4 out of 5 stars ****
An enjoyable look at life through the eyes of a college football athlete known for his remarkable role in a miraculous play. This protagonist is played by John Cena who is very appropriate for the part. The 64th man is the last player cut from a professional roster and it sends this dejected individual into years of discovery that life is more than football. A love interest spices up the action along the way with an on-again-off-again relationship. The humor works because of the apt portrayals by supporting characters. That cast comes from a background in comedy, mainly Saturday Night Live (SNL) alumni. This listen is actually a reading from a 10 episode series that could be enacted on the TV airwaves but instead is an audio performance.
