Trivia
Marc Blucas' character can be seen wearing a Wake Forest basketball cap early in the movie. It is black with a yellow "WF" on the front. Blucas actually attended and played basketball on a full scholarship to Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem North Carolina. He started along with Tim Duncan there.

Goofs
During the season opener the announcer mentions that hitter Billy Brubaker has been struggling with the wood bats this season. Obviously he would not know this, nor is it possible since this is the season opener.

Quotes
Miles: Excuse me, I am tired of living a lie. I need it to be known that I like a big girl. In fact, a large, zaftig, voluptuous, full-figured, big-boned, massive-assive honey, that is what gets me going. I like fat women and they like me... big girls need love too, baby!

Alternate versions
DVD release features 12 minutes of deleted scenes.

Usual plot, usual movie

Yesterday I watched this movie in Pay-TV - okay, it just happened because of Jessica Biel, and in two scenes... whoa!

The movie is a mixture of an usual Teenie-Lovestory and an usual Sports Drama. All of it you have seen a thousand times in other movies and when you watch the first five minutes, you know how this movie ends.

I'm rating it 5/10.
