Keanu Reeves best movie QB?

Route 9 : 1/16/2021 11:29 pm
Yeah. I think so.

I should've watched the Replacements over that boring game.
They needed Falco off the bench tonight

Johnny Utah was All-Pro before the knee injury, but our fictional heroes fake squandered so many chances.

We were robbed of Lance Harbor.

Shame Paul Blake’s father passed away.

How about Charlton Heston (minus the Tablets and Staff) in Number One? Understand that he had several ribs broken when a particular tackle did not look "realistic" enough and had to be re-shot. Think that at least the story line was poignant and the final scene inspired by the famous photo of the great YA kneeling, dazed and bleeding, after a sack in Pittsburgh.

I will always remember certain scenes in movies that crack me up like when I was a kid watching Home Alone 2 and watching the Sticky Bandits getting hit with the bricks. In The Replacements it was when Shane Falco shows up at the bar and it starts getting all romantic and then out of nowhere Madden and Summerall start doing the play by play. I lost it. Hahahahaha.

and they get so much football wrong. For example, it always burns me that they call a timeout after recovering the kickoff. No need on the change of possession. Just one example. But, yet, I will still watch it when I see it.

So, my vote for Reeves is Falco over Utah.

For all movies, I'm having a tough time. But, my mind quickly went to Mac Davis in North Dallas Forty.

Another honorable mention would be Ronnie Bass in Remember the Titans.

She was fucking hot. God damn. I remember she was on that one show after WWF Monday Night Raw in the late 90s. I think it was called The Net.

movie maybe for Latimer, but Tombstone Packer was the best defensive player in a TV series or movie and 2nd place isn't really that close.
