    The book makes Nick Saban seem like the smoothest motherfucker on two legs, which may actually be true.
    He walked into the Touhy family's house to recruit Oher and complimented the window treatments. Is there a better way to endear oneself to a nouveau riche woman from the South? Slick Nick, I say.

    But in this version of The Blind Side, if Michael gets lower than a 55 on his exams, Dennis Hopper blows him up.

    @ScientificMapp: I saw this in a movie about a bus that had to speed around the city, keeping its speed over fifty. And if its speed dropped, the bus would explode! I think it was called "The Bus that Couldn't Slow Down."

    Damn you, Hollywood. Damn you all to Hell. That book was an analysis of the left tackle position, and you had to screw it up with all that touchy-feely crap.

    especially with baseball films having virtually no appeal outside of the U.S.


    that large thud you just heard was Bud Selig falling out of his casket.

    The project was also doomed by Soderbergh's new working title: "The Giambi Experience."

    I think the part where the A's won back-to-back World Series may have doomed the project.

    It's Hatteberg who looks like a prisoner at Auschwitz...


    This may be the funniest line I have ever read in a script, ever. I'm giggling like a little kid at my desk.


    It has everything: it barely makes sense, is ethnically insensitive, and paradoxically, is probably funnier to both people who have or haven't read Moneyball and follow baseball.
