Directed by former Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst, The Longshots also features performances from Tasha Smith (Why Did I Get Married), Jill Marie Jones (The Perfect Holiday), Dash Mihok Kiss Kiss Bang Bang), Matt Craven (Crimson Tide) and Garrett Morris (“Saturday Night Live”).  The DVD will include commentary from Director Fred Durst, 20 deleted scenes and much more.

    When I was in school I had a teacher who inspired me to go further with my studies-unfortunately couldn’t attend college FT but did take some classes needed to help me out a bit in the job field.
