The Magic of Disney Movies
Note to readers: I was hosted by Disney Studios to help review and promote the Super Buddies movie. I was not otherwise compensated and my opinions remain my own. It’s my birthday today, but I...
I have played sports for my entire life. I started in kindergarten and played through college. My father at many points in my life was either always a coach or a supporter. He never missed games and was always there to give me advice on how to make my game better. I appreciate the support that he gave me. I know first hand how tough it can be for athletes.
Athletes tend to be those people who go above and beyond. Athletes are coachable, trainable and are always willing to better themselves. There are many athletes in my life that I have admired and looked to for inspiration.
From the writer of Rudy and Hoosiers, comes a movie about football, courage and showing what winners are truly made of. The story Freddie Steinmark is brought to the big screen. Winner of the the Truly Moving Picture Award from Heartland Film, My All American shares an incredible story of triumph and sheer determination.
What Freddie Steinmark wants most in the world is to play football. Deemed too small by the usual athletic standards, his father trains him hard, and Freddie brings a fight to the game that ultimately gets him noticed – by none other than legendary University of Texas coach Darrell Royal. Awarded a scholarship and a chance to play for the Longhorns, Freddie sets off to Austin determined to make the team.
Alongside his old teammate Bobby Mitchell and new pal James Street they rise to the occasion, giving the Longhorns a real chance to turn the team around. But just when they're reveling in the success of the season, Freddie suffers an injury that leads him to a shocking diagnosis and the biggest challenge he will ever face.
The true story, UT's 1969 national championship-winning football team heroes, Coach Darrell Royal and defensive back Freddie Steinmark. Movie will be released November 13, 2015 starring Finn Wittrock, Aaron Eckhart, Sarah Bolger, Robin Tunney, Michael Reilly Burke. Screenplay written and directed by Angelo Pizzo.
This movie is inspirational and follows the lives of many athletes who made up the 1969 University of Texas Longhorns team. Freddie Steinmark was their fearless leader and indeed an underdog on the gridiron. He then faces the toughest challenge of his life after leading his team to a championship season. This is an excellent and I highly recommend seeing it. My family was riveted.
Now you have the opportunity to nominate your own All American and you could win a trip for two to the premiere just by nominating someone. How great is that? Go here to nominate.
I nominated my father as an All American. He is the epitome of the American father. My dad served his country in the Army and retired as a Colonel. He also coached me and my sister in every sport imaginable and never missed a game. In addition, he often 2-3 jobs just to support us. There is no one that is more all American than my father.

This sounds like an amazing movie indeed and I have wanted to see this since hearing about it. I don’t know who I would nominate for sure but I am thinking my son who has struggled with hearing loss and stunted growth since he was young. He still joined sports when he could even though he was the smallest on the teams.
Sports movies always tug at my heartstrings. There are such great motivational stories. I can’t wait to see this one.
