In 2005, Walt Disney Pictures released the film, “The Greatest Game Ever Played.”
Shia LaBeouf played Francis Ouimet, the first amateur golfer to ever win the U.S. Open. It’s a beautiful Disney sports movie. There’s an uplifting soundtrack. There’s the goofy sidekick caddy. There’s even a little romance. It’s pretty good and has a 7.5 rating on IMDB.com — surprisingly high for a Shia LaBeouf film.
The film, based on a true story, may need a sequel after Saturday’s Missouri-Vanderbilt game, one that could be dubbed the “Second Greatest Game Ever Played.”
Scratch that. After further review, the referees (who made went to replay eight times Saturday for reviews) have overturned the call.
