"Playbook" is a searing Brian Mills Valentine to sports. Sweaty sports, like soccer and basketball, where guys have to use jockstraps and no one needs to explain his way into a scene, instead diving into it with the fervor only this director can bring to such an epic. And yes, it's an epic with only nine players. Then again, so is every baseball team, so we're right on track.

First up is soccer. Tiny light-featured Kyle Quinn is on the team and hairy he-man Dirk Jager coaches it. When Kyle comes to the locker room to discuss his future with the coach, he finds tree-sized Dirk soaping up in the shower, the lather and water bumping down all those abs. The shower ends quickly because Dirk is more interested in sniffing jockstrap. This gets him hard, so Kyle gets to watch him beat off too, and there's a lot to watch considering the size of Dirk's cock! Once Dirk is discovered, he admits that it's his father who wants him to quit, but since he's 18, Dirk demands to know what he wants. "I want this to go away," he says, unzipping his pants to reveal his own boner. For a while they handle themselves separately, but when Dirk stands over Kyle's face, it's less an invitation than an order to start blowing him. Kyle is a snappy sucker, able to inhale the whole length offered to him without breaking a sweat. Things are particularly spicy when Dirk helps keep everything very wet by drizzling spit into Kyle's cock-filled mouth. Dirk, again not asking but demanding, sits his hairy ass on Kyle's face to get it munched, and Kyle is just as spry, starting with almost a light tickle and then hunkering down for delivery with his whole face. Throw in a bit of nut-nibbling and Dirk cums on Kyle's chest.

Dirk then spends a few precious moments sucking Kyle before he's shooting too. The music then grinds into a faster gear as Dirk jams his face into Kyle's ass, shoving the kid into the shower by doing so. Things couldn't be hotter, not with Kyle's tattooed lower back shoved forward by Dirk's graying beard. Wrong! They get a lot hotter when Dirk actually fucks Kyle. Dirk is a quiet tower of power, slamming at Kyle with savage force. From the onset, he gets in as deep as possible, and from there, he doesn't give Kyle a chance to catch his breath. It's Titan-style nasty, as macho as topping can be. From missionary on a bench, Dirk takes Kyle back to the shower, bending him down over the tile to hammer him on all-fours. Dirk's commanding posture adds even more to the steaminess, but it's his unrelenting rhythm that really gives the scene its punishing guts. The power-blasting returns to the bench for a bit of time before Dirk wraps a paw around Kyle's neck and lets him up to cum. He then sits on Kyle's chest for his second blast.

Team laundry man Leed Scott has a perfect reason to be playing with everyone's dirty unmentionables. In fact, one jock doesn't even make it into the rinse cycle with the towels. He keeps it for himself and uses it to get hard. This ripped brunet cutie with the semi-hairy chest sports a full erection when he's caught by janitor Leo Giamani, a smooth beefcake with a chiseled body and bearded face. His hearty veined cock is catnip for Leed, who sucks it methodically and slowly to keep Leo always tingling. It's a ravishing oral workout, very different from the heaving action around it, and every bit as stiffening. Leed even controls Leo's face-fucking tendencies by grabbing his balls and reminding him who is in charge. Once both have cum, they leave the laundry room for a bigger playing space.

Now Leo gets to show what he's made of, using his mouthwatering figure to do battle with Leed's ass. Actually, Leed wants to be conquered, pushing back at his top with the same force Leo is sending forward, but Leed eventually calms down and gives Leo the chance to shine. With a series of full in-and-out strokes, he's a terrifying top. Leed rides Leo greedily, making sure each bounce slurps in every available inch of cock. Leed is incapable of being on the inactive list. Leo has another opportunity to steal the energy when he fucks Leed on a table. It's back to those huge thrusts, but Leed seems to adore the total depth. Leo doesn't have to fuck him long here before Leed cums. Oh, and if you're wondering what sport brought these two together, it's basketball. There's an idle ball parked near Leed's head during the final position of the scene. It's sports night, fans!

