Marshall Quote #908
Quote from Marshall in Tailgate
Future Ted: [v.o.] Kids, on New Year's Day 2012, Uncle Marshall took a trip to Minnesota to see someone he truly missed.
Marshall: Hey, Pop. I can't believe it's been a year. I think the most appropriate way to honor your memory today... is to get blasted and watch the Vikings make the Bears their furry little bitches. Go, Vikes!
Woman: [o.s.] Shh.
Marshall: Sorry for your loss. Which is what we'll be saying to the Bears in about three hours, right, Pop?
Future Ted: [v.o.] Kids, tailgating at the Vikings-Bears game was a tradition for Uncle Marshall and his dad.
[flashback to 1986:]
Marvin Sr.: And that's how the government covered up the UFO crash in Roswell: by canning the sliced up alien carcasses and calling it Spam. a.k.a Sliced Processed Alien Meat
Young Marshall: Wow. Is there anything you don't know, Dad?
Marvin Sr.: No. I know most stuff.
[present:]
Marshall: And in your honor: three decades of pork fat, lighter fluid and Bengay. Dear God, that's the stuff.

Quote from Marshall
Marshall: Lily, this is 200 pages of detailed accounts about Bigfoot, ghosts, aliens abducting people from their beds and probing them. I'm going to read it to Baby Eriksen at night-night.
Lily: You really want to read our kid bedtime stories about monsters?
Marshall: First of all, I wouldn't use the "M" word. Only they can call themselves that. And secondly, are you really saying you don't want to raise our child as a believer?
Lily: I don't want to brainwash our child to believe in something with no proof.
Marshall: It's not about proof; it's about faith. Faith is what gives life shape and meaning. I mean, if there aren't yetis or leprechauns, what's the point of even getting up in the morning?
Lily: I don't know. Wife, unborn child, drop a deuce?
Marshall: Lily, don't you think it's a bit narcissistic not to allow for something bigger than us out there? Something whose beauty and power and majesty humbles us?
Lily: God?
Marshall: Werewolves.
