"Good," he said, turning to face the reporters encircling him. "You guys wait till [expletive] happens, then you can talk [expletive]. Two [expletive] games, and already you [expletives] are going crazy.
"What's up with that, man? [Expletive]. [Expletive] 160 games left. That's a [expletive]. One of you [expletives] got to go ahead and hit for me."

I'm reminded of the notable Wire scene
but I can’t tell if he’s mixing-and-matching or if it’s all the same bad word. It could be 4/4, 8/0, or 0/8
I can't wait to see Treme on Sunday.
I can’t see David Simon, Clarke Peters and Wendell Pierce working together and producing something bad.
just watched that episode again yesterday
I hated that scene the first time (my #1 criticism of The Wire, like most HBO shows, was the overuse of expletives. It seems like the writers and actors just love being able to do it so much that they go overboard with it), but now I love it.
2009 Did Not Happen
If you watched the commentary
I believe David Simon said that scene was born out of a conversation he had with Ed Burns (a former detective) that the language of cops will one day reach a point where they will communicate using the word “fuck.”
Oooh, I want to play this game

#7 also confused me.
My guess was “motherfucker.”

Is #7shitload?
That’s my guess.
If there's ever a riot at Citi Field and Oliver Perez was the starter, I started the riot.
I'd go with F-wad for #7
but maybe that’s just me
That's possible too.
I just prefer shitload as opposed to fuckwad.
If there's ever a riot at Citi Field and Oliver Perez was the starter, I started the riot.
Yeah, I'm going with motherfucker for #7 on second thought
Living in Boston and watching a lot of Ortiz interviews, he’s just like the bit from the Bernie Mac routine about using motherfucker as a noun, verb, adjective, etc

Peaceful
Anyone ever see “The Big Lebowski” on commercial tee-vee? In one scene, The Dude is upset about things and expresses his hatred of a band. Instead of it being “And I hate the fucking Eagles” the tee-vee gives you “I hate the peaceful Eagles!” That kills me.
So Ima guess what Ortiz meant to say was: "You guys wait till FLIP happens, then you can talk FLIP. Two MOTHER-FATHER games, and already you ASSHOLES are going crazy.
“What’s up with that, man? GOLLY. DING-DONG 160 games left. That’s a WHOLE BUNCH . One of you GOAT-FUCKERS got to go ahead and hit for me.”

Die Hard With A Vengeance
Watching on network teevee one time they bleeped “motherf*cker” as “melon farmer”. My all-time favorite.

Snakes on a Plane FTW
The teevee edit changed “I’ve had it with these motherf*cking snakes on this motherf*cking plane!” to “I’ve had it with these monkey-fighting snakes on this Monday to Friday plane!”

Scarface is my benchmark
Esp. in the beginning when hes in customs, the officer asks him where he got his scar “from eating p***y?” The edited version states “where’d you get the scar form eating pineapple?” I love how edited version makes more sense than the original.
The Sopranos had some fairly comical edits.

In Die Harder on TBS
They said “Yippee Kie Yay, Mr. Falcon.”

I suppose this discussion gives me an excuse
to post this.
Omar & Jerry are conspiring to drive me to drink. That, or they're just honestly totally incompetent.

My favorite:
Blazing Saddles. The scene where Gene Wilder’s telling the story about getting shot by the kid. The original line is “That little bastard shot me in the ass.” TV edits it to “That little PUNK shot me in the YOU-KNOW,” with two different voices doing the dubbing for the different words. It’s awesome.
Perhaps today IS a good day to die.
