After Reflecting On My Last Post
I realized that some movies I've always thought of as "sports movies" are totally NOT sports movies.
For example:
Vision Quest = NOT a sports movie.
Youngblood = NOT a sports movie.
The Cutting Edge = NOT a sports movie.
Space Camp = Just kidding, I haven't even seen it.
Rocky = SPORTS MOVIE.
I think the rule is: if it stars at least one member of the Brat Pack, OR a guy would not watch it more than once, OR there are shots of any player shirtless outside of practice or the locker room, it's not a sports movie.
Or, you know, if it's not about sports.

The Cutting Edge? LOVE THAT MOVIE.
TOE PICK!
Rocky is not a sports movie, it's a love story. Or so says one of my creative writing teacherzzzzz.
What kind of guy wouldn't watch The Cutting Edge more than once?
I LOVE THE CUTTING EDGE. It's just not a sports movie, and not because it's about figure skating. Undeniably, it's a love story.
When I stopped in Duane Reade last night to buy shampoo (intended) and a KING SIZE! bag of Raisinets (impulse), The Cutting Edge was on sale for $9.99 up near the register. I thought maybe it was a sign from Gourd, but didn't buy it.
I love your blog...!
Your "about me" is very funny.
THANKS!!!!!!
