Since this is the 'Rumor Mill', I'll stir things up a bit:

I heard a while back (at kickoff) that there **might** be a movie in the works about FIRST. This rumor included a popular actor, Noah Wylie, to play the part of a lead engineer on a FIRST team.

I know that it takes a while for these things to develop, but if it is true, someone's gotta know more!

So, if you got info... throw the rest of us a bone or two!

lets do some casting...

I think that Ben Affleck could probably pull off a reasonable representation of me. :) :)

Colleen, you are too kind!

Sarah Michelle Gellar would do fine as Colleen Shaver.

She can be nice when she wants to, but when it comes to bashing 'bots, then she can kick some butt!

Joe should be played by Woody Harrelson, and imagine the Dew royalties. Were talking about sponsorship deals big time here. $$$$$$$

speaking of dew....

Dr. Joe-

your kids (as in the ChiefDelphi family) say you are 'infamous' for the outrageous amount of dew you drink.

how many kids (as in your home family)was it you said you had?

Jim Carrey for Joe J- a good choice.

-Erin

p.s. dew studies have nothing to prove.

How about Bridges? Not Jeff,but his dad (forgot his first name) from the original sea hunt series. He was great in some of those crazy Leslie Nielsen movies.

Beau Bridges? Isn't that his name?
Movie sounds like it would be good... but couldn't it be a documentary?
Hey- who's going to play Erin from team 1?


If any of you say that woman from Drew Carey with the blue eyeshadow, I will cry.
