Pain heals, chicks dig scars, glory last forever...It's been an honor to share the field of battle with you - Used that at my husband's funeral.
"Can I swear?" Proceeds to drop 10 F bombs in a minute. Absolutely love Keanu! 😂
Keanu Reeves may be one of the most universally loved and respected Hollywood film actors. He is just so fantastic.
"if I give you a dollar, you can keep most of the change, cuz all I really want is a QUARTERBACK" 😂
He remembers and credits people the movie crew/actors/doubles from decades ago. That tells you something about the man.
It's so nice to see Keanu so relaxed with the boys that he's relaxed enough in his speech to swear just like the boys do too. It's quite the vibe.
I have to thank you guys for getting Keanu to talk about The Replacements for a good 15 minutes. I LOVE that movie, it's so freaking good on multiple levels & he absolutely kills it. That made my day.
Number 16 in your programs, number 1 in your hearts…..Falco, Falco, Falco
The Replacements is a movie I can watch all the time... go Flaco!!!🎉
True story: when they filmed the Replacements, they used my high school for their practices, Glen Burnie High School. I was going into my senior year and got to watch them practicing. Never saw Keanu tho. Still was pretty awesome. They donated a brand new scoreboard for our field.
