Did Walter Oakes ever win a game at Hillman College coaching their Basketball team? Maybe he did….honestly we don’t remember, nor do we recall any basketball themed episodes on “A Different World”. Actually, we don’t recall Sinbad ever making us laugh either. Wait, why he is on the ballot again?
The Bullet Points:
TV Show Appeared:
A Different World (1987-1993)
Actor:
Sinbad
Role Portrayed:
Coach
Coached for:
Hillman College
Why you should vote for him:
Maybe Sinbad slept with Lisa Bonet? We would respect that.
Why you should not vote for him:
As the Basketball Coach, we don’t recall him coaching anybody.

Actually, we just love the name of “Vicki Vallencourt”; and for a hot second we loved Fairuza Balk…..though we were not exactly sure why.

Sure he was crusty, and probably too old-school for his own good, but there was a charm in Coach Tony D’Amato’s love of Football’s past, and the way he clung to tradition. Often the coach in a sports film is not presented in a way that is likable, but D’Amato was anti-establishment; far unlike most of the Football coaches we are used to seeing.
We know that there are two major things working in Tony D’Amato’s favor for enshrinement in our Hall of Fame. The first is that captivating “inches” speech he delivered that can be made relevant in almost all walks of life. The second is the fact he had relations with a post-Showgirls, Elizabeth Berkley, who was easily the hottest woman in the film. Yeah, we know he paid for it, but we are choosing to give him a pass on it.
The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
Any Given Sunday (1999)
Actor:
Al Pacino
Role Portrayed:
Head Coach of the Miami Sharks
Why you should vote for him:
Say what you want about the realism of the movie, Pacino’s coaching speech near the end of the film was as good as anything any fictitious coach ever did.
Why you should not vote for him:
We have this funny feeling he won’t do that well as the General Manager and Head Coach of that Albuquerque expansion team.

There may not be a more unattractive woman in sports cinema, but you got to hand it to her, as she was able to get laid. She may have also delivered the most repulsive post sex diatribe showing her ample varicose veins and telling poor Roy Munson how there is “nothing like good sex” to “jar something loose”. Actually, she may be on the ballot just for her tongue action after her time with Roy. Bleechh.
The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
Kingpin (1996)
Actor:
Lin Shaye
Role Portrayed:
Roy Munson’s Landlady
Why you should vote for her:
If you saw this film, you REMEMBER her.
Why you should not vote for her:
Did she have anything to do with the sport of bowling? Not really.
