Ralph Kramden, a NJ Nets fan? (Part 1) (The NJ Nets beat the Toronto Raptors 96-91.)

[Frank Gannucci]

(Ralph just watched the game with Ed.)

Ralph: "Boy, what a game Norton. Those Nets really put those Raptors in their place. How about the reception that Carter got? Every person in the building booed him mercillessly."

Ed: "Hey, especially since he used to play for the Raptors. During his last days as a Raptor, he said he purposely didn't play his best."

Ralph: "Well, even though I am a fan of him, I don't approve of that. Boy, I would love to have the Nets sweep the Raptors. How about you?"

Ed: "Naw. I rather see a seven-game series."

Ralph: "Why?"

Ed: "Because it's more exciting."

Ralph: "Yeah, but it also increses the chances of Toronto winning."

Ed: "I want it just for the TV network's sake. They need the ad revenue."

Ralph: "Norton, you are an idiot. Why would you want the TV station to get ad revenue when it won't affect you?"

Ed: "Just in case if one day I work at TNT."

Ralph: "The only TNT company you will ever work for is the TNT company that makes bombs."

Ed: "You mean in addditon to it be ing a TV network, it also owns a company that makes bombs?"

Ralph: "You are a mental case. Now, we have to root for the Nets on Monday."

Ed: "I can't see the game. I am working late. I can't even watch TV on the job. The tide may come in."

Ralph: "Well, I can. I am going to listen to the game on the bus. I just hope that no loser comes on the bus and denounces the Nets."

Ed: "Knowing your luck Ralph, they will."

Ralph (yells): "GET OUT! GEEEEEEEEEEET OUT!"

(Jackie Gleason comes on stage.)

Jackie: "Folks, I would like to thank Art Carney as well as the Mimai Beach audiences for being the BEST! Good night!
