Frank Sinatra: You bet I am. Next issue: this crap with M-TV. With the nudity and all. What is this crap? Sinbad O’Connor.

Sinead O’Connor: Well, I think it’s bloody awful. But it’s typical of entertainment in a male-dominated society.

Frank Sinatra: Boo-hoo! You had me, and then you lost me! Billy Idol.

Billy Idol: I think it’s great.

Frank Sinatra: Shut up! Luther Campbell.

Luther Campbell: Well, that’s my bread and butter, man.

Frank Sinatra: Once more around, pal. Sounds like pops and buzzes from here.

Luther Campbell: I said, that’s my bread and butter, man.
Frank Sinatra: No, you’re wrong, schoolboy. You don’t need to work blue! You’ll never play the big rooms with that crap. Ask Redd Foxx. You don’t need the blue stuff, kid, you got talent!

Luther Campbell: But I don’t have talent.

Frank Sinatra: You’ve got it, kid. You listen to me - you’ve got a Ben Vereen quality, I can’t put my finger on it. Take the high road, baby!

Luther Campbell: I swear, man, I don’t have any talent. None! This is all I got. [ to Billy Idol ] Tell him, man.

Billy Idol: Yeah, he sucks!

Sinead O’Connor: He’s not talented.

Frank Sinatra: No, Bob Goulet - that’s not talented! You got talent! You got a Dionne Warwick/Falana kind of thing going. Steve and Eydie?

Eydie Gorme: Oh, you’re right, Frank.

Steve Lawrence: Absolutely. He’s great!

Frank Sinatra: Of course he is, you brownnoses. Look at you, you’re just swimming in my wake.

Why does the old saying about the pot and kettle come to mind?

The ironic thing is their new coach, Al Golden, is/was just the man to clean up that cess-pool. If one man could change that horrible culture, it's Golden.

Classy move on Donna Shalala’s part not to mention an investigation that could result in the Death Penalty for the program.

I'd love to have been a fly on the wall when Coach Golden approached her on this.

If you haven’t seen “The U,” the documentary on UM football in the ‘80s and ‘90s, you really ought to. One of the single most entertaining things I have ever seen.

"Sine-aid O'Connor! I'm lookin' at you and thinkin' "Nine-ball in the side pocket!" "

Classic SNL.
