My wife is from Indiana. She played for Notre Dame in the '90s. She was an extra during the filming but didn't show up on film.

2024-10-05 16:33:38 +0000 UTC@Stanger As a Webber-era Kings fan, what are your feelings on Jason Williams aka white chocolate? I grew up not too far from where he and Randy Moss went to high school in West Virginia. Since we were a state with no pro teams, it wasn’t uncommon to see Kings and Vikings swag around rural WV in the late 90s. I still go back and watch those Webber/Williams highlights once a year. Truly a blue chip duo.

2024-09-28 03:34:35 +0000 UTC@actionboyz I don’t know where else to ask but are janitor level subscribers no longer getting the movie in advance on Twitter? Is there another place to get the movie announcement?

2024-09-24 22:48:05 +0000 UTCdon't get to always watch the movies and not super into sports so hearing this one wasn't for me. not anything the boys did, just what the movie is. i love friedkin, but blue chips got me ready for horror boys.

2024-09-24 14:14:06 +0000 UTCMy first job as a teacher was at Frankfort High School in Indiana, home of Case Arena as seen in Blue Chips. It is as cool in person as it looks on screen. Apparently the production offered to pay for central air to be installed in the school as part of the deal to film there but the corporation refused because they were worried that they wouldn’t have the budget to pay the electric bills. When I was there in the late oughties it still had no air conditioning. Some brutal first days of school for sure. Oh and Frankfort’s mascot is the Hotdogs.

Casey Casperson
2024-09-24 02:24:50 +0000 UTCIn addition to appearing in ‘Bull Durham’, Robert Wuhl’s the second lead in Ron Shelton’s ‘Cobb’, which would be a wild pick for Sportstember.

2024-09-24 02:21:03 +0000 UTCThey legalized spousal abuse and sports gambling? I really don’t understand Project 2025 at all.

2024-09-24 01:30:11 +0000 UTCI always thought this movie was a two-hander comedy with Nolte and Shaq. Probably just conflating it with The Air Up There.
Dustin
2024-09-24 01:16:47 +0000 UTCAgree with the boys on all levels. I like sports gambling, I think college players should be paid, and I think that overall that the way sports gambling is heading it will destroy many peoples lives but also makes watching sports in general less fun because they're so inundated with gambling ads that are fully integrated into broadcasts. On top of that, I just read a pretty wild article about how last year Michigan State players almost boycotted a game because the biggest NIL backers pulled out their money. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2024-09-12/college-football-stars-get-rich-while-nil-deals-fail-other-players
Scott Tammel
2024-09-24 01:02:39 +0000 UTCThere's also terrible numbers that suggest a direct connection between spousal abuse and sports gambling being legalized + sports gambling losses.

2024-09-24 00:51:46 +0000 UTCThe state of Florida just went through with sports betting through the Seminole Tribe as long the state gets to tax them on it. My program I run for the state was set to get a percentage of the tax revenue from this new agreement. We're set to receive over 300 million dollars when we were expected to receive 50-75 million lol Unsurprisingly the state vastly underestimated how much people gamble.

Grimace
2024-09-23 19:07:14 +0000 UTCI kinda liked this movie but it’s hard watching Noltes character now in the age of NIL. All arguments against paying players aside, it’s obvious it’s been happening anyway since the beginning of college athletics.

2024-09-23 15:37:51 +0000 UTCTo tie Mopar and action TV together there was a 90s series call Viper. It revolved around a Dodge Viper that morphed into a Bond-esque version of itself to fight crime. I think the made a motorcycle version at some point too.

And the lady just left him laying there from what I’ve seen on the news.
