THE BAD NEWS BEARS

Former minor leaguer Morris Buttermaker is a lazy, beer swilling pool cleaner who takes money to coach the Bears, a bunch of disheveled misfits who have virtually no baseball talent. Realizing his dilemma, Buttermaker brings aboard girl pitching ace Amanda Whurlizer, the daughter of a former girlfriend, and Kelly Leak, a motorcycle punk who happens to be the best player around.

Alan and Craig discuss failure, a Hullabaloo recap, helicopter parents and the classic baseball movie “The Bad News Bears” on this week’s Matinee Heroes!
