Gotta agree with Clint on this one... frank, you're thinking of Jim Varney, not Jim Carroll... and it wasn't basketball diaries, it was Ernest goes to summer camp... and the movie was way better than the book...

Jim Carroll wrote Basketball Diaries before he was known for his music.

The book was far better than the movie.

When “Catholic Boy” came out, my buddy Al highly recommended “Basketball Diaries” but I was too lazy to pick up a copy. But at least I listened to the album.
