Factual error: The movie takes place during a single NFL season. In the beginning of the movie, when Brandon is still in Las Vegas, the paper he is using to pick games shows Seattle playing New Orleans. Later in the movie, still the regular season, Seattle and New Orleans are playing again. They would not play each other twice during the regular season.

Directed by: D.J. Caruso
Starring: Matthew McConaughey, Al Pacino, Rene Russo, Armand Assante
Factual error: When Armand Assante's character confronts Brandon on his bike, it is right near the end of the NFL season, which means it is late December or early January. The trees in New York City would not be green like they are.

Walter Abrams: My father, five foot, arms like this... he had a cock like a Hebrew National.
Walter Abrams: I even looked at him the wrong way... he smacked across the room like Jake LaMotta.
Walter Abrams: By the time I was five, he yelled at me so much, I thought my name was Asshole.
Walter Abrams: Know what you know, and know what you don't know. And know that I gotta know everything you know as soon as you know it... or sooner.
Walter Abrams: Stats are not enough, you need a voice! These are gamblers ready to risk what they can't afford for what they can't have, you're selling the world's rarest commodity: certainty, in an uncertain world.
