In the sumer of 1976, 30-year old Vince Papale is having a tough run of luck. He's been working as a supply teacher for two days a week but has just found out that his job has been eliminated because of budget cuts. His wife gives up on him saying he'll never amount to anything and asks for a divorce. He works as a bartender and plays football with his friends. When the the new coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, Dick Vermeil, announces that he will hold open tryouts for the team, Vince reluctantly decides to give a try. In an almost unheard of feat, he manages to make the team and enjoyed a three year career as a professional football player. Based on a true story.
Featuring movie clips, as usual! Eric and J.D. review the new Mark Wahlberg sports flick "Invincible", while hardcore Philadelphia Eagles fan Nick Colby ridicules them and the Dallas Cowboys. Can our dedicated critics keep their focus or will they lose the battle to a big green bald man who takes no prisoners and has eaten no lunch? Originally appears on www.scene-stealers.com Produced by Footage Productions.
