Author Topic: Sports Coach films Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 09-16-2006 05:38 PM                     What's the deal with all these films about these sports coaches? Gridiron, Invincible (well not totally a coach film), Remember the Titans, the billy bob one, Glory Road, etc. It's getting as bad as all the remakes we're subjected to these days.  |  IP: Logged Aaron Mehocic Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 804 From: New Castle, PA, USA Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-16-2006 06:50 PM                     When I was in college studying to be a high school history teacher, people would ask me what sports I coached. When I told them "nothing", their response was simply "Well, how do expect to get a job?". Maybe I should have gone into coaching. Then there would be one more based-on-true-events, bullshit sports film to piss you off Mike.  |  IP: Logged Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 09-16-2006 06:57 PM                      |  IP: Logged Fred Georges Master Film Handler Posts: 257 From: Lombard, IL, USA Registered: Jun 2000 posted 09-17-2006 12:14 AM                     My all time favorite "Coach" film is "The Last Picture Show" In the movie the Coach lets His star player Boink His wife (Cloris Leachman). Now THATS Motivation!!  |  IP: Logged
