Amanda Whurlitzer: Big wow! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coach Morris Buttermaker: [handing out cups and supporters to the boys] There is one thing I forgot to tell you guys.

It hurts!"] Coach Morris Buttermaker: What? What are you saying? Ogilvie: I've been brushing up on my Spanish of late, and I think he is saying something about, you know, his being Catholic, and it's a sin. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coach Morris Buttermaker: [handing out cups and supporters to the boys] There is one thing I forgot to tell you guys.
