Synopsis

Setting: November, 1965. 
Reporter, Michael McCormick, is sent to Green Bay, Wisconsin to write a story on the famed Packer’s football coach, Vince Lombardi. While in Green Bay, Michael interacts with Vince’s wife, Marie, as well as his players to try and understand the mysterious and legendary football coach. 

Characters:

Michael McCormick (M/late 20s): A reporter trying to make a name for himself. He experiences a slice of life at the Lombardi’s for a week to write his story. 

Marie Lombardi (F/40s): A housewife, married to Vince Lombardi. A strong drinker. Her and Vince’s relationship is a complicated one, but still loving. 

Paul Hornung (M/30): A running back for the Green Bay Packers. A “Golden Boy” for Packers media. 

Dave “Robbie” Robinson (M/20s; black): An outside linebacker on the Green Bay Packers. A driven player, aiming to make Coach Lombardi proud. 

Jim Taylor (M/30): A Green Bay Packers Fullback. A very standoffish character who can’t hold his tongue. An overall bad character to have around the media. 

Vince Lombardi (M/50s): The highly regarded, slightly prickly, American Football coach of the Green Bay Packers. His life revolves around the game, and during the season he allows the sport to consume him. Always the competitor, he pushes his players to the limit, and is very careful about how much information he lets out to the media.
