If the commercials are the funny bits this is going to be one of the worst movies of the year IMHO.

Maybe they took the bass ackwards approach and just showed the dumb gags in their trailer?

This looks like another below-average spoof...but I'm seeing it on Saturday.

I really want my money back after seeing this one. Not funny at all and it missed out on so many movies and the spoofs were so forced at times it was sad to watch and .........

Spoiler:
.......the Duke Lacrosse scene was really bugged me for some reason and I think they may get sued over that.

Just watched it. Ugh, this was awful. The Jorge Juanson character made me chuckle a few times, but that's about it. Definitely worse than I was expecting.

It's too bad too, because this could have been really funny. There are a ton of sports movie scenes out there to spoof.
