Nothing but a punk. . .


I'm sorry, but the film goes from showing how he skips SAT classes and doesn't bother really studying very hard (he talks on the phone while he's "studying") to him raising his score by 200-300 points. Hmmm. . . I WONDER if he cheated. Then he was so offended that they would review his grade!?! Yeah, like anyone who COULD pass the SAT couldn't put 2 and 2 together. He was nothing but a budding thug, which his behavior showed throughout the movie - "T-Diddy" preferred to emanate role models such as Randy Moss and Chad Johnson to guys who shut up and played the game like Barry Sanders and Walter Payton. His principle and his coaches kissed his butt right along with everyone else. He stole pizza, and the principle just chastised him. Remember the dry cleaning teacher? Aside from wondering why that is actually a class, did you notice that he wouldn't automatically pass the punk, so the punk left the class? He disrespected his coaches, and they had their silly little romp on the ground before the coach came over and kissed his butt some more. When I used to coach youth sports (albeit not at the high school level), if a kid mouthed off at practice that much, he wouldn't have played, championship be damned. Unfortunately, no one around that kid had the <ahem> marbles to put him in his place - one part of a TEAM!?!?! Sickening, really. I'm sorry that I patronized the film by watching it. I hope he either grows up or doesn't make it into the NFL, one or the other - kids these days don't need another punk role model.
