Just watched the Under Armour commercial featuring former Bears coach Mike Ditka.
In it, Ditka shows some solid acting chops.
"I didn't come out of retirement to coach a bunch of mama's boys," he says.
Later, he mockingly said, " 'Hi momma, coach Ditka hurt my feelings.' "
Ditka then is told that he's coaching high school players, as part of the 2011 Under Armour All-America High School football game in St. Petersburg, Fla.
"Maybe I ought to drop this line about whining about their contracts, too, huh?" Ditka says.
Ditka will be coaching opposite Steve Mariucci. The game takes place Jan. 5 and will be televised on ESPN.
Not his first foray into acting. He had a significant role in the Will Ferrell movie, Kicking and Screaming. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0384642/
