- "In my never ending quest to rid married men across Canada of the dreaded honey do list, I have made an important amendment to my "transition time" Constitution. After talking to my buddy Mike, who is a hard working police officer, I realized that I needed to tweak the rules a bit. From this time forward, any police officer, firefighter, any other emergency worker or any member of the armed forces should be allowed to extend their "transition time" an extra five minutes over any civilian." |

Hey Jim,
What is the best sports movie of all-time not named Slap Shot? I'd go with Friday Night Lights, which I might add is quite possibly the best show on TV. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it.
Answer:
Dave from the trailer, I love the name. This is so tough because I love so many sports movies. For baseball, you can't go wrong with "The Natural" and "Bull Durham." Honourable mention goes to Robert DeNiro in "Bang the Drum Slowly." For basketball, it's "Hoosiers." I am a huge fan of "Remember the Titans" and "North Dallas Forty," but my all-time favourite football movie is "Rudy." "Tin Cup" would have been a better golf movie if it wasn't for all that relationship nonsense in it. "Raging Bull" is good, but I much prefer "Rocky" and "Rocky 2" for boxing movies. I am huge fan of sports documentaries. "Riding Giants," "Dog Town and the Z-Boys" and "When we Were Kings" are all awesome.
It's amazing to think this, but we are only a week-and-a-half away from the start of CFL pre-season action. I can't wait to see how Jesse Lumsden does in Edmonton this year. |
