Great call on Tanner from Bad News Bears, but in the same breath you have to mention Buttermaker, one of Matthau's best roles.

Morris Buttermaker is a real man...everyone else mentioned are a bunch of pusses.

Hell, even Roy Turner would lay out most of the guys on this list.

Charles S. Dutton as the groundskeeper in Rudy.

Hated Sean Astin as Rudy, though.

Yeah Astin couldn't quite pull off the ghey enough needed to be a ND player.


BTW why in the holy hell haven't Jack, Jeff & Steve Hanson been mentioned yet?!

How can these guys lay off pitches that close?
