(L-R) Rip Torn, Stephen Root, Vince Vaughn, Alan Tudyk, Joel Moore, Chris Williams and Justin Long in a scene from the motion picture Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story. --- DATE TAKEN: Rec'd 06/04  By Tracy Bennett   20th Century Fox        HO      - handout   ORG XMIT: ZX21382



It's been 10 years (OK, we're rounding up: 9 years, 364 days) since the world was blessed with the Vince Vaughn/Ben Stiller comedy Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story.

We may not have all known it at the time -- USA TODAY gave it a less-than-stellar 2.5-star review for its June 18, 2004 release -- but over the past decade, it's become somewhat of a classic comedy. Because it's hilarious.

Today, we salute the Average Joes with some of the movie's best quotes:

 "If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball."


- Patches O'Houlihan





"Remember the 5 D's of dodgeball: Dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge."


- Patches O'Houlihan





"L for 'love.' Good times."


- Gordon





"Thank you, Chuck Norris."


- Peter LaFleur





"Nobody makes me bleed my own blood. Nobody!"


- White Goodman





"Well, I guess if a person never quit when the going got tough, they wouldn't have anything to regret for the rest of their life. But good luck to you, Peter. I'm sure this decision won't haunt you forever."


- Lance Armstrong (This pivotal scene is kind of awkward now...)



"I just threw up in my mouth a little bit."


- Kate Veatch





"Ouchtown, population: You, bro!"


Pepper Brooks





"Oh, I don't think I'm a lot dumber than you think that I thought that I thought I was once."


- White Goodman





"We ARE the Globo Gym Purple Cobras ... and we will, we will, rock you!"


- White Goodman
