...That's the name of the hard-pressed fictional franchise featured in George Clooney's Leatherheads, in which the director stars as an aging, wise-guy running back named Dodge Connolly, who may have lost a few steps on the field but is yards ahead of most people in sensing pro football's glittering future. That potential is personified by Carter Rutherford (John Krasinski) who has it all: he's a war hero, a snake-hipped runner and cute as all get out. He is a version of Red Grange, who came out of Illinois, signed a huge contract with...

Wow! In this age of self-centered, ego-driven tabloid stars, it's nice to know there's someone out there to whom Paul Newman can hand the torch. Kevin Statham, Sanger, Calif...
