For a brief period of time, Jonathan Lipnicki (the cute kid in Jerry Maguire) was the cute kid du jour, and the bespectacled little towhead had women of all ages gushing at his cuteness. Of course, we know what happens to most cute little child actors as they generally grow up to be of less than average looks. Just ask Brian Bonsall, Robbie Rist…and Jonathan Lipnicki.




The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
Jerry Maguire (1996)

Actor:
Jonathan Lipnicki

Role Portrayed:
Little Kid

Why you should vote for him:
He might have been the cutest kid in a film.

Why you should not vote for him:
What does the above really have to do with a sports film?

Pop Fisher

Is it just us, or does Wilfred Brimley look exactly like what we would expect an old time Baseball Manager to look like, thus making him seem perfect for the role of Pop Fisher, the Manager of the New York Knights? Of course, Brimley looks exactly like an oatmeal spokesmen, so again we state, what do we know?




The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
The Natural (1985)

Actor:
Wilfred Brimley

Role Portrayed:
Manager of the New York Knights

Why you should vote for him:
Because it’s the right thing to do. (Quaker Oats Joke)

Why you should not vote for him:
We used a Quaker Oats line for the above; that might say it all.

Will Farrell is a favorite for many, but he did have a few misses over the years. In a formulaic comedy where he is not allowed to showcase his talent, Kicking and Screaming could only be average at best, where as his son’s soccer coach, he fell into predictability; which for Farrell was not a recipe for success.  




The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
Kicking and Screaming (2005)

Actor:
Will Farrell

Role Portrayed:
Coach of the Tigers

Why you should vote for him:
It was not Farrell’s fault that the movie was average.

Why you should not vote for him:
There are better Will Farrell sports roles to consider.

Pete Eckhart

Pete Eckhart
We will say (though we are not completely sure) that Pete Eckhart is the de facto centerpiece of “The League”. As the three time League Champion, we get to witness much of his trials and tribulations, though we can’t say we are always as amused as we are with the antics of Taco MacArthur. So, if we reward this program, should we not recognize the three time champ first? We will let you decide that one.




The Bullet Points:
TV Show Appeared:
The League (2009-)

Actor:
Jon Lajoie

Role Portrayed:
Fantasy Football Team Owner

Why you should vote for him:
In theory, he is the best Fantasy Team Owner on Television. Now, what is that worth?

Why you should not vote for him:
The same for all “League” characters; this is a hit on a relatively small channel, and has not been seen by many.
