I wouldn’t say it’s a shitty thing to say (it is mostly true after all), but it’s a silly reason to not watch a movie that has basically nothing to do with that.
Also it is a pretty massive generalization too I guess.
Football players, just like everyone other group of people, are mostly shitty, but some are cool.
My guess is that their a slightly higher percentage of shitty since they have to beat the shit out of other people to get ahead, not to mention they get the shit beat out of them.
But it’s still a generalization that’s probably too broad.
I didn’t get into exact percentages.
