"This is outrageous! I demand to have it! Right here, right now!"

"There will be a winning team and a losing team. Are you OK with that?"

"I wanted to be a baseball player 'til I found out they send you to the showers."

JOIN THE BOY SCOUTS HERE!, ''Trustworthy, friendly, loyal, helpful, kind, courteous, brave, thrifty, obedient and cheerful' -- This is going to look GREAT on my resume!'

"Gracie, I'm proud of you. Your team lost, but you tried your best and that's all that counts."

'I can just see him twenty years down the road pitching for the Giants.'

'Nice level swing, Billy. Just meet the ball. Don't try to kill it, Billy.'

"Coach said I can be catcher if I gain 30 pounds."

'Kid, go out there and play like you're worth 29 million plus signing bonus, buyouts, and endorsement deals. '

'It's really your fault for not keeping your window open.'

"What's more important to my success as a child, Dad - improving my batting skills or your dumb ol' window?"

'I'm holding out for a $1 million signing bonus, plus product endorsement perks.'

Mickey's on fire at the moment.

"Coach says I'll never make it to the majors. My spitting and scratching need a lot of work."
