FANTASY FILM HOCKEY TRADING CARDS


Now that the battle for Lord Stanley's Cup is waging, I thought it was time to create another pack of virtual movie sports character cards. This time featuring Hockey characters. You can check out Football, Baseball and Basketball by clicking here. Like before, I try to set the character in a card design that was actually available during the year the movie was released.

FANTASY FILM FOOTBALL TRADING CARDS


It's that time of year when football fanatics and sports nerds unite to draft a team for their fantasy football leagues. This weekend I'll be getting together with my crew of friends for our FFL draft. Pretending to pick fictional football players from movies seems to be a recurring joke at our draft. This tireless joke inspired me to create some virtual trading cards of fake football players from real movies. (I'm more of a baseball fan, so I was in need of some motivation to get hyped up for football and this project was it!) 

Okay, let's open the pack of ten Fantasy Film Football picture cards and see who we'll be drafting in our fantasy football league or sticking in-between bicycle spokes! 


First the stale cardboard tasting gum. Mmm...mmm...yum! 


 Paul (Wrecking) Crew - Quarterback - Mean Machine - The Longest Yard (1974)
Played by Burt Reynolds 


Coach Venner - Coach - California Atoms - Gus (1976)
Played by Don Knotts


Marvin (Shake) Tiller - Wide Receiver - Miami Bucks - Semi-Tough (1977)
Played by Kris Kristofferson


Joe Pendleton - Quarterback - Los Angeles Rams - Heaven Can Wait (1978)
Played by Warren Beatty


Phillip Elliott - Wide Receiver - North Dallas Bulls - North Dallas Forty (1979)
Played by Nick Nolte


Flash Gordon - Quarterback - New York Jets - Flash Gordon (1980)
Played by Sam Jones 


Rod Tidwell - Wide Receiver - Arizona Cardinals - Jerry Maguire (1996)
Played by Cuba Gooding, Jr.


"Steamin" Willie Beamen - Quarterback - Miami Sharks - Any Given Sunday (1999)
Played by Jamie Foxx


Shane Falco - Quarterback - Washington Sentinels - The Replacements (2000)
Played by Keanu Reeves

Wait a sec! How'd this card get in here? Looks like Uncle Rico's football dreams haven't ended. Apparently he dug out an old football card and taped his face and name onto it. Count this as a bonus chase card!  


Rico Dynamite - Quarterback - In His Dreams - Napoleon Dynamite (2004)

That's all for this wax pack! Hope you enjoyed the fantasy film football cards. A special thanks to my pal Mike (Aparofan) for some scans and a few fine suggestions for this post!
