funny film

Funny film from the writer of Letterman and other cool shows. What happened? Why is this gem not seeing the light of day?? Mark Boone Jr is funny and the film is wry and sweet. Story is about a small town football hero who is about to have his record broken and he becomes despondent. Meanwhile his son is a band geek and gay, his wife is cheating on him with his jerk of a brother and the local priest wants to save him....all the right fixings for a funny cocktail. Plus his two best friends are like the barflys on Cheers. If you get a chance try to see this film before it becomes like the Oklahoma dust bowl... and disappears.

Looking for this movie

This movie was filmed in Porter Oklahoma. I am looking for a way to get a copy of it. I had a small role in it. If anyone has any info on this movie please let me know. It was very exciting for our small town. There is a lot of people who would be very happy to find a way to purchase a copy. If anyone could help with this it would be great.
