I saw the ending of it when the kids were play their final game ang heres my questions

-Does the team that plays with Air Bud 'that' bad?! they need a frekin dog that could grab a football with its mouth and run to the touchdown?! Now from what i saw the team played so bad that they need to break the rules and have a dog(dogs have more agility than us humans so that right their is cheating)to beat the other team. Also i feel kinda bad for the dog having to wear a football suit plus the helmet and making the dog look like a retard XD. and one last thing ... why did they need to do a sequel..

Golden receiver was a sequel. I dunno, they had probably planned to make several installments from the beginning. I don't like the newest one, though, with air buds pups. It's like Beethoven all over again : |

Yeah the team sucked really bad but then they scored that one point at the end without the aid of Bud and proved they had it all along.

Also the film has evil russian circus people and a skateboarding monkey, what's not to love?

Chimp, not monkey. There is a difference.

No, I have no expertise in the area. The fact is, it might have been a monkey programming what was then my favorite radio station.

See "Time, Love and Tenderness" on the "Snow Dogs" board.

For your first question, yes they are that bad.
Josh only joined because if he hadn't the team wouldn't have had enough players, I believe. And his friend is an idiot who cannot really play. The coach was also all about "love of the sport" (aka doesn't really know anything and turned had to turn to his like twelve-year-old coach assistant for help deciding plays).

Anyway, the first movie brought in like $4million, so of course they were going to make another. Unlike the original, this one used 6 dogs instead of 1. The original Air Bud died of cancer (at 10) before the movie was released. As such, they released it in memory of him.
