Sports and one night stands
Players

A New York sportswriter Mack (Gina Rodriguez) and her male BFF Adam (Damon Wayans Jr.) have been plotting one night stand “plays” for years. Until, you guessed it, Mack catches feelings for her latest “score.” Intended as a date night romcom the sports loving guys-guys will embrace, reviews are decidedly mixed.  On one end, “It’s as much a story of love among friends as it is of any couple, and a handful of good gags and great performances keep the whole thing steaming along.” The New York Times.  On the other: “..a middling and at times mawkish film not only makes us hate the game, but also its players.” (Variety)
