I saw a film that I think could teach this team some good lessons. It is called "Facing the Giants". I would highly recommend it for anyone who is interested in achieving goals in football or life.

I thought the acting was great considering it was done with amateurs. In fact the whole movie was produced by amateurs which surprised me at how well it was done. I agree that it is doubtful that our team would relate to the message.
