To this day, we are still not sure what this movie was trying to be. If you have a clue, please let us know, as we did not really understand this mess was trying to achieve.
Coach Klein

Even though Henry Winkler never played a tough role after the Fonz, it still messes us up. As the mousy Coach Klein of the Southwest Louisiana State University, he was not overly successful. Although he was a wizard with plays, his prized playbook was taken from his rival, and he lacked the balls to stand up for himself afterwards; that is until he met Bobby Boucher, a simple Cajun boy who tears up College Football with his fierce linebacking skills. Boucher would be his biggest recruit and indirectly reignite his flair for drawing plays. The Fonz would win the Bourbon Bowl, so maybe he coached well enough to enter the Hall; despite having a record that would have gotten him turfed from every other job in Division I…..or even Pop Warner.
The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
The Waterboy (1998)
Actor:
Henry Winkler
Role Portrayed:
Head Coach of the South Central Louisiana State University Mud Dogs
Why you should vote for him:
Could a vote for Coach Klein be “Correctomundo”?
Why you should not vote for him:
Prior to recruiting Boucher, his won/loss record was horrid.

Coach Johnson

Likely anyone who played competitive sports on any level has had a coach like Coach Johnson (Charles Durning) in North Dallas Forty. You know the type; the one you mock openly (yet doesn’t pick up on it), brags about accomplishments that were not that impressive, and learned everything from a handbook. Durning nailed it perfectly, and we know we are not the only ones who had memories brought up by watching his portrayal of the North Dallas Assistant Coach.
The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
North Dallas Forty (1979)
Actor:
Charles Durning
Role Portrayed:
Assistant Coach of the North Dallas Bulls
Why you should vote for him:
He was half authority/half buffonery. That isn’t easy to pull off.
Why you should not vote for him:
The role was not large.

Coach Ernie Pantusso

The 2019 Fictitious Contributor Inductees
This may sound morbid, but we kind of thought that “Cheers” improved after the death of Nicholas Colasanto and thus the death of “Coach” Ernie Pantusso. Ironically, this would usher in the character of Woody Boyd, who may not be a Fictitious Athlete Hall of Fame nominee, but his portrayer, Woody Harrelson, has given us many.
‘Coach” was a shade above (or maybe below) retarded, and based on an episode showcasing his ability to be hit by pitches (and to the head), we think he may have taken one too many, as his intelligence had to be constantly questioned. Still, despite our criticisms of the character and our preference of the shows comedic value after he departed the show, there have been many others who preferred the show’s tone with him and felt it was an overall better program. The beautiful thing here is that this is open for your vote, and we are very curious to see where the Coach winds up on the ballot.
The Bullet Points:
TV Show Appeared:
Cheers (1982-85)
Actor:
Nicholas Colasanto
Role Portrayed:
Coach of the Pawtucket/Boston Red Sox
Why you should vote for him:
Many have considered the program better with him on it.
Why you should not vote for him:
Many have not.