Certainly every hardcore athlete is entitled to a massage. Strapping giant Alex Baresi shows up for his rubdown. The masseur is hairy daddy Frank Phillip, who is training fully-bearded stud Xavier St. Jude, although it's a curious operation these guys have going since both are overly clothed. However, once Frank gets going on Alex's legs, both lose their jackets, down to tight shirts and tighter jeans. Lucky Alex soon has four hands working him and he adds a fifth, his own, to help out at his cock. Alex and Frank kiss so passionately they suck the breath from each other, already in serious hyper-drive. The massage is soon over and Alex is on all-fours sucking Frank while Xavier plays around with his mountain-sized ass. Frank's face fits nicely between the cheeks and a spit-filled rimjob is as energetic as the serious gagging deep-throat Alex gives Frank. Alex roars and snorts through it, but Frank keeps him at his pubes as much as possible. These three hirsute works of art all cum on Alex's chest and then he rolls up off the massage table to make out with Xavier while Frank gets a condom and goes pushing into Xavier's ass. His yelps at instantly taking all of Frank are blunted by Alex shoving his cock just as deeply into Xavier's mouth.

The only blowing style anyone wants here is to-the-balls, and Xavier works hard to make it constant on Alex. Frank is an animal in Xavier's hole, plowing into him with titanic force, wearing a mighty mean look on his face that promises brutal behavior the whole time. Frank doesn't let up even when Alex sits on the ground to blow Xavier, still getting fucked. This means that Frank is not only sailing at top speed into Xavier, but he's ramming Xavier's cock into Alex's mouth with the same power. Frank gleams with sweat when he briefly fucks Alex, but then it's Xavier who gets to lead a three-way fucking by barreling into Frank, who is in Alex. He doesn't have Frank's inherent strength, but he's nonetheless a mighty leader for this scene highlight. It's what gets all three to shoot again.

Boyish Kameron Scott is a huge fan of basketball player Diesel Washington, a mammoth muscled black man who bears more than a passing resemblance to b-ball legend Shaquille O'Neal. At the office, Kameron can't even work, reading a sports magazine and listening to the game. Unfortunately, Diesel fouls up what could have been a game-winning shot, but Kameron's dreams of being with Diesel are anything but over. When Kameron finally gets to meet the dejected superstar, he gets to actually play some one-on-one with him. Yes, actual basketball. In any other movie, this sequence might be the butchest thing on film, but the sex in "Playbook" is so overpowering that it can't even compete! Diesel invites Kameron to hang out with him, leading up to the eventual match of taller-than-imaginable Diesel and twinky Kameron. It's the latter who takes the first available moment to push Diesel against the wall and dart for his cock, barely buried in a jockstrap. Diesel is so big and so muscled he's almost inhuman, but Kameron is focused on his cock only. Amazingly, Kameron can deep-throat the impressive piece, and he gives Diesel a wizardly blowjob. He can even take a face-fuck from Diesel, a man so colossal a mere swing of his hips could push Kameron to the floor. Diesel may be the camera's centerpiece, but it's Kameron's spunk and talent that make the oral part of the scene so inspiring. Kameron chugs for dear life over and over, never letting Diesel down. I think I have my MVP! Rather surprisingly, Diesel takes some time to blow Kameron as well. He's feisty and noisy, with saliva dripping down his chin as he gobbles at top speed. Kameron looks as though he could cum at any second, but he waits until sucking Diesel again to unload, also taking one to the chest from his hero.

Diesel lifts Kameron off the floor and stands him on a chair so he can orally attack his ass. Kameron's smooth bubble-butt receives an aching and very potent rimjob from Diesel. It's every bit as wanting as Kameron's blowjob. The whole time, Diesel maintains a ramrod erection, soon put to better use inside Kameron. Diesel tucks it in slowly, but Kameron is soon ready for him. He better be, because Diesel doesn't fuck with anything less than full-depth thrusts teeming with strength. At one point, Diesel again lifts Kameron into the air, his cock still inside him, and fucks him feet off the ground! Kameron has to wrap his legs around Diesel as Diesel pulls Kameron's arms hard, but the position is superb, using the differences in their sizes to glorious effect. As if that's not clever enough, Diesel puts Kameron on a cooler to fuck him on his back, but puts a basketball under Kameron just to make this new position even trickier. Like an obedient rag doll, Kameron goes along with every lusty thought Diesel conceives and moans in delight with every thrust. Diesel is so full of power that Kameron can't stay in one position on his back as he's constantly being pushed around the room. No doubt these guys could go on for hours, but Kameron cums with Diesel thrusting and then Diesel climaxes big all over Kameron's torso.

"Playbook" definitely equates sex and sports in terms of endorphin release. The raging sex these men have is infused with almost superhuman vivacity, much like any sports player hitting his or her peak through sheer will and talent. With work this dedicated, every man scores, goes into overtime and scores again!
