Post Football Father Again

This episode has been shown at least 4 or 5 times. Nick keeps replaying it.

I'm sick of this episode! Nick must have a rule that says: "Thou Must Play Football Father"

There was an even worse episode than this one last night IMO. Of course Diff'rent Strokes had Sports as its main feature on Nik at Nite's marathon:

The show was the episode where Sam's baseball team stunk & Mr D decided to coach them. Lance Parrish was the guest star. Here's what happened:

1: Were they playing ball in an alley or something? It looked very CheeseWiz to watch. At least Brady Bunch depicted an actual baseball game in the Don Drysdale show where Greg pitched.

2: Lance Parrish didn't set me on fire. Now I'll admit he did win a World Series but his acting. Well.... And I feel a Pop Up Unreality # whatever coming:

Celeb Ahoy. How convenient. Yeah if they were gonna feature Lance he should have made a better role, perhaps coached the team. Oh well at least he was only on 15 seconds.

3: The whole show became a cure for insomnia towards the end.

4: Sam struck out too much

Well at least Cousin Oliver wasn't in it; he'd a made a perfect doofus & the show was called "Bad News Bears". There it is.

Riches & Glory are in the vow of faith! Send a check or money order for at least $1000, preferably to my account in Zurich; I have a ski lodge up there!
