David Greene
Does this one count? David Greene (Brendan Fraser) is from a working class Jewish family in Scranton, and is awarded an athletic scholarship to St. Matthews Prep. He faces bigotry once his teammates and classmates find out he is Jewish, but that is what the film is about, which overshadowed the few decent gridiron scenes from Fraser, who had the frame at the time to deliver it. This may have been one of the better roles of Fraser’s career (we are not exactly sure if that says something), but without seeing enough of the sport, do we really have a candidate here?
The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
School Ties (1992)
Actor:
Brendan Fraser
Position Portrayed:
Quarterback
Played for:
St. Matthews’s Prep
Why you should vote for him:
At the very least, Fraser looked like a guy who could have gotten a Football scholarship.
Why you should not vote for him:
It wasn’t much of a Football film was it?
