One thing I love about the Oscars is that you get a chance to learn of film that may have not known about or have seen prior to watching the Academy Awards. In this film, the Manassas Tigers of North Memphis, who had never won a playoff game in their 110-year history, win a playoff game and learn a great deal about life at the same time.
A big congrats to all Oscars winers!
