Vinny Gambini -
Vinny Gambini: Look, maybe I could have stopped laughing at the Oilers okay? I admit it. But what's most important is taking a hard look at them. I could do it. I really could. Let me tell you how, okay? Kevin Lowe's got to build a team. Building a team is like building a house. Each player is just another building block. He wants to make a brick bunker of a team. He wants to use serious, solid-looking bricks, like, like these, right?
[puts his hand on the wall]
Bill: Right.
Vinny Gambini: Let me show you something.
[he holds up a playing card, with the face toward Billy]
Vinny Gambini: He's going to show you the bricks. He'll show you they got offensive talent. He'll show you how they toe drag like no one else. He'll show them to you that they are special, so that they appear to have everything a brick should have. But there's one thing he's not gonna show you.
[turns the card, so that its edge is toward Billy]
Vinny Gambini: When you look at the bricks from the right angle, they're as thin as this playing card. His whole rebuild is an illusion, a magic trick. It has to be an illusion, 'cause they suck. Nobody - I mean nobody - pulls the wool over the eyes of a Gambini, especially this one.
