Haven't seen this movie since I was 5 years old...


and I CRINGED AT IT!

As a kid, I just saw other kids playing baseball but make no mistake about it...this movie is NOT for children.

The kid tanner actually says 'all we've got on this team is a bunch of jews, spics, *beep* pansies and a boogie eating moron'.

Tell me what sensors would allow this language to be uttered by anyone - let alone a child - in today's society without getting the company which released the film shut down?

This movie is indeed a time capsule. I still love it, even more than when I was ten.
