A classic, in my estimation. An underappreciated movie from about 1979, starring Nick Nolte and Mac Davis, among others. It shows the ugly side of professional sports, and football, in particular.
If they still had that film at Hollywood Video, I would rent it.
: Best football movie ever made?
: (and, I know it's tempting to count The Last Boy Scout just because Billy Blanks goes on an 80-yard killing spree down the left sideline, then offs himself in the end zone...but resist the urge.)
