Sports Pages

THE SPORTS PAGES consists of two short comedies exploring the impact of professional sports on the lives of everyday people. The first story, HOW DOC WADDEMS FINALLY BROKE 100, concerns a golfing fanatic (Bob Newhart) on trial for the murder of his putting partner (Kelsey Grammer), who had been tormenting him throughout their game. The second story, THE HEIDI BOWL, is a fictionalized recreation of the infamous 1968 Super Bowl broadcast, in which a rookie technician cut off the last few seconds of the very tense game and switched programming to the children's film HEIDI.
