Since it has turned into a football player who cant act conversation.

I think it's players who could play and not act, where as Bosworth couldn't do either!

Easy to be a good actor when the source material is good, like the UnderArmor piece. There wasn't much to his Entourage bit so its no surprise he sucked. Only truly trained actors can make bland stuff seem natural.
quarterbacks don't have a history of translating well into movies
Dan Marino in Ace Ventura
Brett Favre in Something About Mary
talk about AWFUL performances
At least Favre's appearance in Mary was short... much like his time with the Falcons, Jets, and Vikings.

His photography and modeling careers were short too.
I bet there are thousands of actors who could have played the parts in Seinfeld as long as Larry David was doing the writing.
so...you'd replace Jerry Seinfeld himself, as the lead in "The Jerry Seinfeld Show"....I just gotta ask...thousands and thousands, huh?...uh...like say...Charlie Sheen?...or...uh...Christopher Walken?...I got it...Sly Stallone would have made a boffo Jerry...can you see Mel Brooks opposite Kramer???comedy gold I tell ya!!
I'm glad that you brought up Charlie Sheen, because he's a great example of what I'm talking about. Had the writers of Two and a Half Men kept the same concept in their writing, the smart-ass one liner type lines directed at Alan and the kid, and replaced Sheen with any one of a number of actors it probably would have worked.
