So let's assume you need to build your ultimate sports roster comprised solely of movie athletes... who are you taking with the Top 5 Overall Picks? You can back up your picks any way you want, that's part of the fun. Build a team that could balance and dominate across all sports, or whatever. Mookie, feel free to draft both Johnny Utah and Shane Falco to your roster.
Here's mine: 1. Jesus Shuttlesworth - "He Got Game" (the only basketball player I can even think of to rival this is Neon Boudeaux from Blue Chips) 2. Adam Banks - "Mighty Ducks" (Almost took Julie Gaffney or Gunner Stahl, but I didn't really want a girl or a foreigner on my squad) 3. Willie Beamin - "Any Given Sunday" (My team is much more about 'keepin the ladies creamin' than winning, and that's what Steamin Willie Beamin does) 4. Rick Vaughn - "Major League" (#winning with the Wild Thing, who was apparently on 'roids while filming, making me want him on my team even more) 5. Ty Webb - "Caddyshack" (Wa na na na na na na na. Sha na na na na na na na na.)
1. Burt Reynolds: (The longest yard) Cus any woman Willie Beamin trys to bang, Burts done twice. 2. Kareem Abdul Jabbar: (Airplane). a skyhook that can't miss. Game over. 3. Bubba Smith: cus he passed away today, and belongs on this list. 4. OJ Simpson: (Hertz) gives me a leg, or heads up if its a knife fight. 5. Tom Cruise: (That lame football movie) Good for seconds on Burts chics, and gets the gay crowd spinning the turnstiles.
