Not nearly as emotionally involved as it needed to be. The story was mildly interesting, since I knew next to nothing about Marcus Dupree coming in, but beyond the simple historical perspective and cool footage of the guy balling in high school, it was otherwise nothing special.

I think you could spend an afternoon with just about any failed NFL prospect and come back with a strikingly similar story. Dupree just seems like a guy who had the world at his fingertips and didn't care enough to close his hands on it. Even when he makes his big comeback and gets some play with the Rams at the end, he seems completely ambivalent and careless.
