![]() ![]() I recommend that you do not sit on the bench and go out and see this film. Director Robert Lorenz may not have hit it out of the park (like he did with Million Dollar Baby), but I think that it is a definite triple play. There were aspects of the film that were totally predictable, but I looked forward to seeing it play out. I do not think that this film was utterly brilliant, but it was thoroughly entertaining. I think that the entire cast definitely made this film better and I am sure that it will draw young viewers to the theater. They have acted together in several films, and it was good to see them spending some family time together. It was also good to once again see Scott Eastwood (Billy Clark) act alongside his father. I really liked his unyielding devotion and trust to Gus. Pete Klein (John Goodman) plays the mediator role that brings Mickey and Gus together. The relationship that develops between Mickey (named for Mickey Mantle) and Johnny is fun to watch and provides some insight to Mickey's reluctance to develop a serious relationship with any man. Johnny Flanagan (Justin Timberlake) is an aspiring sports announcer who was scouted by Gus years ago. Incidentally, she knows more about baseball than probably anyone else in this film. His daughter Mickey (Amy Adams) discovers that her father is having difficulty, reluctantly takes on the roll of caregiver and follows her father on his scouting adventure. His character kind of reminded me of the character that Eastwood played in Grand Torino. Because of this affliction, Gus is a grumpy old man which actually adds a lot of humor to the film. Gus Lobel (Clint Eastwood) is an aging scout for the Atlanta Braves who is struggling with his eyesight and the front office has doubts about whether or not he is still up to the job of spotting up and coming talent. This film is the complete opposite of Money Ball, where technology actually helps in building a team. It also touched on how technology has taken over the human element of scouting for players. That being said, this film was not so much about baseball as it was about a father and daughter relationship.

Trump explained that he’d been pranked before and that it was “okay”. Trudel concluded by coming clean and telling Trump he was on a radio show. “We get along, we had our little differences, but we get along pretty well, I think,” Trump said. I don’t know what you think of him,” Trudel prodded hoping to get an answer from the former president. Trudel suggested he could organize a fight against “the Canadian champion Mario Tessier” - who is actually a comedian and radio host - and the sales could go to Trump’s campaign, to which he replied that they’ll talk about it. Trump accused of skipping town after promising 'food for everyone' at restaurant He expressed that though Trump “ has said a lot of dumb things,” he did see where he was coming from at times and is “just saying what’s on his mind.” While Eastwood was a registered Republican, his support for Trump was unclear during the former president’s campaign. “Really doing well… the country’s not doing well,” Trump said. The radio host continues to ask Trump how he’s been doing amid the legal turmoil he’s been facing. “Oh is this Clint? You sound about 30 years old,” Trump said skeptically. ![]() Kevin passed me his phone,” Rockman replied imitating the actor. How are you?” Trump says during the call.

In the almost two-minute-long video, he explained that Kevin, their made-up manager, received the call to put Trump on the line with the two pranksters. Trudel said that he was surprised at how quickly he was able to reach Trump and a prank like this would usually take months to accomplish. Trump’s former White House receptionist, Chamberlain Harris, returned Rockman’s call requesting more information and scheduled an interview for Wednesday, according to Quebec-based television network Noovo. ![]()
