A guy says that his female cousin (whom we haven't seen) invited him to come see her stripping, and that he doesn't find the thought off-putting. That's all.

I guess, since the main characters are happy. I didn't feel uplifted, but that's probably because I don't get the mindset of boxers and boxing fans (sure, it's hockey, but it's really boxing).

Use of cocaine. Multiple uses, and references to abuse of, prescription painkillers. People smoke cigarettes and chew chewing tobacco throughout the film.

I don't know if I'd call it gore, but there's a lot of blood, flying teeth and some badly beat up faces.

Slow motion close-up takes of bloody teeth flying through the air and landing after being knocked out. Bloody mouths with all red exposed teeth as well as gaps from missing teeth.

No, but people are subjected to rather extreme violence, including when they're already down. It was very nearly too much for me to watch already pretty broken faces being punched over and over again.

Doug and Eva say they "only made out" when Eva reveals that she already has a boyfriend. The boyfriend finds out, and Eva breaks up with him to be with Doug instead.

Doug's friend Pat uses many sexual hand motions pretty much whenever he's onscreen. A majority of the characters also use obscene language, like the f-word and crude insults, throughout the movie.

near the start of the film, it is shown that the protagonist and his family are jewish. (with last name Glatt)
later, when he becomes a hockey star, a fan is shown holding a sign saying "Glatt is Hebrew for F**k You"

SO MUCH sexual content. Multiple graphic sex scenes, both heterosexual and homosexual. Men read p***o mags and the viewers see a close-up of an image of uncensored female genitalia. Tons of crude sexual jokes and gestures, including homosexual and homophobic ones.
