THE TALENT IS THERE. This is so infuriating

We have a 5-star QB. Two 5-star WRs. A stable of stud RBs.

Clearly the least important part of this: my 9-year old saw me on screen, looked shocked for a split second, then walked away derisively saying “fake.”

Been a minute since I've been on that side of the camera 😬

this just reminded me of the "Jeffrey" bruhaha from Get Him to the Greek - and wow, I can't think of a single scene of a recent movie that's aged worse 😬
