Is Rudy a lame duck story?
I just got finished with my annual viewing of Rudy. I love the film dearly and it makes me blubber like a bitch every time I watch it.

But is it a lame duck story? Rudy got his ass pounded for months and endured untold amounts of humiliation only to dress for one game and play in one meaningless play.

Lame duck? Or heartwarmingly inspirational?

Poll forthcoming.

I vote heartwarming. Meaningless but heartwarming nonetheless.

I went with heart warming. He didn't get much, but he got what he always wanted; a chance to play for the Fighting Irish. It’s a great "no giving up" story.

It a little over the top but still a pretty good flick.

Also geting into a game for ND back then was a lot bigger deal that it is now. Probably would be more than geting a geting a sack in garbage time for KC.

I think you missed the point. The point is what he did when given the chance. If he goes in the one play he's been dreaming of all his life and gets pancaked, it's a lame duck story. If he goes in the one play he's been dreaming of all his life and sacks the fugging QB, it's a 'when opportunity knocks' story.

Man I lost so much money on that.
To this day I'm sure that QB was paid off, he didn't do shit to get away from Rudy.

That would've been a smart move on Rudy's part. For fifty bucks, he can tell his grandchildren that he made a sack at Notre Dame.



I wonder if, in a sequel, Rudy would suffer from depression and eventually sue Notre Dame, because he never got to play, foregoing a lucrative NFL career, and when he did get in, he had the highest sack-to-snap ratio of any defensive lineman in the history of college football.

Don't forget the part where he gets immortalized in a cult sports film. Pretty good payoff if you ask me.

The thing is that the real life Rudy campaigned for 16 years to get his story made into a movie.

It wasn't meaningless.

He got what he always wanted, to be included in the Notre Dame history books.
