All Movie Team

Alright, the doldrums of the off-season are officially here. After reading this the other day from super Gator blogger, We Are The Boys, we realized that something must be done.

So coming next Monday, we will post the all-movie football team.

The task is simple: think of every football movie ever made and put together a team that would kick ass and take no prisoners (the mixed metaphor is clearly something every player on the team must do... much like Juwan Howard's legendary, "all that does is add fuel to the oven"...scroll to the middle of the article to see it).

Please leave your suggestions below; don't forget about the coach. (note: barring a persuasive argument, we have the QB position already filled).


Will Shane Falco be the guy under center? With legendary in-huddle speeches like, "Pain heals. Chicks dig scars. Glory... lasts forever," he stands a damn good chance.

I vote for the team that Texas State scrimmaged against in Unnecessary Roughness. Consider:

Dick Butkus
Earl Campbell
Roger Craig
Tony Dorsett
'Too Tall' Jones
Jim Kelly
Jerry Rice
Herschel Walker
Randy White

Kicker, also from that movie, Kathy Ireland. Or Gus, from the Disney film of the same name. Dick Butkus was also in that, as was Johnny U.

And, finally, the middle linebacker from The Program, just for his trash talking ability. (Paraphrasing) To one opposing tailback, "Hey, aren't you the guy that got my sister pregnant? Funny we don't see you around the way anymore."

Kenny:

I love the suggestions; however, players who " actually played " football will not be counted. Sorry.

By the way, I think Evander Holyfield played on that prision team too.

What about Jamie Foxx as Willie Beamen? He played like he was back in Dallas, back in the hood, when his Mama was calling him in for dinner. You know, go to the Buick, turn around.

Who wouldn't want a quarterback who knew Kung Fu?

We second Willie Beamen. He wore a speedo with bravado, which means he would be happy playing nearly naked...which describes last year's five month beatdown being Florida's qb perfectly.

Gotta go with the starting quaterback who led the West Canaan Coyotes to their 23rd Division Title. The one and only Johnny Moxon. It took balls for him to stand up to his overbearing father and state in a pathetic southern accent, "I don't want...your life." We can throw Billy-Bob on the O-line so we can run the "hook and ladder." As long as he doesn't start bleeding out of his ears.

I cant believe you would rather have Moxon than Lance Harbor. I mean the dude was preminiscient. He had dreams that foresaw victories.

what about Sin Bad on the D-Line or linebacker...

also, remember..."Don't throw it to Stone-Hands!"

The linebacker with a volcano of blood gushing from his mouth, would be good as long as the game isn't on the line...

And I don't remember the "Runt of the litters name" but he has to at least be on depth chart.

Jonathan Moxon from Varsity Blues should be the starting QB. Why? Two words: "Mox is a Fox". Actually that's more like 6 words but you get my point.
Saw this old old post after searching for a Coyotes T-shirt and had to let my voice be heard!
