Damn it this sucks.  He did so many great films, but this song is the most fitting:

I had read somewhere the studio managed to get 4 TAs from GM for the movie, by the time filming was finished only one of them still worked....

Who could forget this?



I saw this movie in high school and laughed so hard and got so long my unclue had to puase and rewind the VHS!

That was Ray Nitczcke, Hall of Fame Mike for the Packers in the 60s, and one of the best ever (and I hate the Packers).   

Wonder would happen if someone in the NFL did that today?

Tell ya one thing though, while awesome in a movie if some QB did that to me, one  id of taken the 15 and a 1st jump the snap, and center with a good old “helmet to lower face mask hit”

   I was never a fan if Burt Reynolds or his movies. This would be one if his better movies. My favorite Burt movie by a country mile was Deliverance.
