Daily Dialogue — October 10, 2015

At the center of the ring before the 15th and final round of their championship rematch.

Apollo Creed: You’re going down.
Rocky Balboa: Nah. No way.

— Rocky II (1979), written by Sylvester Stallone

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week: Rivalry.

Trivia: Analysis by Philadelphia locals tracked the route Rocky took through the city during his training run when all the children ended up running with him. If he took this actual route from his South Philly house to the top of the Art Museum steps he would’ve run approximately 30.2 miles in one day — 4 miles more than a marathon.

Dialogue On Dialogue: A classic sports rivalry. Rocky, the irresistible force, proves too much for Apollo, the immovable object.
