Ever wonder what would happen if there was a movie made about the big game? Of course not. But people are always doing fictional "casting calls" around the net, so I thought it was high time that some of the greatest "separated at births" were gathered together for a fictitious movie that will never be made. Your cast includes...

dr. hibbert! priceless!
We have to make sure our starting cornerback doesn't urinate on any 15 year old girls
Byron Leftwich should be played by "Fat Albert" Kenan Thompson.
Other than that; comedy gold.
Actually I was thinking Byron Leftwich should be played by Gary Coleman...
http://www.sportaphile.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/leftwich-colemany.jpg
I think I saw Darnell Stapleton hosting The View the other day. (My girlfriend was watching it...I swear!)
Limas Sweed should be played by "Hot Hands" Hanon from The Little Giants or Clifford Franklin(Orlando Jones)from The Replacements
i think whisenhunt should be played by woody harrelson, but otherwise this is hilarious.
http://gagathemovies.com/cast/Woody%20Harrelson.jpg
agreed... keenan is the only option for byron leftwich
What about Casey Hampton? Whoever you pick, won't you need 2 of 'em?
