After bopping around all day and keep happening across txgrneyes and her tag line that quotes Crash Davis from Bull Durham it got me to thinking again...what an erotic mainstream movie Bull Durham was and how all of us have things we believe in... I imagine there are those that have never seen the likes of Crash Davis and Annie Savoy tangle across the kitchen table or heard Crashes most eloquent speech that made women's hearts flutter and say, "I want you" ... shoo, why can't more men be like that.

It's my contention that there are many men out there like that and that they can be found lurking here at pixies. But I don't want to limit it to just men, I think women need to clear their throats and let men know what they believe too!

Here's the infamous speech that made women swoon...

Well, I believe in the soul, the cock, the pussy, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve, and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days. ~ Crash Davis (Kevin Costner) in Bull Durham

So with tonight being the cusp of the baseball season I thought this query was most fitting.

Tell us... what do you believe in?

I believe that telling the truth is the best policy. That being kind to people is very important. I believe in treating every day like it could be your last. I believe that good hard work has its own rewards. I believe that you trust your own instincts and that you put family first -- before anyone else (including yourself). I also believe you can have friends who are close enough that they truly are family.

I believe that you can love more than one person in this life -- often at the same time -- and that those loves make you a stronger better person. I believe that there is always time for that kind of love, and there's nothing stonger or more pure in the world.

I believe in the truth as well. I also believe in not sugar-coating the truth (don't tell me you are having trouble losing weight while eating cheesecake, just say you like cheesecake and you want to eat it). I believe in humor all good things can come. I believe in not taking anything too seriously, for you will eventually be disappointed. I do not believe that love conquers all and all you need is love. (When the basement floods and you have to call the insurance adjuster and things suck, sometimes, "but I love you" doesn't get it done, a mop does.) I believe in the silent majority surprising people who think they know better. I believe in feeling sorry for yourself for only a few days, then it's time to pull it together. I believe in statistics (as much as I hate it, the Yankees over 162 games will win more than say the Royals). I believe that being consistently late for events is not fashionable, it is just plain rude. I believe romance is many things that have nothing to do with roses, beaches, silk, chocolates, wine and candles. I believe that guy relationships are just fine not being too deep. I believe in spelling correctly. I believe in meat, Tabasco, sports, beer, martinis and cigars. I believe in craning my neck like a teenage boy when there are naked tits in the area.
Finally, I believe in making that stroking motion with your hand and rolling your eyes when someone tries to tell you what you should think.

that when you love someone actions speak louder than words.
that when you hate someone words speak louder than actions.

being untrustworthy is the worst character trait.
being trustworthy is the highest compliment.

you can be honest without being brutal.
you can be a successful liar but eventually your lies will cause someone pain.

sex should never be seen as a chore.
sex should be an experience not a goal to be accomplished.

life should be lived like you are dying.
dying should be a by-product of life.

children should be seen and heard.
parents should be held accountable and responsible for the children they create.

no one can tell me how to think, feel, or vote unless I let them.
no one should tell me how to think, feel, or vote unless they are my momma.

mommas are wise but not always in the ways you need them to be.
daddies are strong but not always in the ways that count.
mommas are strong in ways that often amaze us.
daddies are wise in ways that often amuse us.

people who need to make others feel bad to feel good are sad.
people who make others feel good just because are life savers.

slut gut is not cute.
wearing clothes that are too tight just make ya look fat not phat.

people are still more powerful than government.
people are often complacent until it's too late.

in underdogs.
in underwear.
