The Cut-man Cometh

[Texanne]

Before beginning real work, every man should take mild doses of physic to work on the bowels.

 

[Drew Shirley]

There's a joke in there somewhere, but I couldn't get the bat off my shoulder.

 

[Texanne]

After working, a boxer should strip naked in a room free of drafts and have men rub him briskly with Turkish towels to quicken the blood flow and harden the skin.

When it comes to the sweet science I'm
not much on predictions, Casey, but I
will say this: One of these fighters
is gonna win this bout tonight and the
other will almost surely not.

 

[Creed]

Who knows more about boxing than us?

 

[toucan82]

A jabbing left hook... that he threw with his right hand?

 

[Texanne]

Bally's ... where the breakfast buffet is $3.99, the slots are loose, and the showgirls are fa-a-a-antastic!

Casey!

No, I've been there, he's right.

Isaac--

ISAAC

I would, Dana. I'd like to be called
The Hammer. You know why I'm not?

DANA

You can't give yourself a nickname?

ISAAC

You can't give yourself a nickname.

DANA

Okay--

ISAAC

Also, that one's taken.

That's right.

You could be another tool, Isaac.

ISAAC

Like what?

NATALIE

Phillips head screwdriver.

ISAAC

I don't know.

NATALIE

Pliers?

 

[Creed]

Haha, I don't like to correct you on your own show Casey, but there's fifty-two states, with Alaska and Rhode Island.

 

[Texanne]

Just a stone's throw from where a new Miss America was crowned not long ago ... Miss Rochester, I think.

 

[toucan82]

I'm not calling him Cutman

 

[Drew Shirley]

He was a cutman for Rocky Marciano.

And I made sweet love to Ava Gardner in France.

You know, that kinda ruins Ava Gardner for me.
