Oh dear. It's too early in the morning for my mind to be filled with these dirty, dirty thoughts. From DH:
First off, it's good to see Jake's filling up his calendar with work for the future; I wouldn't want the relative (financial) non-success of the projects he's picked lately to harm his ability to grace our screens. Especially if he'll be gracing our screens with... lockerrooms... and... jockstraps... and... I'm sorry, I have to go and find a paper bag to breath into right now.

"Universal Pictures is planning a biopic of 60's American gridiron legend Joe Namath with Jake Gyllenhaal to play the Hall of Fame quarterback reports Variety.
Namath was the first football player to achieve real rock-star status. The Pennsylvania kid scored a record salary and became a sensation on the field, in nightclubs and on Madison Avenue as the first star to become a magnet for commercials.
His success was a key factor in paving the way to a merger between the then two football leagues and helped establish football as a TV sport.
David Hollander will write the script once the writers strike is over. Gyllenhall, currently filming Jim Sheridan's "Brothers," is next committed to an untitled Doug Liman sci-fi thriller."
