who should play josh hamiliton

[funk51]

talks are in the works to make a movie of josh hamiliton's messed up life. casey aflaff is being considered. i think cole hauser is the obivious choice. you be the judge.

[gracie bjj]

he had a bad coke/alcohol problem for awhile right? i saw something about it on espn one time

[ChristopherA]

Dude was smoking crack like nobody's business

[King Shizzo]

Yeah Cole is a dead ringer.

[Hulkotron]

Probably ought to go with Lee Priest.

[Irongrip400]

Cole, always thought he was cool since Dazed and Confused, but never got a chance to capitalize. Maybe this will be his big break.

i liked him in that cave movie. josh has some good stats since he cleaned up,no one ever thought he would  make it after his rocky beginning was reduced to working at a batting cage.

hauser was good in higher learning to.

Well who ever they choose needs to be in decent shape. Hamilton definitely has genetics on his side in terms of strength, power, and physique. On his initial comeback, ESPN mag.  wrote about how everyone would stop whatever they were doing to watch Hamilton consistantly crush pitches 450ft+ in batting practice. They also spoke about the size/strength of his forearm equating to lightning quick adjustments on pitches, but he doesn't train them directly.

One of my favorites too.

[ChristopherA]

I am sure he's made a killing money wise from all the roles he's played. Oscar winning or not, he prob has a kickass life. Higher Learning lol what's he say to Micheal Rappaport when he thinks he's a querr. "I will beat you to the fucking ground,boy."

He's gotta have the quickest bat in baseball.  As close to a natural as it gets.

Just a genetic freak when it comes to baseball. Hand-eye cordination, bat speed, everything. To have lost all the time he did to addiction and still be kicking ass is amazing

Yeah you can always tell the naturally gifted players.  It doesn't even look like Hamilton puts any effort into his swing, yet the ball flies off of his bat.

One of the best natural talents to ever play the game. I'd like to see him move to first base so he will stop getting injured. The guy is like 6'4 250. He shouldn't be running around the outfield catching balls.

liam neeson woudl be great.   

The epic story of a man stopping at nothing to get back his baseball bat and crack cocaine, kidnapped by the Albanian mafia.
