It was one of the most memorable movies of my youth...Terrence Howard as Spaceman, the scene where Drano is trying to teach Butter algebra...

Wow, that would actually make for a good tv show today... They would only have to get around 1 issue. That being, finding a white also ran forward sized guy, who was good enough to play a half dozen years without being a star.
To that end, I have nobody.

Talking about honeys getting chickens, right? Rhea Perlman was wretched in that movie and the guy who played Shorty was terrible... "What its like to be white?"

"What its like to be white?" Damn straight...Like butter baby... I didn't pay much attention to the scenes that didn't involve the players/team, and she definitely wasn't much to look at... Agreed about the actor playing Shorty, he's usually awful though... The game scenes were good, the stories around most of the players were good...
