The Replacements (film)
''The Replacements'' is a 2000 American and British sports comedy film directed by Howard Deutch. It stars Keanu Reeves, Gene Hackman, Brooke Langton, Rhys Ifans, Jon Favreau, and Jack Warden in his last film appearance. The movie was loosely based on the 1987 NFL strike, specifically the Washington Redskins, who won all three replacement games without any of their regular players and went on to win Super Bowl XXII. Though the film is a story of the replacement players, the Falco–Martel quarterback controversy is quite similar to the one in the post-strike Washington controversy between Doug Williams and Jay Schroeder. Hackman narrated the episode of NFL Network's '' America's Game: The Super Bowl Champions'' devoted to that team. Shane Falco, born in Appleton, Wisconsin, was a QB for the Washington Redskins from 1983 to 1987. Plot An unnamed fictional pro football league is hit with a players' strike with four games left in the season. Washington Sentinels owner Edward O ...

What's My Age Again?
"What's My Age Again?" is a song by American rock band Blink-182. It was released in April 1999 as the lead single from the group's third studio album, ''Enema of the State'' (1999), released through MCA Records. "What's My Age Again?" shares writing credits between the band's guitarist Tom DeLonge and bassist Mark Hoppus, but Hoppus was the primary composer of the song. It was the band's first single to feature drummer Travis Barker. A mid-tempo pop punk song, "What's My Age Again?" is memorable for its distinctive, arpeggiated guitar intro. The song lyrically revolves around the onset of age and maturity, and the failure to implement changes in one's behavior. Hoppus declined to label the song as autobiographical, but admitted that he spent his twenties acting immature. The trio recorded the song with producer Jerry Finn. It was originally titled "Peter Pan Complex", an allusion to the pop-psychology concept, but the record label found the reference obscure and adjusted the ti ...
