Movie Review<\/p>\n
Will Harris has always wanted to be a Roarball pro.<\/p>\n
Granted, Roarball is a high-intensity, full-contact, coed sport that was designed for large and brawny animals. And as a billy goat, Will is decidedly not large. Or brawny. He\u2019s been working out like crazy and can still only form the semblance of a flexed muscle when he pushes up the loose skin on his arm. (Or maybe when he rolls up his shirt sleeves really high.)<\/p>\n
But Will has dreamed of playing Roarball since he was a kid. His mom used to take him to games and cheer right by his side. And when Will said he wanted to play for the local Vineland Thorns club\u2014scrambling and passing alongside the incredible black leopard, Jett Filmore\u2014she cheered on that dream, too. Will\u2019s mom was always like that. Always. He misses her a lot.<\/p>\n
These days, though, Will lives pretty much hand-to-mouth. He works delivery jobs and tries to keep up on the rent for the small empty garage he calls home. There are few who will support him or cheer him on, but he still has his dream.<\/p>\n
Then Will\u2019s big break arrives.<\/p>\n
The Thorns have been floundering as a team. Jett Filmore is great, but she can\u2019t do it all on her own. And some say she\u2019s getting a bit long in the tooth. For that matter, the team\u2019s greedy owner, Flo Everson, refuses to pony up any money to support the star athlete with decent support talent.<\/p>\n
However, Everson also realizes that if she\u2019s gonna be able to sell the team at some point for a hefty payday, she\u2019ll need to stir up some publicity. That\u2019s when she spots a viral video, created by Will\u2019s nerdy friends, showcasing the young goat\u2019s Roarball talents.<\/p>\n
A wonderful idea hits Everson like a bolt from the sky. Why not hire a local boy? \u00a0And a goat at that! The sports news crews will eat that up. Everson will look like she\u2019s supporting the small-animal community, and Jett will have to stop complaining that there\u2019s no new talent. But best of all, the move will get an influx of local animals to buy tickets and fill the auditorium seats. Hey, the team won\u2019t even have to play the kid\u2014just parade him around for local games. It\u2019s genius!<\/p>\n
Jett, however, loathes the idea. And the other members of the Thorns aren\u2019t happy about it either. They may be losers, but they don\u2019t want to be laughing stocks.<\/p>\n
Of course, Will is pretty woohoo happy about getting signed out of the blue. He\u2019ll just have to earn his place on the court with animals five times his size. He can handle that. He\u2019s had to face worse odds his whole life.<\/p>\n
Will just needs to find a way to become exactly what his beloved Thorns need.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Movie Review Will Harris has always wanted to be a Roarball pro.
