    True! Good point. But... we COULD be seeing reruns of CHEERS, and they choose to make this silly show about a dumb actor looking for a job from New York. :rolleyes: But NooOooooo... they let Matt LeDumb into a studio again... :mad:

    I'll be the first to admint that if Southern California did slide off into the Pacific Ocean that America in the long run would probably be better off.

    Remember in Independence Day the aliens took out Los Angeles, New York and Washington DC first. They might have been on to something.

    Was that him talking at the beginning of the story? He seemed kind of normal to me. I mean he wasn't like Rainman or Stro Swift or something...

    I think they should start with San Antonio, Dallas, and Detroit

    In the 90's it would have been Chicago, Seattle and Salt Lake City. :D

    If I remember correctly, HBO Real Sports did a story similar to this awhile back. It was just as riveting.

    The scoring part is great, but I also love the part about him being an team manager just to be closer to the game.

    Everytime an NBA player thinks about tanking a season due to injuries, contract disputes or ego problems, he should take a look at this video.

    Good Morning America just said that the kid's family has been contacted by over 25 production studios who want to make the story into a movie. :eek:

    Either way, sounds like a great movie. We need another "Rudy."

    I'd hate to be on the losing team that got spanked by the autistic team manager after the starters had already put the game out of reach.

    When the kid turns 18, some p*rn studio should hire him and release a movie called-- 4 Minutes of Bliss: The Jason McElwain Story.
