whackiness

The good news is that Semi-Pro is Will Ferrell's funniest basketball comedy. Unfortunately it's his fourth funniest movie set in the world of sports, after car racing (Talladega Nights), soccer (Kicking & Screaming) and figure skating (Blades of Glory). No doubt the men's field hockey community is waiting on bended stick for Ferrell to grace their sport with his distinct brand of whackiness.
