Welcome back. This has been somewhat of a melancholy week at Gamble-Tron headquarters, given the passing of legendary actor Burt Reynolds. Now, to be fair, he was only the second-best actor ever to be named Burt. And no, the best isn’t Burt Ward. Not only was Reynolds a good athlete in real life, one of his most famous roles (non-backwoods category) came in The Longest Yard as Paul Crewe, who played QB for the inmates.
And while you all know about his roles in Cannon Ball Run and Smokey and the Bandit, a quick search through his lengthy IMDB page shows some other great roles.
