    carried in the arms of cheerleaders

    That was my first thought as well. Not sure why that was needed.

    I watched this and actually really enjoyed it, but I don't understand how this story would take place in 1999 in the book... I'm assuming there were major changes to the actual plot aside from just changing the time period. Also got me to do a bunch of research on Robert Moses, which was a name I was completely unfamiliar with.
