With the release of the latest Kevin Costner film The Draft, it seemed the ideal time to do a themed quiz on Hollywood’s love for American Football. Even if you’re not a fan of the sport, you might still get a couple so definitely give it a go.

The fact that I don’t like sport could be to blame for only scoring 2 on this one! I have been tempted to start watching Friday Night Lights though…..
Which two? I’ve read the book and seen the film. The soundtrack is astonishing. Not seen the TV show but it is highly regarded.
Jerry Maguire and The Waterboy. I didn’t even know that Friday Night Lights was a movie! I have Season 1 of the TV show but haven’t got round to it yet.
The book and film are great, but watching the TV show would have seemed a bit much, especially for a sport I’m not massively into. It seems to be pretty highly rated though, so you may well enjoy it 🙂
Got them all. 🙂
Nice one Cindy. Number three was a super hard one I thought you might all struggle on.
Of course I ended up getting them all, but only because the kid watches the second one over and over and over…
Never really found Sandler funny. He does have a large fan base mind. Superb score 🙂
I got ’em all but considering where I’m at, I should.
I look at your photos all the time (am always impressed) but I’ve never thought about where you live. Texas?
No, in the Bay Area in California not far from San Francisco.
Got ‘ em all. I think I’ve seen them all at least twice so I should have.
Out of the park dude. Or should I say nice touchdown. Love Jerry Maguire and Friday Night Lights especially. What did you think of The Blind Side?
only missed one. thought the third one was THe Last Boyscout because of the downpour
Not bad at all. I thought that the third one would throw more people off.
4/6. I never understand what is going on in these films though. Football is ridiculously confusing.
That’s not a bad score though, considering you don’t even like the game. Which sports do you like?
Cricket and rugby. I’ve put my ballot in for the RWC next year. Really hoping to get to see the Springboks play!
I’m interested in the Ashes and World Cup, but normally not so much otherwise. Have you always been a fan? I’ve applied for tickets for the RWC too. Good luck Abbi 🙂
My dad always watched a lot of sport so it was a good way to get his attention and to be able to do stuff with him. I also really like the mathematical element of cricket. Run rates and working out if a team is going to avoid the follow on and batting averages. Stuff like that. #lame.
Not at all. The Duckworth Lewis method is where I get stumped. Not just me though. A South African made an error in a World Cup Semi Final and cost them a place in the final.
The Blind Side (2009) ❤ i love it…
I do need to see it.
Two out of six…rubbish!
Was one of those Jerry Maguire? Such a good film.
Nope! No 2 and 6. Waterboy takes me back…I used to love that film!
Not seen The Blind Side. You liked it? Would you recommend it?
