Over Time

A letter travels twenty years and thousands of miles to reach its intended recipient: Dan Wilson, president of his family's multimillion-dollar business in Phoenix, Arizona. Dan is known for his impulsive, risk taking management style, which is often tempered by his beautiful, cautious chief financial officer, Charlotte Ann "Charlie" Travis.

The letter is from Dan's great friend, Mark Reid, who played college football with Dan and died in a car accident just after realizing his dream of becoming a Green Bay Packer TM pro football player. Mark's friends never understood why he seemed to be driving away from training camp the night he died. The letter reminds Dan of the pledge Dan, Mark and two other friends made to have a twenty-year reunion. Mark was engaged to Kelly McCluskey, the team's head cheerleader, who is now struggling to save a charitable organization she started in his memory. The other friend is Mike Thornton, hilarious jokester in college, the complete opposite of a jock, now a bright attorney who still wishes he could have been part of Dan and Mark's football glory. At the reunion Dan finds that his "team" from college, though separated by time, distance and even death, is still very much together.

Dan, pressured by a series of seemingly unrelated negative events that effect his company, Wilson Industries, and the contemplated acquisition of a Cable TV network, is lured into a trap set by Gerald Krauss, who invests in and then cannibalizes companies, a true 'vulture capitalist'. It seems inevitable that Krauss will take over and dismantle Wilson Industries.

The acquisition of the Cable TV network is a risky deal as the network is incurring huge losses. But it has the rights to broadcast several NFL TM games, including a home game between the Green Bay Packers TM and the Dallas Boys, during which there will be a reunion of the Packers' TM 1966 Championship Team.

Dan, Mike, Kelly and Charlie must find a way to turn the broadcast of that one NFL TM game into a national blockbuster with Super Bowl-like ratings. It all comes down to game day and the greatest Green Bay Packer TM who never played a game.
