Re: Favorite TV/Movie Athletes?

John Turturro was pretty darn entertaining as Billy Martin in "The Bronx is Burning":

Do coaches count, because Coach Taylor from the Friday Night Lights TV show is one of the best TV/Movie athletic characters I've ever seen. The guy is awesome.

The part where Franklin starts the singing/dancing in the Jail Cell is probably one of my favorite scenes.

Going to revise my list later after seeing all of the guys I forgot

The scene where Franklin tries using stick-em kills me every time I see it. Pure gold.

As badly produced as that movie is, I find myself watching it every time it's on TV. I love it, and I'm not really sure why
