I added an entry into the Goofs section stating that, in regulation Little League play, the dimensions of the field are smaller than that of a regulation MLB field, and therefore they would not have played at Coors Field. Similarly, regulation LL games are 6 innings, yet everytime a scoreboard is shown, the teams are playing 9 innings. -- Ubergenius 13:02, 24 October 2006 (UTC) reply

I tried to add to the "goofs" section but it was promptly removed, probably due to my working or something. But it is worthy noting that as the South Park team progress in the finals they face teams who are better and better and throwing the games. This is impossible because obviously the teams that were the best at loosing would be able to get out of the championships faster and eventually only the teams who were the worst at losing would be left. Does this make sense? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 196.44.16.10 ( talk) 13:44, 7 September 2007 (UTC) reply

I'd say that the fact that Kenny's face is shown several times during the episode should be of some note. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.18.103.11 ( talk) 12:29, 13 November 2009 (UTC) reply

In the scene where Randy and Tom Nelson have a fight in the stadium and Randy is lying on the floor having those "dreams" (sorry, couldn't describe it). Is that a reference to Rocky with that guy in the first flashback and while Randy is on the floor, he reminds me of the Watership Down animated movie...forgot which scene. Anyway, should this be included?-- S kully Collins ^Edits 11:42, 31 January 2007 (UTC) reply

Again, if cited, return to the main article

• The song Randy trains to is " You're the Best" by Joe Esposito, which is the tournament montage song used in The Karate Kid. Randy can be heard singing the chorus of "I'm [You're] the best, around" when he is fighting Bat Dad. The song is at a much faster tempo in the episode, however.
• There are numerous references to the 1976 film, Rocky and its sequels including;
  • Randy telling his wife that he is afraid is very similar to the scene in Rocky III where Rocky tells Adrian his fear of facing Clubber, along with a similar scene in Rocky about the fight with Apollo. Also the preceding shot is an exact reproduction of the scene in the original film after he visits the ring before his fight with Apollo.
  • Bat Dad is a pastiche of Batman, Thunderlips, Big Van Vader, & Apollo Creed (two of the characters are from the Rocky movies). Bat Dad calls himself "the ultimate little league trash talking father," which is a parody of Thunderlips, who called himself "the ultimate male." Bat Dad then says "I want you Marsh! I want you!" Apollo Creed said the same thing to his opponents. Bat Dad also states that he "fears no man & feels no pain" this is one of Vader's favorite quote. He is also similar to Vader in the fact that he's a masked fat man from Denver, Colorado and he throws punches like the wrestler.
  • When Randy beats Bat Dad, the original score from the Rocky movies is used.
  • Randy is wearing a sweatsuit identical to the one Rocky wears in Rocky, Rocky II and Rocky Balboa.
  • Randy wakes up early wearing a hooded sweatshirt and sweatpants. He cracks open some eggs and pours them into a glass as if to drink them like Rocky Balboa did, but then he pours them in a frying pan to scramble them and drinks a beer instead. ( John Candy did this once in a Rocky parody Second City Television sketch.)
  • The last scene when Randy gets knocked down by Bat Dad, it is exactly the same as in Rocky V, even the ghost of Mickey appears and says "Get up Rock", except instead of saying afterward "Get up you son of a bitch, cause Mickey loves ya", Mick just says "Get up, ya bum!", after Randy gets back up he says the same line Rocky said in Rocky V after standing up to Tommy Gunn with 'Bat Dad' replacing 'Tommy' "Hey Bat Dad... I didn't hear no bell."

Otherwise it stays here. Alastairward ( talk) 11:45, 15 August 2008 (UTC) reply
