Episode 123- Necessary Roughness (1991)

Tasked with overhauling a university football team that was dismantled for breaking collegiate rules, coaches Wally Riggendorf (Robert Loggia) and Ed Gennero (Héctor Elizondo) pick unusual new players like junior professor Andre Krimm (Sinbad) and 30-something quarterback Paul Blake (Scott Bakula). As Paul courts professor Suzanne Carter (Harley Jane Kozak), the team struggles until the arrival of a female placekicker, who bolsters the squad as it gets ready to challenge its big rival.

Jack pulls a Hail Mary from his childhood and brings us a favorite nostalgia film with his choice of "Necessary Roughness" (1991) for our #Football genre.  Discussing the cast consisting of Hector Elizondo, Robert Loggia, Scott Bakula and Ms. Ireland we continue to gush.  The film has heart and the feels to back it up, while still following the formulaic style of the typical football film.  It's an underdog story that we can all get behind.  

We are the Reel Feels Podcast, every other Wednesday we'll bring you a new movie with all the feels you can handle.  We'll laugh, we'll cry and possibly restrain the frustrations to curse the heavens. But what you can count on is three guys sharing their love of cinema with you.  

Please leave us a review and share your "reel" feelings. 

Don't forget to call the "Tucc" line (Reel Feels Hotline) and leave us a voicemail: 661-376-0030
