...receiver Kevin Dyson had just reached the end zone--and if the Titans had gone on to beat the St. Louis Rams in Super Bowl XXXIV--we'd be memorializing McNair, who was murdered at age 36 on July 4, as an NFL legend. Instead, we'll recall the quarterback, who was reared in small-town Mississippi and drafted out of tiny Alcorn State (Miss.)

While Washington and Travolta are certified stars who can get movies greenlit, they don't often make blockbusters. 2. The audience for R-rated films, necessarily limited by age, was still flocking to The Hangover. 3. Pelham is a remake of a 1974 thriller that didn't exactly acquire legendary status. 4.
