In the movie Oceans 13, the term "Billy Martin" is used by Danny Ocean to refer to a second chance. The term is gambling slang that refers to Billy Martin, a famous second baseman for and manager of the New York Yankees. Martin was fired (or quit) as the manager in 1978, rehired in 1980, and given a second chance. Martin was then fired and rehired by the Yankees numerous times over the course of the 1980s.
