Bad News Bears

To pass the time on the trip, Michael has been watching some classic movies that he's old enough to check out now.  He's seen Ferris Buehler and Major League for the first time.  Today's movie was the Bad News Bears.  By far, it is his new favorite movie of all time.  Tanner Boyle is his new hero.  I forgot how funny that movie was.  That movie could never be made today - way too politically incorrect.  Buttermaker would have been arrested for child abuse today.  The kids were flipping each other off during the game.  Tanner Boyle was hilarious.  But if you played little league in the 70s as I did, that's how it was.  Michael was losing his breath he laughed so hard.  Anyway, tomorrow's movie is Field of Dreams - one of my favorites of all time.  Definitely one of the few movies where guys get choked up.  That final scene still gets me.
