Fun fact: all the constitution says about the speaker of the house is "The House of Representatives shall choose their speaker". It doesn't list any requirements, meaning that the speaker doesn't have to be a congressman or even a US citizen. It also doesn't say that the speaker must be a human. I'm writing a script for a new Air Bud movie based on this, don't steal it.

Every movie in the _Air Bud_ series and spinoffs so far (taken verbatim from Wikipedia): • _Air Bud_ (1997) - Josh meets an abused Golden Retriever and finds out that he can play basketball. • _Air Bud: Golden Receiver_ (1998) - Josh's Golden Retriever learns to play American football. • _Air Bud: World Pup_ (2000) - Josh discovers that Buddy's ballplaying skills apply to soccer. • _Air Bud: Seventh Inning Fetch_ (2002) - Buddy makes the baseball team and becomes a star player. • _Air Bud: Spikes Back_ (2003) - Buddy tackles volleyball. • _Air Buddies_ (2006) - Buddy and Molly's offspring work together to help each other while attempting to rescue their parents. • _Snow Buddies_ (2008) - The offspring of Buddy and Molly go on an Alaskan adventure. • _Space Buddies_ (2009) - The Buddies tag along for a school field trip to the space museum and accidentally walk aboard a rocket ship. • _Santa Buddies_ (2009) - The Buddies team up with Puppy Paws, the son of Santa Paws, to end the melting of a magical icicle threatening Christmas Eve. • _The Search for Santa Paws_ (2010) - When Santa is in trouble, Paws has to save Christmas with the help of some friends. • _Spooky Buddies_ (2011) - The Buddies are in a new adventure when Halloween hits Fernfield.Treasure Buddies_ (2012) - The Buddies find themselves on an Indiana Jones style adventure. • _Santa Paws 2: The Santa Pups_ (2012) - When the Christmas spirit begins to disappear, Mrs. Claus and the Santa Pups must race to save Christmas around the world. • _Super Buddies_ (2013) - After acquiring rings that grant them superpowers, the Buddies must use them to stop a villainous alien dictator.

Winning a children's championship soccer game 5. Winning a children's championship baseball game 6. Winning a children's championship volleyball game 7. Assisting in the capture of multiple criminals 8. Being kidnapped three times (four if you count both Snively and Josh's kidnappings) His children's accomplishments include (as far as I am aware): 1. Winning a dogsled race 2. Going to the moon 3. Saving the lives of a Cosmonaut and his dog 4. Performing necessary repairs on their spaceship 5. Saving Christmas 6. Ghostbusting 7. Assisting in the defeat of an evil warlock, thus saving their entire town (and possibly world), using the power of God 8. Assisting in the discovery of ancient Egyptian treasure 9. Acquiring super powers to become the Puppy Avengers (not their official name) 10. Assisting in the defeat of an alien warlord 11. Being kidnapped multiple times 12. Assisting in the capture of multiple criminals

We could consider whether Air Bud is actually a moral fable that tells the true but lamentable story that privilege and social status corrupt. Of course the privileged upper middle class white kid would get the dog instead of his low-status neighbor. Of course Snively is powerless to have his one friend in life and one source of income removed. In choosing this movie, Weinstein is telling it like it is, knowing that power dynamics can crush those who are compromised, and allow the victors to lead a life without consequences.

'ALL'? I thought it was about the Clarence and the Supreme Court? AKA it is the backbone of the American legal system, but yet a sitting judge is flaunting the rules, despite before, saying how important the rule of law was and no matter what was sticking to them. But he was let off...well I guess there are rules against what he did technically, but nothing to hold him liable or mechanism to remove him. That's what I thought anyway.

The Air Buds movies broke me. After sitting through a bunch with my son, we now have a strict “no talking animals” movies in our house (animated animal excluded, of course). Any movie where an animal on screen has talking lines - that isn’t part of some short drugged out montage - is not allowed to be watched on family movie night.
