Friday Night Lights: A cult classic directed by the broadly acclaimed Peter Berg, Friday Night Lights spans the season of a Texas high school football team. In West Texas (or so the story leads us to} believe) Douglas Costa Jersey , football is life, and vice versa. Since made into an award winning TV show, if nothing else Friday Night Lights is a gripping tale of the frailty of youth. We especially recommend this movie for teens and young adults. Try to catch it on Direct TV.
Any Given Sunday: The cast alone makes this movie a must-see. Jamie Foxx, Dennis Quaid, Cameron Diaz, Al Pacino and James Woods all on the same screen? Throw in cameos by rapper LL Cool J and former football star Lawrence Taylor Daniele Rugani Jersey , and you have the recipe for a very entertaining blockbuster feature. Brought up to the first-string due to an injury to the starting quarterback, Jamie Foxx's character is suddenly thrust into the limelight. Unfortunately, this new world of easy women, fast cars and HDTVs blaring rap videos 247 quickly begins to come apart at the seams, and the leading man is compelled to deal with issues including racism, drug abuse Dani Alves Jersey , and sexual misconduct. Perhaps a veiled attempt at an inside look into the National Football League, Any Given Sunday offers several hours of great entertainment.
Rudy: This is the ultimate feel good story, a tale of hard work, perserverance, and determination. Rudy is a young man from a small town in Indiana with just one dream: to wear the gold helmet of the Notre Dame Fightin' Irish. Unfortunately, his short Claudio Marchisio Jersey , unathletic body doesn't come close to matching his immense will to succeed. The story tracks his ups and downs, and transcends sports as a tale of emotion and the endurance of the human spirit. If you're trying to introduce a young person to the sport of football, make sure that Rudy precedes your subscription to the NFL Sunday Ticket.
The Replacements: Our final classic football film deviates from the other three by just a tad. The Replacements are a team of labor scabs led by the washed-up Shane Falco (played by Keanu Reeves). These "replacements" are really a serious crew of misfits, including a player recently freed from prison for the sole purpose of playing, as well as an gambling addict, alcoholic Brit. Those descriptions alone should let you know you're in for a rollicking good time. Choose any of Direct TV's premium movie programming packages Carlo Pinsoglio Jersey , and you'll have access to these movies and much, much more. Any of the above are a perfect complement to the exciting action on Sunday and Monday Night.
