Thank you.

The boom in modern technology has
brought with it the demands for new

Equal rights has taken the forefront in
women's minds.

Women are demanding to have the same
rights and prerogatives as men.

Sexually, they've demanded equal time in
the bedroom and have come into their

own and have come and come and come.

Intellectually, on the campuses, they've
challenged the males.

and have made their own scores.

Economically, they've gone from being
broads to being on the board.

Politically, they've gone from the
kitchen to the convention, and even

physically. This last demand, they have
taken to the sports arena, a once

unchallenged domain of men.

Can men and women compete successfully
and still be happy together?

Come with us.

And get a first -hand view from the
lovely editor of Sports Life, Linda

Hamilton. Linda Hamilton is a woman who
indeed made it up the ladder through the

world of sports.

I'll be with you in just a minute.

Okay, now, Roger.

I don't want you to disappoint me.

Not if you ever want to get out of the
mail room.

You got that?

Okay.

Yes, Miss Hamilton.

Do it faster.

um

who's been such a good boy.

I'm going to give you a hand up and take
this part down.

Now, I don't want you to come up.

I don't want you to say anything else.

Yes, Miss Hamilton.

And this raise was so nice of you.

Miss Hamilton, I'm going to come soon.
Oh, take it out.

I didn't know you were going to come so
soon.

Hmm.

Roger,

why don't you take this to me, to the
mailroom for me, with this with you?

Miss Hamilton.

And practice your tongue strip.

Yes, Miss Hamilton.

I thank you for the raise.

You know, that boy is showing some
promise.

Oh, well, you're probably wondering how
a woman gets to the top in the so

-called men's world.

Well, it's not easy.

It started for me when my boss fired me
or was going to fire me.

It happened in this very office, as a
matter of fact.

Linda, come in my office, please.

Linda, please come into my office now.

Linda, you know that I like you as a
person, right?

Right? Yeah. And you know that I respect
your professional capabilities.

Well, this magazine, it's not working
out. The circulation is just going

straight down the drain.

Yeah. Derek, what are you trying to say?

I'm trying to say that I don't think
that next month I'm going to be able to

your check.

What am I supposed to do?

I just put a down payment on a car.

I know how you feel, Linda.

What am I going to do?

I've got mortgages on my car, my house.
Everything I own is mortgaged up to this

goddamn magazine, Linda.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Is there anything I can do to help?

Yeah, you could increase the
circulation.

I thought that's what I was doing.

Come on, Linda, this is no joke.

Well, no, it isn't. It's a lovely car.

Lindy, you don't seem to realize my
situation. I got four weeks and the

creditors are going to close this
magazine down around my ears.

Now, can we please start taking this
thing seriously?

Look, you are the one who has not been
serious.

What are you talking about?

Well, every idea that I've come up with,
you've put aside.

The only reason I'm here is because,
well, you know,

I could save this magazine.

I would love to believe that, Linda.

Really? Yeah. You really? Yeah, and I
would love to believe that you could

me.

Okay.

I want 50 % of the magazine and an equal
part in the sale.

That's ridiculous.

Way too much.

To save your magazine?

You could save my magazine, huh?

If you could save my magazine, and you'd
have to prove it to me, I'll give you

25%.

Smell the curtains.

Don't make me forget all my problems,
stupid man.

Yeah.

And I want an editor's ship. And my own
car.

And an office.

My own office.

And my own personal assistant.

And I want it all.

to lose Derek nor my job.

And I thought that this was an
opportunity to advance my career.

Unfortunately, I didn't have any ideas.

I needed an angle.

I did some of my best thinking while I
was jogging.

Hi. My name is Larry.

Nice day for jogging, isn't it?

Uh -huh.

I haven't seen you around here before.

That's right.

You're sure a real conversationalist.

Let's keep it that way.

Gee, I'm awfully sorry, miss.

I know you won't believe me, but I
didn't mean anything.

Are you all right?

Oh,

you

stand right.

There. Just relax, Larry.

I'm going to set your car.

The cars are coming. And then, it's all
right.

Just ignore it.

You see?

That we can do.

Oh, my God.

Nobody will believe this.

Incredible.

Nobody will believe this.

Do you do it in the rain much?

on like that before.

I knew I was into something, but I
wasn't sure as to how it could work for

magazine.

