Gus and his nerdy buddies, Richie and Clark, are scouted by a miilionaire nerd, Mel, who wants to form a baseball team and compete with the meanest Little League teams in the state. A stellar ballplayer, Gus becomes a role model for nerds and outcasts everywhere. But when his fans learn that Gus, himself, was once a school bully, they feel outraged and betrayed, until Gus takes extraordinary steps to win back their admiration and trust.

I've been a Rob Schneider apologist and a David Spade excusist (that's probably not a word), but no more. There's no forgiving Deuce Bigalow 2, and there's no denying that David Spade hasn't been relevant as anything other than a frequent guest at the Playboy Mansion since Farley bit it.
