The slacker in us loved Alex Moran. There was something appealing about the Blue Mountain State Quarterback who was good enough to get his scholarship but was not thinking about the next level (the NFL) and was content to live the college jock dream of booze and babes. However, late in the show’s run, he would go on to set college records and develops a bit of a work ethic; which we did admire, but our inner slacker could not help but think that sold out a bit. Now just what is the passing record at BMS worth?

Spoiler Alert: In this male weepfest, wouldn’t it have been better if Ricky Schroeder died at the end instead of Jon Voight? Just saying.

It was somewhat of a role of female empowerment, watching Anne Marie Chadwick exercise her past demons on the surfboard. The waves are not all that she has to overcome, as Chadwick is at a crossroads in life, like many young women and conquering the surf world is a microcosm for everything else in her life. This is actually a better movie and role than you might think.



The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
Blue Crush (2002)

Actor:
Kate Bosworth

Why you should vote for her:
This is actually one of the better female sports roles ever.

Why you should not vote for her:
Surfing, for as much as there many people who do it, is still somewhat of a fringe sport.

Already an Oscar winner by the time the Bad News Bears came out, Tatum O’Neal embarked on her second most famous role as the Starting Pitcher of the “Bad News” Bears. As Amanda Whurlitzer, her story was not just what she accomplished on the diamond, but her struggle to come to terms with her femininity, feelings of family and just being a pre-teen in general. Had she not joined the Bears (Kelly Leak aside), the Bears would have remained in last place which should give this entry a shot for the Hall; considering the iconic stature of the original film.
