Manly Movie Quotes

Best Ever = Joe Montana

“Montana finished his own sentences…” Thank goodness somebody in the national media isn’t drinking the ESPN kool-aid. Montana is the best ever. Period. Great article by Bill Bender of The Sporting News on Montana’s greatness.

1970 Chevelle SS

The year was 1970, gas cost about 35 cents a gallon, and the muscle car wars were peaking. Then, some frickin’ geniuses at GM decided to slam a 454 big block into these beautiful SS Chevelles. I’m sure they all sat around and let out a big Tim Taylor grunt thinking about all that horsepower.…
