Murderball
Jul. 1st, 2005 04:28 pmDamn, Murderball looks good.
It's a documentary about people who play wheelchair/quad rugby (originally called murderball, but changed to a more corporate-tournament-sponsor-friendly name). As one of the players says, playing quad rugby in the Paralympics isn't like the Special Olympics: "We're not doing this for a hug -- we're going for a fucking gold medal." There's an interview with a world-class murderball player (also a star of the documentary) on Nerve, too.
I'll have to see it when it hits Tampa at the end of July.
