The Replacements
“Throw the ball. Catch the girl. Keep it simple.”
Maverick old-guard coach Jimmy McGinty is hired in the wake of a players' strike to help the Washington Sentinels advance to the playoffs. But that impossible dream hinges on whether his replacements can hunker down and do the job. So, McGinty dusts off his secret dossier of ex-players who never got a chance (or screwed up the one they were given) and knits together a bad-dream team of guys who just may give the Sentinels their title shot.
This is a spirited, feel-good ride about a ragtag group defying expectations. It's filled with underdog charm and a boisterous energy, celebrating the power of unlikely camaraderie and the thrill of a long shot. Expect plenty of laughs and a triumphant, uplifting spirit.
