    I went to the private screening they did for the movie up here in Vancouver. Amazing piece of film, even though it's not fully finished yet. Definitely a must-watch for all whenever it comes out.

    Nick, here's hoping someone with deep pockets will finance you guys. I've gave whatever I can at the event.

    Thanks waterboy, glad you enjoyed it. The support means a lot! Keep spreading the word, the story is too good not to get out there. Just a matter of time

    The hell is your problem? Jay has accomplished more in this life than most of us, and it wasn't handed to him either. Why don't you fuck off.

    Maybe for you that's the case, but for American's it is a miraculous story. He went from Sunday League to the Premier League, if he wasn't a star at least he was there.

    @ussoccer26

    Wow, get your fucking head out of your arse. DeMerit was decent, but he was only a very average footballer. To compare his story to something like Rocky is an absolute joke! And honestly, if yo don't agree with that then you're seriously deluded!
