I’ve been on an Adam Sandler kick the past week and wound up getting sucked into the surprisingly rewatchable The Longest Yard, which I probably haven’t watched more than 5 minutes of since it came out. It is peak 2005 with Sandler at the tail end of his white hot streak, Nelly at the height of his powers, and cameos from a somewhat recently retired Michael Irvin, Stone Cold Steve Austin, D12, Big Boy, and of course friend of the blog William Fitchner. What really makes it scream 2005 though is the fire flames soundtrack from Nelly himself in a song that was a YouTube hype video staple back in the day, “Here Comes the Boom.”
