I saw the trailer last weekend and was underwhelmed.  Got me thinking though if I would be pumped up as a Browns fan or if I would like the story to use a fictional Panther team instead.  

 

Anyone else heard anything about the movie?  Seems quiet on talk radio about it also, I would think they would be talking it up.

I am not a Kevin Costner fan.   The plot:  Without having read or seen anything about it---A losing team, a losing coach and a GM struggle to not only save the franchise from losing, but from moving.  It is a team beloved by the blue-collar Dawg Pound fans, but one that has failed miserably.  And little Timmy's dying wish is, if he can't get that kidney transplant, for the Browns to hoist the Lombardi. Kevin Costner plays a wheelin' and dealin' GM, standing on his last leg with his back against the wall, as he navigates through the draft like Blackbeard around the outer banks.  And Like Blackbeard, Costner is an unpopular Swashbuckler, a free-spirited trend setter, working against the grain and all of humanity until his values are realized.  No treasure chest, but he manages to dig a Lombardi from the sand of doubt--a trophy buried by naysayers and skeptics long ago.  And Timmy gets that kidney transplant during halftime of the Super Bowl, where the Browns beat the Seahawks on an incredible play by Costner's controversial #1 draft pick.

      Damn back to 10th. I only caught the last 5 minutes but some of those 3's were horrible lol. In that close of game you can't be launching those many hail mary's when you could be chipping away from the foul line. I guess no one wanted to get in the paint and didn't trust the refs to give them the calls maybe? Gonna watch the highlights to get a better idea of the flow of the game

      I agree.  The Big 12 is a good conference, and he is the swinging dick in that conference.  If Bill Self retires, that sets Kansas back a bit, and Arizona moves even further ahead as the best team in that conference.  Arizona can crush west coast recruiting with USC / UCLA no longer being relevant for LA kids, and Gonzaga not being able to compete moneywise.   If Lloyd comes here, he will be second fiddle to Duke every single year in NIL and recruits.  Not to mention the entire SEC and Big East for kids who want to stay in those regions to play. This is why I keep saying go get Mark Few.  Has proven he can do more with less from an X / O perspective but can also recruit All American players and compete at a high level. He's a god at Gonzaga, but for $9M he'd make the move as that's 4x what he's making at Gonzaga, and makes him the highest paid coach in the country.

      Certainly not going to miss his constant whiffs on sacks and tackles.
