Another movie that is one of my favorites is the Replacements. This movie deals with a professional football team that was in the middle or the season, but they felt that they were not making enough money so they went into a lock out. None of the players on the team would be playing in the upcoming games, but they could rejoin the team at any point. So this meant that there would be replacement players until the lockout ended. The replacement players involved many former college players, one of which was an Ohio State quarterback Shane Falco. Falco joined the team during the lockout and his job was to win 3 of the 4 final games. In his first game his team lost. That meant in order to make the playoffs they had to win their final 3 games. During this period the professional players would start fights and problems with the replacements to make it interesting. The replacements ended up going into the final game with the opportunity to make the playoffs. There was a slight problem though because the professional quarterback ended his lockout to join the team so Falco was done. The game was off to a terrible start though and the pro quarterback played really bad so at halftime, Shane Falco came in to locker room and suited up to finish the game. He ended up leading the team to a win and a trip to the playoffs. This movie is also a favorite because it is a comedy too. This a great movie for laughs and football.
