    Somewhat interesting, the writer who got the movie started got on the radar with a script called Bag Man about college football. Was very paint by numbers and not as compelling as even The Program or Blue Chips but appreciated the subject matter. I still think a movie or series about the Marcus Dupree recruitment or just about college football recruiting that includes no actual football would be super compelling.

    The Marcus Dupree saga would be very interesting. Even today, watching that guy's film makes your jaw drop. What a talent.

    Dickerson was had for 25k and a Trans Am.

    Worth it

    They did a 30 for 30 on Dupree and one on the Pony Excess - the Eric Dickerson story

    30 for 30 is the best thing ESPN ever did. Especially the early years

    Both of those are awesome, and each gives a nice peek into recruiting at southern or -ish programs at that time. There were so many middlemen it was ridiculous. You needed a guy like Switzer back then to be able to navigate it. Regular coaches got rolled.

    Thought about watching on Prime but passed. I’m not a fan of either Matty Damon or Jennifer’s husband.

    Maybe they’ll make a straight to digital version with Larry the cable guy and dean cain you can watch
    So the same way you catch your gay porn.

    Cool.

    Affleck was the bomb in Phantoms though.

    Is there an author that's been done dirtier by Hollywood than Dean Koontz? Grew up reading all of his books, and there are many that would make great scripts, but the ones that geat made are always shit tier pedestrian efforts.

    Affleck in the Accountant was by far his best effort

    And his big role in Dazed and Confused

    Other than that he can't act

    The fact Affleck is in Air is reason #1 why I won't watch it

    It was pretty mediocre. How good can a commercial be?
