Grab the pigskin and let's hit the field, we're knockin' heads and diving into the end zone to discuss the high school sports classic, Varsity Blues. We've got Van Der Beek, baby Paul Walker, Amy Smart, and the wonderful Ali Larter trying to make it out of small town Texas. We talk about cycles of power, taking back power, labor and safety, the dangers of the cult of football, and much more as we look back at this high school comedy.
