Heart of the Game $12.74 Bill Resler was a professor at the University of Washington who had possessed a passionate interest in basketball. Resler decided to put his love of the game to work when he heard that Seattle’s Roosevelt High School needed a coach for their women’s basketball team. Despite having almost no experience as a coach, Resler landed the job, and soon began making a difference with the team, firing his players up with enthusiasm and encouraging them to think of themselves not as girl basketball players, but as athletes. Resler’s coaching helped to turn a team that usually sat near the bottom of the rankings into serious contenders for a district championship, and produced at least one star player, point guard Darnella Russell. Russell is a gifted player who hopes she can turn her talent on the court into a college scholarship, since her family can’t afford to send her on their own dime, but Russell also has a sharp tongue and a short temper that has earned her a reputation as a disciplinary problem. When Russell becomes pregnant, she finds herself fighting to remain in school, and to hold on to her eligibility to play on the team in the future. The Heart of the Game is a documentary which examines Bill Resler’s fight to rebuild the women’s basketball program at Roosevelt and Russell’s battle to stay in the game. The Heart of the Game earned an enthusiastic reception following its screenings at the 2005 Toronto Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi |

Eric Holder became the first African American to serve as United States Attorney General. Ella Fitzgerald and Count Basie were the first African Americans to win Grammy awards.

Game Seven $9.99 What’s a man to do when he can no longer sustain civility? Paul Crispin has given it his all for most of his life but has unwittingly reached a brick wall in matters of love, family and friendships. For Paul, all avenues lead to a cliff that he will eventually have to run over.So close to thirty, Paul lives his life like a grumpy old man nearing retirement. There have been casualties of love along the way as his former wife just couldn’t take the constant mind trips and found a new man. His only true companion is a squirrel named Ralphie. As long as he feeds it, it provides a sense of purpose in Paul’s life, one that is either spent in a small, enclosed apartment or an even smaller, enclosed cubicle. His total number of friends could be counted on one hand using just his middle finger. It would appear his career choice in journalism was a bad one, but it wouldn’t matter. If Paul was making pizzas or performing open heart surgery, he’d still be a mess of a man. The seeds of discontent were planted early on in a childhood that was better left on the backburner.Behind a recent wave of health problems, Paul is quickly reaching the end of his life. As tortured as he made his life appear, it was a vacation compared to the horror that is waiting him at the end. There isn’t going to be a quick flash and sudden entrance into a tunnel of light and an everlasting afterlife. It’s going to be slow and painful, both physically and mentally.He’s going to get to obsess over his favorite hockey team one last time. The Colorado Avalanche are in the Stanley Cup Finals and Paul can only cling to the hope that he can get his last bastion of adrenaline from knowing his Avs are world champs. Distractions at work and in his head are doing a number on his psyche and the games become his only goal worth seeing to the finish. At work, there are three women content on seeing Paul fail. Betty, Donna and Charlene will be the last people to make |

Longshot: The Adventures of a Deaf Fundamentalist Mormon Kid and His Journey to the NBA $0.99 Lance Allred was probably the last person you’d expect to make it in professional sports. Not only did he grow up on a polygamist commune in Montana, he struggles with obsessive-compulsive disorder. If those hurdles to the NBA don’t seem large enough, Lance is also deaf. Self-deprecating, witty, and wholly original, Longshot is the unlikely story of an unlikely athlete, who despite these factors and a lot of setbacks along the way, finally realized his dream of playing in the NBA, becoming the first legally deaf player in the league. Lance refused to let others’ expectations hinder his dreams, and his refreshing sense of humor about his disability allowed him to face these setbacks without giving up. From his childhood on the commune where he was “Mormon royalty” (his grandfather was prophet Rulon Allred of the fundamentalist sect) to his first time picking up a basketball (eighth grade), to his clumsy efforts to build his skills while growing into his 6′ 11″ frame, Longshot is a riveting account of a young man finding his purpose and letting the love of the game drive him toward his ultimate goal. Going inside the competitive world of collegiate basketball and the strange experience of playing professionally in Europe, with paychecks that never arrive and a knee injury Lance’s team didn’t want to cover, Longshot recounts the moment when Lance hit rock bottom. When he came back to the United States for surgery, Lance was prepared to let go of his basketball dreams and become a high school history teacher like his dad. But luckily he had an agent who didn’t want to see Lance’s dream die, and who found him a deal with the Idaho Stampede, an NBA Development League team in Boise. Although it was paltry pay, it was the last resort. And Lance slowly began to be noticed. Revealing the resilient heart of a young man who truly believes that it’s not about failure or success but about being willing to try, Longshot is a Rudy |

Match Made in Heaven $0.99 That’s the question Elliott Goodman hears in the OR as he’s about to have emergency surgery following a heart attack. But it isn’t Elliott’s surgeon who’s asking. It’s God. As in the Almighty. And God has a wager for Elliott. He challenges him to an eighteen-hole golf match. If Elliott wins, he is saved; if he loses…So begins this witty, insightful, and very funny novel about golf and life and the lessons learned from both.To be fair (isn’t He always?), God sends down eighteen legendary opponents to play against Elliott and hopefully teach him a few tricks along the way. From Leonardo da Vinci (nice clubs) to Marilyn Monroe (nice…everything), Babe Ruth (pass the hot dogs), Abraham Lincoln (cheater!), and fourteen other luminaries, including Moses, John Lennon, Joan of Arc, Picasso, W.C. Fields, Socrates, Babe Didrikson Zaharias, Beethoven, Gandhi, and Shakespeare, Elliott squares off against some of the most extraordinary people who’ve ever lived. As shots are analyzed, balls enter bunkers, and Freud drives the cart (control freak), Elliott has a chance to examine his life and his form, to see what he can correct or improve before facing his ultimate adversary.Bighearted and delightfully original, Bob Mitchell’s Match Made in Heaven is a grand celebration of golf and a profound parable of traveling our own personal fairways in a game where no effort is wasted, and every failure is just another chance to try again. |

Mount Olympus Basketball $7.99 What happens when the mightiest of mortals take on the greatest of gods in an apocalyptic basketball showdown? Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, and the rest of the Gods’ squad have all the powers of the universe at their disposal-which makes for a deadly defense and an unstoppable offense. But those pesky Mortals are always causing trouble, and with hunky Hercules at the top of his game and Achilles’ heel healing nicely after his surgery, the Mortals manage to stay alive until halftime. Who knows what mythological magic the Gods will have to conjure up to win this Hellenic heart stopper? Complete with toga-clad announcers and a halftime report on the wonders of ancient Greece, Kevin O’Malley’s Mount Olympus Basketball makes learning about ancient Greek myths more exciting than March Madness. As punishment for acting out in class, Kevin was often sent to the library for a timeout. Resigned to his fate, he grudgingly started to leaf through a pile of picture books. There were pictures of cute little ponies, cute little puppies, and cute little children with smiling parents beaming behind them. Yuck, yuck, and double yuck! Then, just when he thought he would fall off his chair and die of cuteness, Kevin came upon a picture of a boy in a wolf suit who was threatening to eat his mother. In another picture he was chasing his dog with a fork. This was somebody Kevin could relate to. He kept reading as the boy cavorted through the forest with big hairy monsters. Kevin loved it! The book was, of course, Where the Wild Things Are. From then on, Kevin wanted to illustrate children’s books. Not cute children’s books, but books for kids like him. |
