I decided to check out Reggie's entire film carreer thus far:
Richie Rich
Naked Gun
BASEketball
The Benchwarmers
Summer of Sam
Bad Day on the Block
Of all these movies I've only seen Naked Gun and parts of BASEketball.
John Kruk was in The Fan.
I'll keep searching the RBIers and get a nice list of film appearances.
the baseball (softball) episode of the simpsons has a ton of RBIers. Straw, Canseco, Boggs, Ozzie, Clemens, and mattingly and others from the arcade.
See this page (http://dee-nee.com/rbi/misc.shtml) (scroll down a ways) for a good start.
There's an actual RBI Baseball message board at IMDB, why would there be one there? All the RBI games have message boards there for some reason. None of them have any topics under them, I'm not surprised.
Could it be that guys like Reggie, have appeared in a few movies, and they were also on the game?
I still find it odd to find RBI Baseball boards on a movie site....
IMDB also includes video games.
Someone that is already registered at IMDB should post a comment and point people here.

Unfortunately, IMDB purges old/inactive threads during regular maintenance procedures, so it wouldn't last very long. It's one of many reasons I stopped reading their boards.
GameFAQs does something similar, which is why I stopped pimping the site there even though there was decent activity...
I just signed up at Gamefaqs a few days ago (again). The first time I signed up was around December 2000. I had 1,011 active messages posted at one point. The next day it was down to 860-something. There are still quite a few topics for the GOOD nes games. None there for RBI Baseball either though.
Heh, I didn't know IMDB included video games. Well I DID, I see and have posted under lots of them, but I thought they were just ones that had cartoons, tv series, or movies about them, like Super Mario 1-3, World, Kart, etc.

Your name wouldn't happen to be Todd (http://forums.dee-nee.com/index.php?topic=5439.0), would it?

If so, I apologize for causing your suicide.
Nope I'm not Todd. I used to be LordBob but it wouldn't let me sign in with my old username and password so I changed it a bit. I dunno why I even signed up again...I barely post anything there.