When a student is as good as the
instructor, it's time for the instructor

leave.

Hey, Linda.

Where have you been? It's good to see
you.

Hey, I've been meaning to call you, but
something keeps coming up every time.

Hey, listen, I'll take a quick shower
and then we can go get something to eat.

Okay, I'll be right back.

Here we go. Hey, hey.

in that shower.

Yeah?

That guy really gave you a workout,
didn't he? Yeah, that's my instructor.

I really finished him off good today.

Yeah.

Hey, one thing's gone.

That sounds good.

I haven't had a milk in a while.

Great. Come on, I'll show you where it
is. Okay.

You know, I've never heard you being so
competitive.

Yeah, men have to be put in their places
or they'll just run right over you. I

think so.

What have you been up to lately?

I've been waiting for a magazine.

That sounds exciting.

Let's talk about it.

Would you mind rubbing my back? No, not
at all.

What kind of stuff are you writing?

I have been writing articles on male
sports heroes.

That sounds pretty dull.

Yeah, I know.

I was thinking about writing about
women.

that job that you were so crazy about.

Oh, that asshole.

I fucking got tired of him. I will never
get into a relationship like that

again.

You know, Linda, you're looking
incredibly beautiful.

I love you.

Don't get upset, but you know I'm just
not into you.

You know, I didn't think I was into it.

I hope the janitors

Someone come here and sit on my face.

Ask and ye shall receive.

Are you getting lonely down there?

We didn't forget about you.

This is all right. This is all right.

Whoa!

Whoa!

but time is money. Don't forget.

It was getting closer and closer to that
final day and Derek had already given

up.

When I saw him next, he was packing.

I knew it would be hard to change his
mind, but I had to try.

Derek?

Women in sports.

Look, there's a tremendous readership
out there of women who are looking for a

magazine that'll give an impartial view
of mixed competition.

Aren't you forgetting something?

Huh? Huh.

Sports Life is a man's magazine.

Well, that's just it. You see, we get
all the women's readership, too.

Yeah, but men aren't interested in
women's athletics.

It'll be men and women competing
equally.

That's ridiculous. Men aren't going to
be interested in women's athletics.

Look, it's men and women competing
equally.

That's ridiculous, Linda.

You said you'd give me a chance.

Yeah, I said I'd give you a chance. But
if this is the best you can come up

with, then we'd better think of
something else.

Well, there's always our old standby,
but I don't think that it's going to

us anywhere this time.

Oh, where are you going?

I have another assignment.

Well, you can't spare a couple minutes
for...

A partner, all of a sudden?

Now look who's not being serious.

I have never been more serious.

Now I really had to think of something
to spark fails.

I had heard of men and women competing
in the martial arts, and I decided to

check that out.

Don't do that.

Oh, fuck my ass, dude. This is time.

Oh, yeah.

Wow.

Thank you.

to think of another sport to demonstrate
women's prowess against men.

I couldn't think of anything. My mind
drew a blank.

Then I remembered a story a friend had
told me about a swimming party that she

had had at her house.

That's ridiculous.

What? It says here that lady golfers on
the PGA want to make as much money as

the men are making.

Now that really is ridiculous.

Everyone knows that women are inferior
physically to men.

I agree. They lack the stamina. They
can't keep up with the men.

Next thing you know, some chick is going
to want to try to play for the New York

Yankees. You've got to call them persons
nowadays. Chick persons.

Ah, fuck them.

Chick is a chick.

I can't believe this weather.

Looks like it might rain.

I hope not, God. We've been working all
week. This is our first day, huh?

Yeah. Well, enjoy it.

Jesus, it's raining.

I can't believe it. The first weekend we
get out of here and we get weather like

this. Hey, we're going swimming, right?
You're going to get wet anyway. Just

forget the rain.

I guess so.

You look great.

You like him?

Yeah, I do.

I bet he would like you, too.

You know, John, your old lady is really
pretty.

That is a great bathing suit she has on.

Yeah, she does look good today.

Yours is pretty hot looking, too, you
know? Yeah, she'll put a tilt in your

kilt.

Look at those guys.

They're just being macho creeps. I can't
believe it.

Let's teach them a lesson. All right.

You guys want to get wet?

Hey, hey, baby, come on. What are you
doing?

