Wilson Quote #442

Quote from Wilson in Trouble-a-Bruin

Wilson: So, what did the doctor say about Brad's knee?
Jill: He said it's 85 percent healed. There's a chance he'll hurt it again.
Wilson: Oh. So, I take it he's not gonna play?
Jill: He wants to. Tim wants him to. I'm just worried about serious damage. Do you think I'm being over-protective? Am I crazy?
Wilson: Well, no, you're not crazy to worry about Brad's health, but, to an athlete, sports are a microcosm of life, a battle of wills, a test of strength and character. Proving yourself as a man. Go, Conquistadores! See, I was co-captain of my high school chess team.
Jill: Not too many people get hurt playing chess.
Wilson: Well, that's not necessarily true. See, I dozed off once waiting for my opponent's next move, and the next thing I knew, I was impaled by a queen.

Quote from Jill

Wilson: Jill, let me ask you something. Did you ever go against your parents' wishes and take a risk that involved physical danger?
Jill: Yeah, I did. I married Tim.

Quote from Tim

Tim: You know the important news? Bud has turned a good tool company into a fascist dictatorship.
Jill: So what, he's gonna declare war on Home Depot?
Tim: You know, this is serious. We're not allowed to use any tools on the set that don't have the Binford logo on them. And since Binford doesn't make any automotive tools, I can't do any car-related Tool Times.
Jill: That's ridiculous. I knew they were giving you problems down there. I didn't know they would go this far.
Tim: Oh, this is just the beginning. They start taking away your diagnostic equipment, the next thing you know your money looks different and you're waiting in line for vodka and toilet paper.

Quote from Tim

Dr. Hennessy: Well, look, Brad's knee should be around 85 percent by game time.
Tim: 85 percent! That's like a B-minus.
Brad: All right!
Jill: But 85 percent means that there's an increased chance that he'll get hurt.
Tim: Well, yeah... Yeah... But what if he only plays 85 percent of the time? That would eliminate the 15 percent chance of injury!
Brad: All right!
Jill: [to the puzzled Dr. Hennessy] Welcome to my world.
