Case #0031 - Dads love Pitch Perfect because it is a Sports Movie

Case #0031 -  Mel cannot think of a single sports movie plot to reference due to their brain being melted by work and insane shit happening in their personal life (not even surf’s up, the worlds best sports movie). Anti-counsel Ally dismisses the severity of Nodes. Judge Barbara Lynn reveals her chore song, and it’s NOT what you would expect. Angel of Death Ben Platt silently judges Mel through Zoom from behind Anti-Counsel Ally’s shoulder. NOTE - To save Mel's ass, here are some relevant sports movies to back up her argument: sports movie where people go to jail or are in jail: The Longest Yard With adam sandler, Mystery Alaska, Cars, that part in Riverdale when Archie says “the epic highs and lows of high school football” while in a prison yardsports movies where the coach and the new talent don’t get along: Cars, Remember the Titans, Rudy, Surf's Upsports movies where someone gets sidelined by an injury: Rocky 2, The Blind Side, Million Dollar Baby, The Might Ducks, Surfs Up, The Rookie, The Natural, Friday Night Lights, Any Given Sunday, Sea Biscuitsports movies with dad propaganda: The Blind Side (actually, its mom propaganda), The Mighty Ducks, The Rookie, The SandlotThank’s for showing up to jury duty! Court will be back in session at the end of September!  TW: Matthew morrison, getting waterboarded, kidnapping, Mel accidentally forgetting Bologna Barb’s singing, bullying, mention of suicide Follow us on tumblr (https://raccooncourt.tumblr.com/) and instagram (@raccooncourtpod), or you can send a long form memo to our email ([email protected]).Album art by @sansh_pixel on FiverrToday’s podcast includes soundbites from Pitch Perfect (2012) and the TV shows Glee and Jessie.
