Just got back from Hollywood. The Ambassador's Son was optioned by a major studio. Thank you. That's not the news. I was at a party and a director was being toasted because his new movie had just been green lit. I asked him later what it was about and he said "college football." I was naturally stunned since I was thinking about writing a script about c-f according to the wishes of my brother. And so I asked him who was in it and he said, "My coach is going to be Richard Gere." That's right. That's what he said.
That's all I know except it starts shooting in May. Keep googling Richard Gere and eventually somebody will tell us more.

Maybe Gere will play the Bahr. It would serve Bama fans right.

Actually, I could see Richard Gere playing The Glen Freaking Mason.
Either that, or Bob Davie.
He'd need to put on a few pounds to play Jim Colletto.

One of the coolest guys I ever met was named Claud. I wanted to name our son that, but my wife rejected it. We're not French, apparently. Well, neither was Claud. He was just a "good old boy" from Western Ky.

Are you sure the movie plot wasn't going to be about a former Gator quarterback who goes on this reality show where a bunch of wimmins falls all over him?
