The Offseason - Ep. 2: The GOATs of Movie Athletes Mini-Draft

With football season ending, baseball season not yet started, and college and pro basketball still not to their championship tournaments, The Message Pitch is combating the February Sports Blues by introducing a new series, titled "The Offseason." Each episode will serve as an evergreen piece that can be listened to at any time, as opposed to the tradition current events subjects The Message Pitch covers. Episode 2 of "The Offseason" series sees sports and pop culture collide as it focuses on the greatest athletes to ever grace the silver screen. In this episode, what started as a conversation about who the movie athlete GOAT is turned into a draft as Drew, Will, Matt and Jordo each picked a four-round mini team. The rules for a GOAT were simple: Rule 1: The athlete cannot be a portrayal of a real athlete in a biopic. Rule 2: The athlete cannot be a real athlete cameo, or an athlete playing themselves. (MJ in Space Jam is out, for example.) Rule 3: It can be any athlete, any sport, any movie. (And boy, did this rule get tested.) Check out the episode to see who made it, who didn't, and some of the more hilarious picks courtesy of Jordo and Will. Will also stunned the guys with his picks in a great and sincere performance. Weigh in on the picks, as well as your own picks, by visiting The Message Pitch on social media and at themessagepitch.com, be sure to like and subscribe, and leave us a review wherever you get your podcasts.
