because they've got all the money! It just doesn't matter if we win or if we lose. IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER!
- Tripper
IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER! IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER...
- Rest of group
Alright, virgins to the left, non-virgins to the right.
- Tripper
You guys split 'em up however you want.
- Tripper
Hardware.
- Crockett
Yeah, Crockett?
- Hardware
You're a dick.
