Major League : Alternate ending

I just read that a 2007 Blu-ray of the movie showed an alternate ending in which Rachel Phelps was pretending to destroy the team in order to motivate them to win.
Does anyone know where to see this (without buying/renting the Blu-ray)? I saw that someone posted a YouTube link to it on here last year but it's private and not viewable.

I just spent an hour trying to find it online. I thought you could find anything on the internet these days.



Irritating Jerry since 1991.

It's on the DVD. I recommend not wasting your time watching it.

There's a scene where she's telling the manager she was behind the entire thing.

There's was no deal with Miami, she made it up must to motivate the players.

She had no budget, so she had to find cheap players. She scouted all those players and signed them, she even chose the manager, because she thought he would be good with a group of new players.

She tells him if she really wanted the team to lose, she could of just started trading players, but she never did.

To me this made a lot of sense. At the end, why wouldn't she be happy her team is winning and making the play offs? They've blown the chance to move to Miami. Now she might as well be happy they are winning a division.

Basically that is what the alternative ending (which was not an ending) was. The scene is on YouTube and actually I liked it.

Basically she says that the team was broke and they could not win with the players they had. So she "personally scouted" the players (except for Hayes who was a surprise). She realized they all had weaknesses that hid their true value. And she needed a manager who could get the team to play together, and she personally scouted him too.

That was actually in the original script. But it was a stupid twist so they cut it.

I disagree that it's a stupid twist. In fact it makes a lot more sense story-wise ultimately for someone to decide to play "bad cop" as a motivator than for an owner who is still hoping for a lost season with a playoffs on the line (forgetting all about the postseason revenue that's going to make the team a hot property, merchandising etc.) for the sake of a sale that is never going to happen if the team's turned it around that way. The problem was clearly that Whitton was too good as someone the audience loved to hate that they just didn't want to accept the twist even if made more sense from a storytelling standpoint.
