Synopsis
Based on an award-winning Coca-Cola commercial, the program relates the story of a nine-year-old boy who learns about values, discipline, and relationships when he is temporarily adopted by football star Mean Joe Greene, along with the other members of his team, the Pittsburgh Steelers. The men, in turn, are affected and inspired by the boy's love of football. A strange, sad, bittersweet tale of bitterness, and sweetness, and the power of love!
