Really looking forward to this.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9RHqdZDCF0

Harrison Ford as Branch Rickey looks very promising.  Plus it's a fascinating piece of history.  

I've needed a baseball fix lately for this long off-season.  My team has had their true identity restored, so  I've replaced my daily hat and t-shirts.  It's gotten so bad that I've been watching old games from the 80s.  I have several in their entirety.

his story was already made into a movie.   Staring Jackie Robinson as himself.

Yeah.  It's interesting because it actually has him playing himself.  Beyond that, it's a very sterilized version of what went on.  Typical 1950s Hollywood.

Looks really good. But couldn't they get Johnny Depp to play Robinson?
