They play hard, recall their childhood games played against tenement walls in New York and Boston, Chicago and Detroit, and feel the poignancy of their dwindling ranks. In their own words, they are &#8220;a dying breed.&#8221; They tell wonderfully embellished stories of injuries and heart attacks suffered on the court, sex after 70, and fortunes won and lost. Viewers hear a stream of banter, bad jokes and macho challenges.<\/p>\n<p>Running time: 14 minutes.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\t\t<div class='et_slidecontent'>\n\t\t\t<p>Purchase the video on demand <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/ondemand\/fasteddie\">from Vimeo.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>To order a DVD of this film, the cost is $9.95, plus $4 shipping and handling.\nTo purchase the film via PayPal send an email to Sherman.Pictures@florentinefilms.com.
