Cotton McKnight: It looks like the clock is about to strike midnight on this Cinderella story, turning Average Joe’s into the proverbial pumpkin.
Pepper Brooks: I sure do like pumpkins, Cotton.

Cotton McKnight: Ladies and gentlemen, prepare to witness the greatest happening in sport: sudden-death dodgeball.
Pepper Brooks: Pepper needs new shorts!

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week: Sports Announcer, suggested by @dproII. Today’s suggestion by David Proenza.

Trivia: Gary Cole and Jason Bateman had to keep redoing their voice recordings for the dodgeball matches because everyone kept changing stuff in the script during the shoots.

Dialogue On Dialogue: A special sub-type: The Sidekick Sports Announcer. When the play-by-play announcer plays it straight and the color man plays it for laughs.
