The CCD Podcast: Episode #89 - The Best Football Movies Ever

There is something about Football movies that separates them from all sports movies in general. The raw carnage of the games... the depth of the team dynamic... maybe the dichotomy of the warrior on the field vs. the normal human being off it... whatever it is, it makes Football movies unique. With the 2016 Super Bowl past us, we decided this would be a great time to delve deep into the world of the USA's most popular sport and see which films hold up through the years. Join Jedi Rob, filmmaker Leland James and Mike D as they do there best to remember all the great football films in cinema history!    

Whatup Mario Smith!!!!

I used to teach/coach with a guy named Mario Smith over at Pace High School in Miami, Florida. My man Mario was a great co-worker, a great coach, and a hell of a football player himself before we worked together at Pace from 2002-2004. He is still coaching there (I think)... but tonight I was dicking around on YouTube and saw what most Kansas State football fans refer to as "The Hit". It took place in the 1997 Cotton Bowl against BYU... here you go:



Holy.... Shit. That guy must have died.... did you see his legs shake afterward? Big hit from a big player. Just wanted to show my boy Mario a bit of love. Hope your Spartans are doing well... say whatup to Coach Zach for me!!!
