Destroy the Myth
I was thinking about allegedly classic moments in television, film, and music. A long time ago I posted that "Freebird" was, aside from not being great, actually really bad. I also mentioned that Bob Hope was not funny.
I have an addition: that speech in Bull Durham where Kevin Costner lists all the things he likes is really, really terrible. Just awful, but everyone seems to like it.

Costner's speech is overated. But everything else his says in the movie, gold.
I agree on Freebird, oh sure you got the three guitar attack going, but there is a hell of a lot out there better.
That's the one where Costner says he likes Groucho and those fabulous apples by Cezanne... or is that Woody Allen's list in "Hannah and Her Sisters"?
The only thing worse than "Freebird": someone at a concert yelling out "Play Freebird!"
