This week we tried something a little different: we decided to watch the 2005 remake to The Bad News Bears and make an informed comparison to the 1976 version, in which Jackie Earle Haley played tough guy Kelly Leak. We suffered through it to bring you all the detailed information you were curious about, but didn’t dare to investigate. Remember that the Who Runs Paramount? contest is still open. More details at the end of the episode.

Hey ladies and everyone involved in these Podcasts, I love you all so very much because I can relate/agree with everything you all say! Haha, especially about the Bad News Bears remake….I decided to give it a try and watched the first few minutes of it and closed it immediately I saw the new Kelly Leak….I was mortified! He cannot act and…ugh!
Recently (because I was rather bored and thought Amelia Cruz was absolutely beautiful), I looked up Jackie’s wife’s name on Google Images just to see some wonderful two shots of them in the Oscars, and I found one picture where she is with a child on a boat. It turns out that the picture is her Facebook profile picture…but I took another glance at the child and noticed she had eyes that looked JUST LIKE Jackie. I’m not sure if anyone has actually seen this picture but I was literally sitting there in with my mouth wide open by how beautiful and how alike she looks to Jackie! I’m positive she is Olivia (Wikipedia research) because she still looks young, but she looks almost as if a girl version of Kelly Leak! I may be behind on this, maybe this picture has been up for awhile and everyone here has seen it, but I’m still going to gush about it because it is such a beautiful photo. Oh children are just miracles and how they can really carry traits of their own parents.
I feel stalker-ish but I think everyone does after obsessing over everything relating to their favorite people.
Again, thanks for all your informative/fun podcasts that us fangirls can listen to! Take care all! :)
Thanks for listening, Mia! His wife is rather beautiful, seems no one can help but notice. Her hair is gorge. no?
Glad you enjoyed the ep! The only good to come out us watching the Bad News Bears remake is that no one else has to. Ever again.
