11 Memorable 'The Sandlot' Quotes That'll Make You Miss Childhood

To me, there's no competition. Hands down, "The Sandlot" is the best movie of all time. Growing up, I had a VCR copy of "The Sandlot," and I watched it until I broke it. This movie is more quotable than "Mean Girls" and it's even funnier than "Anchorman." To this day, I still answer "The Sandlot" when asked what my favorite movie is. Come on, it's a classic.
