Does anyone else have any? I received this one from a dirty santa party recently, and I cannot wait to watch it. I've just been waiting for the most opportune time. I feel I must say this now: I have transcribed everything exactly as it appears on the VHS box (punctuation and everything, except for the cast list, which I've added some extra bolding stuff to, just to point out some of the highlights of the all-star cast). This just... wow. I just can't wait to see how they move from one plot point to the other, based on the info given on the back of the box.

Reggie’s Prayer

“A powerful fiction story about a superstar-turned high school coach who transforms at-risk kids into champions.”

Cast List:
- Reggie White
- Pat Morita (a.k.a. Mr. Miyagi)
- The Giant
- Cylk Cozart
- M.C. Hammer
- Rosey Grier
- Brett Favre
- Mike Holmgren
- Keith Jackson
- Bryce Paup
- Mel Renfro
- William Roaf

Football superstar Reggie Knox (White), retires at the top of his game to become a coach and 10th grade history teacher at Principle Osaki’s (Morita) inner city high school.

Mr. Portola (The Giant), the neighborhood thug, has been recruiting kids into the fringes of street crime. When a football player gets tangled up in Portola’s underworld schemes, the boy is kidnapped. A wilderness chase pits Reggie against Portola while the life of a 16-year old boy hangs in the balance between good and evil.

Two high school janitors (Holmgren and Favre) offer up a “home-made” play that just might win the big game for Portland Central High School if Reggie can find his lost sheep in time and return safely.

I love that they throw in Favre and Holmgren as janitors, who happen to create some super amazing football play. Anyone up for a watch party? I'll make popcorn.

I would love to watch this.

I have a blacksploitation called Lady Cocoa which is pretty rad (despite the sound not really working).  The film was made at the height of "Mean" Jo Greene's career, or something, so his is in most of it, but has no lines whatsoever.  Apparently the directors didn't trust his delivery. 

Narr:
Oh my god, dude, I want that movie.

When was it made?  I'm guessing around 1996 seeing that's the year they won the Super Bowl.

I cannot believe that I own a copy of Who's Harry Crumb, but I do.
