Default Double Down Trent
I watched Swingers last nite and figured out why you named yourself that. Vince Vaughn so funny. I've seen the movie before, but i didn't catch the name.

Vince Vaughn's character in that movie is one of the best characters in movie history! Jon Favreau's character actually says the line that gives DDT his name:

"This is Trent...we call him Double Down."

One of the best movies ever...

"Ladies, don't you always double down on 11?"

"Always"

Couldn't agree more, Not Mike. That movie single-handedly started the swing craze of the mid-to-late 90s (at the end when Jon Favreau and Heather Graham are dancing).

Other classic lines from that movie:

(1) "Baby, you are so money, and you don't even know it!"

(2) "Vegas, baby!!!!! VEGAS!!!!!!!!!"

(3) "This place is dead anyway!"

Also, check out Bill Simmons (the Sports Guy writer for ESPN www.sportsguy.net for his columns on that movie - truly classic)!

Man, we used to watch that movie almost every week before we went out to the bars... it's just so true... "this place is dead anyway", yeah that line still comes out every so often....

Some of my other faves:

"And I'm supposed to be excited because she's wearing a backpack."

"Like f'n House of Pain was going to do anything!"

"Daddy's gonna get us the Rain Man Suite."

Love the NHL Hockey scene.... love the diner scene ("Our little Mikey's all grownsed up")... love the scene when T gets wasted and is calling out Sue in the booth ("no, I'm sure that you've never mentioned her")... and I loved Heather Graham after that movie.

Trent: "You're doing what you want to do! What the hell is she doing?"

Mike: "Sells scrapmetal."

Trent: "And this guy she's seeing..What does he do?"

Mike: "I heard he drives a carriage around Central Park."

Trent: "Jesus Mikey! You're the fun loving party and you're sweating some lawn jockey?"