It's too cold to fool around. No, it's
too cold to fool around. Let's go

Oh, come on, you guys. You're a little
wet. You want to go in.

It's cold out here.

What kind of human are you?

Oh, talking trash, huh? Well, yeah.

What makes you Sheba Queen of the
jungle?

Hey, man, we are tough.

We could whip your ass in this pool with
our legs tied together.

Oh, you want to race, huh, me and you?

Sure. All right.

Yeah, and if we win, you have to do
anything that we want. All right, great.

Okay, and if we win, you do what we
want. Oh, no, we're not that. You and

right? All right, I'll get you, honey.
Come on. Let's go. Come on, Mark. Yeah.

Do your stuff. Do your stuff.

You're going to be, now just relax.
Towel, towel.

Just relax. Really?

Wait, you just... Take it easy. Get
loose. Get loose.

We'll get it. Forget it, you guys. It's
freezing.

Oh, you want to call it off? No.

Are you sure now? No. No, no problem.

You feel okay? You ready? We got it.
We're fine.

We're fine.

Ready?

No, no.

Okay, wait.

On your mark.

Set.

I want you to eat us.

Where? Right here. In the water?

Yep, yeah.

We're going to drown.

Are we trying to chicken out again?

No, no. We made the agreement.

We'll keep it. Drop your drawer,
sweetie.

All right.

All the clothes off. Oh, boy.

Can't wait to see this one.

It's going to be fun.

What a way to go.

Even with this round.

Ah.

Ah.

I ain't losing to you.

Well, the magazine

circulation was really picking up now,
but we were still in a hole, and our

creditors were breathing down our necks.

We had two weeks to either clear out our
offices or clear out our debts.

Derek invited me on a farewell voyage on
his boat.

I knew what he meant.

Do you like my bikini?

What did I say?

That you like it.

Well, now I do.

Grab the wheel.

Okay.

I'm coming.

I'm coming.

Jesus, I sure will catch you.

Huh.

Mmm. Mmm.

Uh -oh.

Fuck me.

Fuck me.

Fuck me.

I did

it.

I did it.

oh

The circulation was really improving.

We were even starting to get ads from
women's products.

It began to look like we were going to
make it.

Funny things started happening to me,
though.

I was beginning to get excited by the
stories I was writing.

I remember these two pool hall hustlers.

Not bad.

Yeah.

Hey, Harold, see those two chicks over
there?

What do you think?

Stick to pretty hot, that's what I
think.

What do you say we offer them a little
game of pool? Nah, they'll think we're

too good for them.

Tell you, Harold, there's only one way
to find out.

Well, hello, ladies.

Hello. Here for a friendly game of pool?

Oh, we're just beginners.

Yeah, well, maybe we can give you a
couple of pointers.

Should we?

Oh, God.

They thought that they were going to
take advantage of our two little

Not knowing, of course, that they were.
Let's let them win the first two games.

World champs.

Hey, you guys are pretty good for
beginners.

How about a nickel a ball?

All right, a nickel a ball.

The poor saps.

Next thing they knew.

Thanks for the game, guys.

Hey, wait a minute. You've got to let us
recover our losses.

How about a dollar a ball?

Hmm, I don't know.

Got to think about that one. Oh, come
on. Let us win some money back, huh?

Hmm. Hmm.

Okay. Let's make it worthwhile.

20 bucks a ball.

Are you out of your mind?

You know, that works out to be about 300
bucks worth.

Yeah, we know.

I don't believe it.

Why don't you get us into it? This is
absurd.

I'm not going to pay rent next month.

You'll have to hit the streets, kid.

I'll have to hit more now. I'll start
hitting at you.

We've just been had.

Yeah, it wasn't necessarily my idea
either, turkey.

Come on. Well, then you're always
getting us in these jams. What about

poker game we got into last night? Oh,
you called the fuck out.

Listen, you guys. Come on down.

You laughed, but you didn't lose
everything, really.

Well, what do you have in mind?

Ah, wonderful.

Ah, that's good.

Ah.

Oh, good.

Oh, that's it.

And that's how I became editor of
Sportsline.

Derek was such a sweetheart.

He threw a big party to celebrate our
marriage and my becoming editor. He

invited everyone.

To top it off, he even invited some
studs, which were his present to me,

with an extra special gift.

Look at you looking at me

Everywhere.

It's so big.
