A rag-tag bunch of nobodies has to square off against the unstoppable professionals of the best local youth team. It is a great story, but it has been done to death. If you're a fan of Will Ferrel, you will like this movie. He is very funny in it. The movie also tells the story of the relationship between father and son with both comedy and touching moments sprinkled in. Robert Duvall gives his usual great performance. Mike Ditka gives a pretty funny performance as himself. He played exactly what his image is. If you go to this movie expecting to laugh, you will feel it is worth it!

Spoken like an Angel from above...:)

You got it...

I can only pray more and more parents, organizations fighting with one another, political leaders fighting with one another, and the Media - Film -TV-Radio-NEWS Anchors will wake up and understand how important the TRUTH about SHARED PARENTING - really is - to our CHILDREN's Future's in America and around the WORLD...:)

Weve tried it for over 30 years of Family Law - one way - WE CAN try it another - for a CHANGE?

Thank you for your kind comment Ms Theresa...:)!
