However Michael Keaton who played Mr. mom was the best Batman, so you never know.

It's a Happy Madison movie. So Adam Sandler stuff.

Well, turns out it is going to be a comedy about his coaching youth ball.

For those that think Kevin James can’t show intensity...

Chapter one: Taking over the Saints.

Chapter two: Vicodin.

The rest is still on the drawing boards.Lol

The real question is who is going to play Drew?

The Vicodin affair wasn't Payton. It was Joe Vitt. When the story first came out that a high ranking Saints official had been caught taking Vicodin from the medical cabinet some people incorrectly speculated that it was Payton with no proof. It was later discovered that it was Vitt and he had been caught on security cameras red-handed. This is one of the worst things about the internet. The incorrect rumors that won't die.

Apr 15, 2013 — Assistant coach Joe Vitt reportedly entered a pre-trial diversion program in the Vicodin case.

As for the movie, it appears it is only going to cover his time coaching his son's team in youth football.

I would like to see a Netflix movie featuring Kevin James as Matt Ryan in the Super Bowl attempting to protect a 28-3 lead against the Patriots. Ryan certainly looked like James on the field, athletically, in that 4th quarter. Tyler Perry could play Julio Jones. Maybe it could be a Freaky Friday, Big, or
being John Markovich type scenario where an actor or kid or someone switched into their bodies during the game and doesnt know how to
play football.

I don’t know the man personally obviously, but I would be careful about doubting James athletic ability. I’ve heard knowledgeable people tout his MMA skills and apparently he was a varsity halfback and captain of his high school wrestling team which also had future WWE star Mick Foley on it. Apparently serious back injuries caught up to him. I doubt he’s Paul Blart in real life.

P.S. His wife is a hottie too!

He could probably hold a 28-3 lead for a little over a quarter.
