Dodgeball - A True Underdog Story

mr_goo

What with the ongoing issues surrounding LA and USADA/UCI et all. Will we see his bit part as 'himself' removed from Dodgeball. Especially since his script is all about not giving up.

I noticed the other week that somebody has already removed the video of Lance Armstrong's cameo from Youtube. Why the person felt compelled to remove two minutes worth of Dodgeball from Youtube because of the USADA findings, I have no idea? Its all a bit OTT.

But he didn't give up!
Even when the rumours started and team mates got caught, he carried on with the doping programme :twisted:
Allegedly (do we still need to include that?)

I would like the airport scene re-shot.
Barman - George Hincapie
Waiter - Floyd Landis
Airport Check In - Johan Bruyneel
Australian Backpacker - Matt White
Peter La Fleur - Vince Vaughn to be replaced with Jan Ullrich
LA - LA

Script should change to:

LA - Hey aren't you Jan Ullrich?
JU - Lance Armstrong!
LA - Ya, that's me but I'm a big fan of yours.
JU - Really?
LA - Ya, I've been watching the dodgeball tournament on the Ocho. ESPN 8. I just can't get enough of it (LA looks
longingly at the shelf full of pills and blood bags next to TV ) Good luck in the tournament. I'm really pulling for you against those cheating jerks from Festina. I think you better hurry up or you're going to be late.
JU - Uh....Actually I decided to quit...Lance.
LA - Quit! You know once I was thinking of quitting when I was diagnosed with brain, lung and testicular cancer all at the same time. But with the love and support of my friends, family and Dr Ferrari, I got back on the bike and won the Tour de France 5 times in a row. But I'm sure you have a good reason to quit. So what are you dying of to keep you from the finals?
JU - Right now it feels a little bit like...shame, the shame of losing to you, that's why I took up dodgeball.
LA - Well, a person should never quit when the going gets tough they should find other means to overcome those obstacles. However they may regret them later in life. But good luck to you Jan I'm sure the decision won't haunt you forever.

If you remove LA from Dodgeball you'd have to at least also remove O J Simpson from Naked Gun as a person who, er, fights crime!

Fair point. Though Pantani is no longer with us and he was very much a flawed character, unlike LA who always tries to give off the 'no flies on me' persona.

nevman

Read in Variety that they are fliming a new doc.re Pantani-in Derbyshire of all places.Cannot be long before an even bigger film script pitches to Hollywood, where another flawed egoist hits the skids.Im available for the Ullrich role.
