Listen, we're not here to tell you what sort of movies to like (even if it's Field of Dreams). And we certainly aren't here to take potshots at a film about fallen soldiers and their mourning families. We say a lot dumb sh*t here, but that's not our style. That said, I think we can all agree that LaDainian Tomlinson starring in a new faith-based NASCAR movie inspired by the Rascal Flatts' “Bless the Broken Road” is a strange one, no matter which way you splice it. Don't believe us? Just check out the trailer below, which is some WTH(eck) worthy stuff:
Directed by Harold Cronk, who also helmed lighthearted fare like God's Not Dead and God's Not Dead 2, God Bless the Broken Road—in case you were unclear on who or what was gracing the tarmac in that aforementioned Rascal Flatts tune—also stars former American Idol winner Jordin Sparks and is set to hit theaters on Sept. 21.

Nick Offerman is your father's definition of a “man's man.” He builds canoes and likes scotch. He has a beard, and when he doesn't, he has a mustache. In other words, he's exactly the kind of guy you might expect would like a movie about a Iowa farmer with some serious daddy issues and a thing for baseball.

Here, have a listen (everything kicks off around the 35-minute mark):

If you lost your headphones (AGAIN), here's the transcript, per For The Win:
I made a quick list of just absolutely ridiculous things about this film. First of all, Kevin Costner is ostensibly an Iowa farmer. He wears no belt. There are so many glaring..

Welcome to another edition of The Grind, where the saying, “Be careful what you wish for,” has never rung more true. For years, we waited for Phil Mickelson to join Twitter, hoping this King of Content would arm himself with another platform to share his antics. And when that day finally arrived, it was glorious. At least, initially. Just look at this perfect first tweet!

But then it became painfully obvious that Mickelson’s motivation was to promote THE MATCH with Tiger Woods, who made the Thanksgiving weekend clash of golf legends official hours later. There was some awkward “banter” between the two, but even worse were some of Mickelson’s other ensuing tweets.
