	"World's Longest Yard Sale"... What's It Like? - from Jim and Lynnette's Fun Times Guide
		The "Longest Yard Sale" began in 1987 as a way to lure travelers away from the ever-popoular Interstate 40 and I-75 and into the rural communities.
		You can jump right into the World's Longest Yard Sale from wherever you are along the way, or start at either end of the official route.
		While the bulk of the vendors participating in the World's Longest Yard Sale DON'T have clothes for sale, you'll quickly notice that all of the "locals" try to jump on the yard sale bandwagon by having their own family yard sales at the same time.

		The Longest Yard was a 1974 movie about inmates at a prison who play American football against their guards.
		With seconds to go and the prisoners down by five points, the ball is in the prisoners' possession on the guards' one-yard line, the "longest yard" of the title.

		The Longest Yard certainly seemed like a promising idea, and though it does manage to generate some laughs along the way, it’s ultimately another in the ever-growing ranks of remakes that shouldn’t have been remade.

		Three weeks ago I saw "The Longest Yard," and before I left for the Cannes Film Festival, I did an advance taping of an episode of "Ebert & Roeper" on which I gave a muted thumbs-up to Richard Roeper's scornful thumbs-down.
		Indeed after my immersion in the films of Cannes, I can hardly bring myself to return to "The Longest Yard" at all, since it represents such a limited idea of what a movie can be and what movies are for.
		His mentor is a former prisoner, played by Burt Reynolds, who starred in Robert Aldrich's original "Longest Yard" (1974) and whose character this time is described in my notes as the Heisman Trophy Winner of 1955.

		Anyone who's old enough to remember when The Longest Yard was first released (1974) will recall that it launched a whole generation of sports films.

		The Longest Yard was never intended to be a comedy; parts of it are downright scary and violent, without a trace of humor.

	'Longest Yard' (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The story still works: A washed-up and disgraced NFL quarterback is sent to a backwater prison where a manipulative football-fanatic warden forces him to organize a convict team to scrimmage against his sadistic semi-pro guards.

		The Longest Yard is the story of pro quarterback Paul Crewe (Sandler) and former college champion and coach Nate Scarboro (Reynolds) who are doing time in the same prison.
		The Longest Yard lives or dies with its physical humor, a form of recent comedy I like to call slapstick sadism.

	IGN: Longest Yard, The Review
		The first is the fact that the film is for all intents and purposes the first thoroughly modern sports movie; it could have been made in 1984 or even '94 and would likely have been the same.
		But overall, The Longest Yard is a pretty straightforward comedic adventure, one that will no doubt engender fandom on the basis of Sandler's previous exercise with the pig skin (The Waterboy), but deserve to be counted among the actor's best movies.
		Ultimately, Sandler's Longest Yard is a worthy remake and companion piece to the Reynolds film; while many audiences may still be celebrating The Revenge of the Sith or anticipating a trip to Madagascar, Sandler and co. execute a comic quarterback sneak, scoring one of the summer's unlikeliest victories before the competition is even properly underway.

		EVEN without a grasp of the wacky institution that is American Football, it was difficult not to like Robert Aldrich's 1974 movie "The Longest Yard" (aka "The Mean Machine").
		It was a compelling and joyously irreverent affair centering on ex-MVP quarterback Paul "Wrecking" Crewe, (Burt Reynolds), who had been thrown out of the game for cheating.
		"The Longest Yard" (2005) is also guilty of some questionable casting.

	IGN: The Longest Yard (2005) Review
		The original film, starring Burt Reynolds as an imprisoned footballer leading his fellow inmates to victory, is considered one of the greatest sports films of all time.
		And while this newest version of The Longest Yard might not be the best Sandler film in the past few years (or even the best Sandler football film), it's still an enjoyable experience that warrants a purchase on DVD.
		But The Longest Yard doesn't have the restriction, and therefore the filmmakers were able to capture a realistic look and feel of football.

	The DVD Journal \| Quick Reviews: The Longest Yard (2005)
		Like Dozen, The Longest Yard is about horrible men finding a little redemption as they bond on a hopeless mission — with Reynolds in the Lee Marvin role as the cynical, mordantly funny leader who thinks rules are for sissies.
		Now, with that out of the way: The brand-new remake of "The Longest Yard" is no "Longest Yard," if that makes any sense, but it's a definite crowd-pleaser and a perfectly fun night at the movies.
		Putting an amiable but sort-of-toothless Adam Sandler in the Reynolds role (and a frail-looking Reynolds in the role of veteran prisoner Nate Scarborough), the remake shaves most of the raw edges off the original to create an almost family-friendly PG-13 entertainment.

		Walk The Longest Yard with no expectations whatsoever, and you will leave the theatre a happy man! Peter Segal serves a classic Adam Sandler on the platter, in his ‘popcorn flick’ version of the 1974 film of the same name.
		The last half hour of The Longest Yard is wholly composed of the football match alias the “biggest ass-kicking fiesta of the year” in Caretaker’s words.
		The soundtrack of The Longest Yard courtesy Lynyrd Skynyrd, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, CCR, AC/DC, and Nelly, will not escape your attention, as familiar numbers will roll in and out of scenes and make the film a tad more enjoyable than the timepass ordeal that it is.
